Note publique d'information : "To find out why people have sex, Curt Lively trawls a New Zealand lake for mud snails.
Mayte Parada puts volunteers in an MRI scanner and turns on the porn. Andrea Ganna
searches the genomes of half a million Brits. Almond-scented rats, Genghis Khan's
family tree, Pornhub statistics-it's all in a day's work for sex researchers. This
book introduces readers to sex researchers and explains the questions they are asking
and the methods they are using to discover the answers. Renowned sex researcher Simon
LeVay asks: Why do humans have sex? What happens in the brain when we're getting it
on? How do 'kinks' develop? What is love? And many other topics-some frivolous, some
tragically serious-all studied by fearless but fallible researchers. Sex, they have
shown, is as worthy of scientific inquiry as any other facet of human nature
