Description

Explore the evolution of human sexuality with this classic work from the Routledge Library Editions. Originally published in 1977, Sin, Sickness and Sanity provides a deep look into how myth, misinformation, and taboo have shaped our understanding of sexual nature throughout history. This book examines diverse cultural phenomena across different eras and belief systems. You will find detailed accounts ranging from Greek dualistic thought and Buddhist philosophy to the practices of early Christian sects and homosexual practices among the Arabs. It offers a clear examination of Victorian theories regarding masturbation and madness, as well as the sexist dogmas that limited feminine potential. By studying social attitudes towards abortion over time and other historical shifts, readers gain a comprehensive summary of our collective knowledge of the past. This extensively researched volume is an essential resource for those interested in the anthropology and sociology of human behavior and cultural history.
