Turning Freud's famous dictum around, Thomas Laqueur posits that destiny is anatomy. Sex, in other words, is an artifice and "Making Sex" tells the story of sex in the west from the ancients to the moderns. The reader cannot fail to recognize the players in Laqueur's story - the human sexual organs and pleasures, food, blood, semen, egg, sperm - but the reader will be amazed at the plots into which they have been woven by scientists, political activists, literary figures, and theorists of every discipline. The book looks at how our predecessors, including physicians and scientists, thought about anatomy and analyzes our ideas on gender.

更新我xing知識的同時,argue about how scientific research is manipulated by cultural notion..作者隻是太critical thinking所以容易令人confused
評分按需。
評分我想說,這不是文學,這是生物學+哲學,非常daring的理論,書架上的一本好書
評分嗬……詞匯真豐富……
評分經典就是經典嘛。研究18世紀以前西方對於身體的“哲學”和18世紀以後西方對身體的“科學”,從不學術的角度看著挺奇幻小說的
