Bi: The Hidden Culture, History, and Science of Bisexuality
Description :
A provocative, eye-opening, and original book on the science of
sexuality beyond gender from an internationally bestselling poppsychologistDespite
all the welcome changes that have happened in
our culture and laws over the past few decades in regards to
sexuality, the subject remains one of the most influential but least
understood aspects of our lives. For psychologist and bestselling
author Julia Shaw, this is both professional and
personal—Shaw studies the science of sexuality and she
herself is proudly and vocally bisexual. It’s an admission, she
writes, that usually causes people’s pupils to dilate, their
cheeks to flush, and their questions to start flowing. Ask people to
name famous bisexual actors, politicians, writers, or scientists, and
they draw a blank. Despite statistics that show bisexuality is more
common than homosexuality, bisexuality is often invisible. In BI:
The Hidden Culture, History, and Science of Bisexuality, Shaw
probes the science and culture of attraction beyond the binary. From
the invention of heterosexuality to the history of the Kinsey scale, as
well as asylum seekers trying to defend their bisexuality in a court of
law, there is so much more to explore than most have ever realized.
Drawing on her own original research—and her own
experiences—this is a personal and scientific manifesto
it’s an exploration of the complexities of the human sexual
experience and a declaration of love and respect for the
nonconformists among us.
