Studies in Human Sexuality: A Selected Guide

Frayser, an anthropologist active in research on human sexuality, and Whitby, a professor of librarianship, have revised and expanded their well-received 1987 guide to the literature of human sexuality. Their purpose, explained in the preface, is to provide scholars, professionals, students, and laypersons with a comprehensive guide to the best books in English. Coverage is broad and includes medicine, psychology, anthropology, sociology, religion, law, education, history, literature, and the arts. The preface also notes trends in publication and the growth of the literature.
