Jeffrey Weeks, one of the most original and influential writers on
the social history of sexuality, brings together in this book some
of his most important work on the changing patterns of our sexual
and intimate lives today.
The first part of the book discusses writers on sexuality, from
Havelock Ellis to more recent influential thinkers such as Michel
Foucault. It gives an account of the social and political context
in which they wrote, and assesses how their work has shaped our
concepts of sexuality and intimacy. The second part of the book
explores the ways in which sociologists and historians have been
rethinking sexuality, and how "the erotic" is being reinvented by
new sexual and social movements. It examines the impact of AIDS as
well as the gradual changes which have transformed personal lives
in this century, and concludes with a review of attitudes and ideas
at the end of the millennium.
