A WATERSTONES BEST BOOK OF 2022: POLITICS Significant strides have
been made in recent years in the movement for LGBTQ+ rights,
visibility and empowerment, but the conversation is far from over.
After years of feeling the crushing dearth of information on
bisexuality, psychological scientist and bestselling author Dr
Julia Shaw dug deep and found a colourful and fascinating world
that she is bringing out of the shadows. It is a personal journey
that starts with her own openly bisexual identity, and celebrates
the resilience and beautiful diversity of the bi community. In Bi:
The Hidden Culture, History and Science of Bisexuality, Shaw
explores all that we know about the world's largest sexual
minority. From the hunt for a bi gene, to the relationship between
bisexuality and consensual non-monogamy, to asylum seekers who need
to prove their bisexuality in a court of law, there is more to
explore than most have ever realised. This rigorous and fun book
will challenge us to think deeper about who we are and how we love.
