Introducing the New Sexuality Studies: Original Essays is an
innovative, reader-friendly collection of essays that introduces
the field of sexuality studies to undergraduate students. Examining
the social, cultural, and historical dimensions of sexuality, this
collection is designed to serve as a comprehensive yet accessible
textbook for sexuality courses at the undergraduate level. The
fourth edition adds 51 new essays whilst retaining 33 of the most
popular essays from previous editions. It features perspectives
that are intersectional, transnational, sex positive, and attentive
to historically marginalized groups along multiple axes of
inequality, including gender, race, class, ability, body size,
religious identity, age, and, of course, sexuality. Essays explore
how a wide variety of social institutions, including medicine,
religion, the state, and education, shape sexual desires,
behaviors, and identities. Sources of, and empirical research on,
oppression are discussed, along with modes of resistance, activism,
and policy change. The fourth edition also adds new user-friendly
features for students and instructors. Keywords are italicized and
defined, and each chapter concludes with review questions to help
students ascertain their comprehension of key points. There is also
an online annotated table of contents to help readers identify key
ideas and concepts at a glance for each chapter.
