Examining mating from the male perspective, this book provides an
overview of mammalian reproduction to illustrate the important role
that male desire plays in the life of mammals. Written in a
conversational style that will appeal to those without specialist
knowledge of the field, it begins with a broad overview of sexual
reproduction in mammals, explaining the importance of mixing genes,
sexual selection and the concept of mating seasons. Subsequent
chapters examine some of the most important aspects in detail
including mating behaviour, the structure and function of the male
organs of reproduction and their physiological control and modes of
copulation. A final chapter considers human reproduction,
explaining how our physical and social evolution have contributed
to the development of sexual behaviour that is markedly different
to that of other mammals, due in particular to the absence of
oestrus and seasonality in the human female.
