As the field of sexuality studies has become a growth area in
academia and classes on sexuality studies are incorporated into
various disciplines, the expanding book market has been filled with
specialist oriented texts which are often theoretically focused and
contain too many summaries for an undergraduate audience.
Addressing this imbalance, this key new volume presents the field
of sexuality in an accessible and engaging way for undergraduates.
Breaking new ground, both substantively and stylistically, this
book offers students, academics and researchers an accessible,
engaging introduction and overview of this emerging field. Its
central premise is to explore the social character of sexuality,
the role of social differences such as race or nationality in
creating sexual variation, and the ways sex is entangled in
relations of power and inequality. Through this novel approach, the
field of sexuality is considered, for the first time, in
multicultural, global, and comparative terms and from a truly
social perspective. This important volume consists of over fifty
short and original essays on the key topics and themes in sexuality
studies, and interviews with twelve leading scholars in the field
which convey some of the most innovative work being done. Each
contribution clearly conveys the latest research with examples.
Ideal for students of gender and sexuality studies, this topical
and timely volume will be an invaluable resource to all those with
an interest in sexuality studies.
