[ebook] Our Sexuality - Robert L. Cooks
"Our Sexuality" by Robert L. Cooks is a respected and authoritative college textbook on human sexuality. The latest edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect current research findings and presents information in a direct and non-judgmental manner.
This edition emphasizes the impact of politics on sexuality, providing sensitive and comprehensive coverage. The authors aim to enhance healthy communication among partners and have revised their content to focus on maintaining responsible and healthy sexual relationships, with increased attention to diversity and inclusiveness. A notable feature is "Sex and Politics," which explores how value judgments influence public policy and their implications for sexual knowledge and choices. For instance, the book highlights the removal of condom information from the CDC website in favor of abstinence-only education, despite a lack of empirical support for this approach. Additionally, the "Author's Files" section includes real-life stories that enrich the text.
