内容説明
A critical analysis of scientific research on sexual orientation, its methodological and ontological assumptions and its ethical implications. The book argues that we are far from understanding how human sexual desires originate and that our thinking about sexual orientations and the issues relating to them are based on unfounded cultural assumptions on sexual orientation. In a clear, careful and accessible style, the book examines and extends contemporary thinking about human sexual desire.
