Product Description

Review
?This book certainly presents a thoughtful, thorough and critical exploration of the subject matter. The text is not a light read, and this is mainly because so much material is drawn upon and as many questions emerge from the discussion as are answered. The questions raised, however, challenge assumptions and propel the reader to explore right to the very corners of this fascinating subject. This text should be of value to anyone interested in learning more about the human experience.?-Sexual and Relationship Therapy

Relationship Research News, Fall 2005
'an absolute "must-read" for all graduate students and researchers interested in sexuality and close relationships'. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars A really important contribution to the topic, 30 Oct 2005
This review is from: The Nature of Sexual Desire (Critical Perspectives on Culture & Society) (Hardcover)
Dr Giles writes with both humour and integrity. His approach is existential phenomenalism. This approach requires that a range of cross cultural sources is examined to find out whether there are any universal aspects of experience underlying sexual desire. This approach differs from for instance more post modern 'social constructivist' approaches where sexual desire is constructed, potentially in completely different ways across different cultural contexts.

Well worth reading but would be nice if the publishers considered a paperback edition to bring it to a wider audience!
