Summary, etc. 'Expansive and accessible, Peter Stearns' Sexuality in World History offers a much needed introduction to histories of sexuality from a global perspective.' – Mary Spongberg- Head of Department of Modern History, Macquarie University, USA<br/><br/>This book examines sexuality in the past, and explores how it helps explain sexuality in the present. The subject of sexuality is often a controversial one, and exploring it through a world history perspective emphasises the extent to which societies, including our own, are still reacting to historical change through contemporary sexual behaviours, values, and debates.<br/><br/>The study uses a clear chronological structure to focus on major patterns and changes in sexuality – both sexual culture and sexual behaviours – in the main periods of world history, with comparison and discussion across cultures and societies. Topics covered include:<br/><br/>issues involved in studying the history of sexuality<br/>the sexual implications of the transition from hunting and gathering economies to agricultural economies<br/>sexuality in Classical societies<br/>the post-Classical period and the spread of the world religions<br/>sex in an age of trade and colonies<br/>changes in sexual behaviours and sexual attitudes between 1750 and 1950<br/>sex in contemporary world history.<br/>The book is a vital contribution to the study of world history, and is the perfect companion for all students of the history of sexuality.
