The Social Dimension of Sex Zusammenfassung

The Social Dimension of Sex Roy F. Baumeister

A contemporary, provocative exploration of the social dimension of sexuality, with a focus on applying research findings.

Much of the scientific writing about sex has focused on the inner, biological processes and clinical problems and treatments, neglecting the important social dimension of sexuality. This unique volume merges research in social psychology and human sexuality, using themes from social psychology to shed light on sexual behavior and demonstrate how sexual behavior is shaped by social surroundings.
