Synopsis

Designed for courses in Human Sexuality, which may be found in several departments, such as psychology, health, sociology, biology, gender and women's studies, human ecology and physical education.

This text takes a fresh approach to the study of human sexuality. It provides the latest scientific findings in the field and helps students acquire a broader view of human sexual experience by examining multiple perspectives on human sexuality. The historical, biological, cultural, and sociological perspectives are all examined in this text. Essentials of Human Sexuality, Canadian Edition, connects four key themes throughout the text: 1) The rich diversity found in gender roles, sexual attitudes, sexual behaviours and customs in Canada and around the world 2) critical thinking; 3) making responsible sexual decisions; and 4) sexual health. Students will find this practical, hands-on approach to the study of human sexuality a relevant and enriching experience.
