Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. A much-needed exploration of the history and philosophy of scientific research into male homosexuality. Questions about the naturalness or unnaturalness of homosexuality are as old as the hills, and the answers have often been used to condemn homosexuals, their behaviors, and their relationships. In the past two centuries, a number of sciences have involved themselves in this debate, introducing new vocabularies, theories, arguments, and data, many of which have gradually helped tip the balance toward tolerance and even acceptance. In this book, philosophers Pieter R. Adriaens and Andreas De Block explore the history and philosophy of the gay sciences, revealing how individual and societal values have colored how we think about homosexuality. The authors unpack the entanglement of facts and values in studies of male homosexuality across the natural and human sciences and consider the extent to which science has mitigated or reinforced homonegative mores. The focus of the book is on homosexuality's assumed naturalness. Geneticists rephrased naturalness as innateness, claiming that homosexuality is innate-colloquially, that homosexuals are born gay. Zoologists thought it a natural affair, documenting its existence in myriad animal species, from maybugs to men. Evolutionists presented homosexuality as the product of natural selection and speculated about its adaptive value. Finally, psychiatrists, who initially pathologized homosexuality, eventually appealed to its naturalness or innateness to normalize it. Discussing findings from an array of sciences-comparative zoology, psychiatry, anthropology, evolutionary biology, social psychology, developmental biology, and machine learning-this book is essential reading for anyone interested in what science has to say about homosexuality.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Very Good. 243 pagina's, illustraties Text Dutch Ondertitel op omslag: een filosofische blik op wetenschap en homoseksualiteit. Met literatuuropgave. Bespreking van verschillende studies over homoseksualiteit vanuit verschillende wetenschappelijke disciplines, met een analyse van de uitkomsten vanuit een filosofische invalshoek. Waarheid en leugen achter de gangbare theoriee?n rond homoseksualiteit Is homoseksualiteit nuttig? Kunnen meikevers homoseksueel zijn? Waarom is homofobie een ziekte, maar homoseksualiteit niet? Wetenschappers geven vaak prikkelende antwoorden op vragen over homoseksualiteit. Maar houden hun antwoorden wel steek? In dit boek brengen twee filosofen klaarheid in oud en nieuw onderzoek uit de homowetenschappen. Ze bespreken studies over criminele pingui?ns, hitsige suikerooms en homoseksuele tweelingen. Daarbij doen ze wat wetenschapsfilosofen gewoonlijk doen: lastige vragen stellen en zekerheden doorprikken. Want wat verstaan wetenschappers eigenlijk onder 'homoseksualiteit'? En kan hun werk een rol spelen in de strijd tegen homofobie? Born This Way is een verrassend veelzijdig, toegankelijk en filosofisch boek over wetenschap en homoseksualiteit.
