This monumental two-volume compendium chronicles the full breadth of human sexual behavior — from the evolution of modesty and sexual periodicity to auto-erotism, the sexual impulse, love and pain, erotic symbolism, and the relationship of sex to society — presenting each subject with the rigorous empirical scrutiny of a dedicated naturalist and the compassionate insight of a humanist.\n\nHavelock Ellis, the pioneering British sexologist and social reformer, argues with remarkable intellectual courage that sexuality is a natural, complex, and deeply personal dimension of human experience deserving serious scientific inquiry rather than moral condemnation. Published at a time when such candor was both radical and legally dangerous, this landmark work laid the intellectual groundwork for the sexual science that would follow in the 20th century, influencing figures from Sigmund Freud to Alfred Kinsey. For anyone who wishes to understand the origins of modern sexual psychology, this beautifully produced Random House edition remains an essential and irreplaceable artifact of intellectual history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49160808956123,"sku":"2026100009846-SECONDHAND","price":95.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/894a52d4-f568-4267-b825-b7400e0ddf30.png?v=1787187691","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009846-secondhand-studies-in-the-psychology-of-sex-two-volume-set","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
