A landmark achievement in the scientific study of human sexuality, The Encyclopedia of Sexual Behavior stands as one of the most ambitious and authoritative reference works ever assembled on the subject. Edited by the renowned psychologist Albert Ellis alongside Albert Abarbanel, this sweeping compendium presents a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary examination of sexual behavior across cultures, societies, and throughout history — drawing on contributions from some of the most distinguished scholars and clinicians of the twentieth century. Far more than a simple reference guide, this encyclopedic work chronicles the full spectrum of human sexual experience, from biological and psychological dimensions to anthropological, legal, and sociological perspectives. Ellis, a towering figure in the development of rational emotive behavior therapy and a pioneering voice in sexual liberalism, brings his characteristic intellectual rigor and unflinching candor to every entry. The result is a work of enduring scholarly significance — one that challenged the taboos and moral conventions of its era, and left an indelible mark on the fields of psychology and sexology. For students, researchers, and curious minds alike, it remains a formidable and fascinating gateway into the science of human intimacy.
