Anthony Giddens (London School of Economics and Political Science)

The Transformation of Intimacy

Sexuality, Love and Eroticism in Modern Societies

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The sexual revolution: an evocative term, but what meaning can be given to it today? How does sexuality come into being and what connections does it have with the changes that have affected personal life on a more general plane? This book answers such questions and disputes many of the interpretations of the role of sexuality in modern culture.
