Extracts from the pioneers of sexology (dating from 1880-1940), are presented in this text. Issues covered are: gender/sexual difference, homosexuality, transsexuality and bisexuality, heterosexuality, marriage and sex manuals, reproductive control, eugenics, race and various sexual proclivities.
The early pioneers of the new field of sexology examined and classified sexual behaviours, identities and relations. For years much of the material has been "censored" in the sense that it has been difficult to obtain. This text brings together many of those documents of the modern science of sexuality. The extracts cover a variety of topics, including gender and sexual difference, homosexuality, trans-sexuality and bisexuality, heterosexuality, marriage and sex manuals, reproductive control, eugenics, race and various sexual proclivities.

Laura Doan is professor of cultural history and sexuality studies at the University of Manchester. She is the author of Fashioning Sapphism: The Origins of a Modern English Lesbian Culture and editor of Sexology in Culture: Labeling Bodies and Desires, among other books.
