Comprehensive and interdisciplinary, this handbook is written by leading researchers investigating evolutionary perspectives on sexual psychology and behavior, providing a rich overview of the most important work in the field. Volume 4 addresses controversies and unresolved issues, applications, and non-human primate evolved sexual psychology.
The interface of sexual behavior and evolutionary psychology is a rapidly growing domain, rich in psychological theories and data as well as controversies and applications. With nearly eighty chapters by leading researchers from around the world, and combining theoretical and empirical perspectives, The Cambridge Handbook of Evolutionary Perspectives on Sexual Psychology is the most comprehensive and up-to-date reference work in the field. Providing a broad yet in-depth overview of the various evolutionary principles that influence all types of sexual behaviors, the handbook takes an inclusive approach that draws on a number of disciplines and covers nonhuman and human psychology. It is an essential resource for both established researchers and students in psychology, biology, anthropology, medicine, and criminology, among other fields. Volume 4: Controversies, Applications, and Nonhuman Primate Extensions addresses controversies and unresolved issues; applications to health, law, and pornography; and non-human primate evolved sexual psychology.

Todd K. Shackelford is Distinguished Professor and Chair in the Department of Psychology and Director of the Center for Evolutionary Psychological Science at Oakland University in Michigan, USA.
