Rezensionen

"This excellent book brings together cutting edge theory with a wide range of ethnographic evidence. It is a fascinating account of sexuality and all its many facets, raising issues of power, pleasure, taboo and more. An intriguing and engrossing read. - Heather Montgomery, Senior Lecturer in Childhood Studies, The Open University This volume not only brings sex - finally - into the centre of a discipline concerned with the different ways that people deal with the basics of human life, it is also a perfect combination of cross-cultural comparison and fieldwork examples at its best. - Dieter Haller, Chair for Social Anthropology, Ruhr-Universität Bochum"
