An engaging manual exploring the many scientific, practical, and emotional aspects of pleasure, for you and your partner(s).

An empowering re-education to fix our broken sexual culture.

Dispelling the myth that everyone else is having perfect sex, or even that there is such a thing, The Science of Sex explores taboos, debunks myths, and brings together the latest research on a topic that has preoccupied the vast majority for millennia. Reframing assumptions about sex, and moving away from a shame-based approach to a pleasure-focused, biopsychosocial one, Kate Moyle, a certified psycho-sexologist and relationship therapist, aims to encourage curiosity and pleasure, open up a variety of perspectives and voices, build awareness and discovery, and enable readers to think about sex holistically.

With a question-and-answer format directly addressing the reader, you can discover the sex you like having and move to a place of more acceptance, less judgement, and the freedom to be curious.

Up to date and inclusive of all genders, bodies, and sexualities, this is a sex re-education, empowering you to explore your preferences, expand your horizons, and maximise you and your partner(s)' potential for rewarding, and intimate sex.
