What is meant by innocence, passion, love and arousal, desire, perversion and shame? These are just a few of the questions Roger Scruton addresses in this thought-provoking intellectual adventure. Beginning from purely philosophical premises, and ranging over human life, art and institutions, he surveys the entire field of sexuality; equally dissatisfied with puritanism and permissiveness, he argues for a radical break with recent theories. Upholding traditional morality - though in terms that may shock many of its practitioners - his argument gravitates to that which is candid, serene and consoling in the experience of sexual love.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Problem Arousal Persons Desire The individual object Sexual phenomena The science of sex Love Perversion Sexual Morality The Politics of Sex","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51768206328151,"sku":"9780826480385","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780826480385.jpg?v=1758716856","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/sexual-desire-9780826480385","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
