Over from Barcelona is Christopher Ryan, who, with Cacilda Jethá, is author of a hugely popular new work, Sex at Dawn: The Prehistoric Origins of Human Sexuality (Harper). The attention that has come the way of this book which was originally published in fairly low-key manner is highlighted by The Stranger's Dan Savage and his ardent championing of the research, findings, and conclusions made by the authors. This should be a good and lively one. "One of the most original books I've read in years. Sex at Dawn manages to be both enormously erudite and wildly entertaining—even, frequently, hilarious. Ryan and Jethá slip effortlessly across millions of years, from prehistoric Africa to the contemporary bedroom, presenting cutting-edge research with clarity and wit. A must-read for anyone interested in where our sexual impulses come from ..." - Tony Perrottet. "The single most important book on human sexuality since Kinsey unleashed Sexual Behavior of the Human Male on the American public in 1948." - Dan Savage, The Stranger.
