The Philosophy of Love and Sex by Clancy Martin
A new, annotated reader, The Philosophy of Love and Sex, presents not only classic readings on love and sex from a diverse selection of philosophical perspectives, but also groundbreaking work in this rapidly changing field. Unlike existing readers, this comprehensive reader takes an interdisciplinary approach, choosing to include the voices of philosophers and philosophically minded thinkers from many different traditions, emphasizing not only the core writers who have defined the tradition, such as Plato and Stendhal, but work as recent as 2015 from feminists, transgendered persons, and others.
The authors' willingness to step out of the philosophy bubble, while still offering a solid grounding in the stand bys of the field, is a welcome and, I think, needed change"* Ruth Tallman, Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Barry University *
This book offers undergraduate students the perfect balance between accessibility and intellectual rigor". * Nancy Williams, Associate Professor of Philosophy at Wofford College *
While [the authors'] include some critical classical readings, it is clear that they do not allow the weight of tradition to hold them back. Rather, it appears to me that this volume's construction is led by: the editors' experience with teaching students and what excites them, and what is most present and challenging in contemporary scholarship. * Sarah LaChance Adams, Associate Professor of Philosophy at University of Wisconsin, Superior *
