About the book
Christopher Ryan and Cacilda Jethá present a provocative thesis on human sexuality based on anthropological, archaeological, and biological evidence. The book questions the conventional Western narrative of ancestral monogamy and proposes that humans evolved in a context of more fluid and shared sexuality.
Through accessible research, the book examines sexual behaviors in hunter-gatherer cultures and primates, suggesting that modern sexual repression and the institution of compulsory monogamy are, historically speaking, anomalies. A work that provokes reflection on relationships, gender, and sexual identity, challenging readers to rethink deeply held assumptions about human nature.
