Written with a wry wink and a smile, Roach's account of the science of sex is a well written book of popular science. She looks at the history of sexual studies like the Kinsey Report and the research of Masters and Johnson, and also recounts the cutting edge science of fertility and erectile dysfunction. The best part of the book is her dry sense of humor, never taking her subject too seriously, but never ridiculing it either. Fans of either popular science or sandpaper dry humor will enjoy this book.
