Description
"One of a kind - very few scholars, surprisingly, have written so engagingly on the nature and varieties of sexual attraction." Elaine Hatfield, Professor of Psychology, University of Hawaii, USA
"Illuminating." Terri L. Orbruch, Professor of Sociology, Oakland University, USA
"Will make you think deeply about this rarely explored phenomenon." Robert Scott Stewart, Professor of Philosophy, Cape Breton University, Canada
"Highly recommended reading for those who want a smart, articulate, and engaging investigation of the diverse body of sexual attraction research." Heidi Reeder, Associate Professor of Communication, Boise State University, USA
Although the causes and effects of sexual attraction have been studied, sexual attraction itself-how we experience others in terms of their sexual attractiveness-remains a neglected, rarely researched topic. Philosopher and psychologist Dr. James Giles presents jargon-free information that is accessible and fascinating to the everyday reader as well as highly useful and informative to students and researchers in social psychology, sexology, sex and marital therapy, and relationship counselling. The book explores subjects and types of relationship including:
- How sexual attraction is fundamentally different from other forms of interpersonal attraction
- How at the heart of sexual attraction lies the experience of allure-something that makes one feel helplessly drawn toward an intimate physical joining with the sexually attractive person
- Cross-sex friendships and whether women and men can ever be 'just friends'? Can sexual relations actually enhance and strengthen the friendship without turning it into a romantic relationship?
- Can you be in love with someone you don't actually like?
- Friends with benefits
- Romantic partnerships
