New titles: How Sex Got Screwed Up (Book One and Book Two)

History has a lot to answer for when it comes to sex. Something that becomes highly apparent when reading Jon Knowles’ two-part publication (Book One: From the Stone Age to the Enlightenment, Book Two: From Victoria to Our Own Times). Laying bare the historical discourses that continue to define our attitudes to sex and gender, Knowles expertly weaves together a fascinating and informative account of sex from the Stone Age to the 21st century. In the year that saw Australia’s first gay couples wed and the #MeToo movement sweep across the globe, this is a timely and provocative contribution to the field of sexology and historical studies, in general. We invite you to dive head first into the extraordinary journey of ‘how sex got screwed up’.

New title: Bertrand Russell’s Life and Legacy

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of a new anthology on the life and work of Bertrand Russell, one of the most prominent intellectuals of the 20th century. Almost five decades after his death, there is still ample reason to pay attention to the life and legacy of Bertrand Russell. This is true not only because of his role as one of the founders of analytic philosophy, but also because of his important place in twentieth-century history as an educator, public intellectual, critic of organized religion, humanist, and peace activist.
