Features: "Sex is an unextinguishable flame that nothing can put out. We should, like Moses, cast off our shoes and walk barefoot to explore this incredible fire." The brave words were spoken by H.H. Ellis, a renowned British authority on sexology. In the history of modern sexology, Ellis is as celebrated as Freud in the field of sex psychology. He was the first to point out that gender determination is related to chromosomes in cells. His textbook-like Psychology of Sex is considered a landmark work in the field of sexology. In the book, Ellis comprehensively examines human sexuality, lifts the veil of mystery surrounding human sexual phenomena, and highlights the importance of natural and healthy development in sex for human progress. British philosopher Bertrand Russell, in reviewing the book, said: "There are countless books on the subject of sex, but few are truly trustworthy. This work is truly outstanding and deserves admiration. We can confidently recommend it to everyone."
Ellis was born in Croydon, near London, in 1859. At the age of seven, he accompanied his father, a captain of a transatlantic ship, to South America. At sixteen, he went to Australia with his father and taught at an elementary school. In 1880, he returned to England and studied physiology at St. Thomas's College. In 1890, he obtained a medical degree and began practicing medicine, but soon abandoned the profession to dedicate himself to sexology writing and research. After the publication of Man and Woman as part of the Modern Science Series in 1894, he began writing the famous Studies in the Psychology of Sex. In 1933, Psychology of Sex was published. In 1904, Genius and Heredity was published, and the statistical data in this book on the relationship between parents' occupations, ages, and genius children is still widely cited today.
Ellis's research was extensive, covering literature, sexology, and genetics. His writing style was unique and elegant, and he dared to address taboo and socially sensitive issues, earning him popularity among readers worldwide. In 1939, Ellis passed away at the age of 80, having dedicated his life to the reform and freedom of sex.
To this day, while most educated people in China are familiar with Freud and even his theories, few know or have heard much about Ellis. Such a scholar with significant contributions to sex psychology has been largely overlooked in China, which seems unfair. For this reason, we have selectively extracted the essence of Ellis's theories on sexology and compiled them into this book. On one hand, this aims to let more people understand his theories, and on the other, to help people gain a deeper understanding of sex, human nature, and society, thereby improving their quality of life.
"From a broad perspective, we can say that the significance of sex education in modern civilized society is greater than in any other era." "As a physiological, psychological, and social phenomenon, sex accompanies everyone and profoundly affects their health, happiness, and personality." (Quoted by Ellis)
Perhaps, The Happiness Code is the golden key that opens the door to your perfect and happy life.
