Features: Sexuality, which is related to human reproduction, human health, and the source of joy in life, inevitably affects the stability of families and societies, as well as the progress of spiritual civilization and social development. The observation and study of "sexuality" have a long history, dating back to prehistoric times. However, sexology as a science only entered the stage of human civilization about a hundred years ago, while the large-scale rise of modern science in China occurred in the 1980s. Despite this, due to insufficient and inadequate health education, many people in China still lack sexual knowledge and correct sexual concepts. Some individuals require guidance in sexual morality, while a few others need to rebuild their sexual morality. This book provides a systematic, comprehensive, and correct understanding of sexual science for a broad readership, helping those who lack sexual knowledge or hold incorrect sexual concepts to move beyond misconceptions. It guides people to inherit and promote the fine traditional Chinese sexual culture while pioneering contemporary sexual civilization to enhance people's physical and mental health and promote the development of social civilization. The primary readership of this book is adult readers, but it can also be used by medical workers and educators. The book contains 1,065 entries, 1.64 million words, over 200 illustrations, and 195 color illustrations. The content covers the history of sexual science, sexual medicine, sexual biology, gynecological diseases and sexuality, male diseases and sexuality, sexually transmitted diseases and sexual dermatology, sexual pharmacology, fertility regulation and fertility health, sexual psychology, sexual philosophy, sexual sociology, sexual ethics, sexual customs, sexual law, sexual literature, sexual aesthetics, sexual life, and sexual health education. This book provides readers with systematic, comprehensive, and correct knowledge of sexual science, aiming to pioneer contemporary sexual civilization to enhance people's physical and mental health and promote the development of social civilization.
