This book was released on 1987-02-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 1 million teenage girls in the United States become pregnant each year; nearly half give birth. Why do these young people, who are hardly more than children themselves, become parents? This volume reviews in detail the trends in and consequences of teenage sexual behavior and offers thoughtful insights on the issues of sexual initiation, contraception, pregnancy, abortion, adoption, and the well-being of adolescent families. It provides a systematic assessment of the impact of various programmatic approaches, both preventive and ameliorative, in light of the growing scientific understanding of the topic.

This book was released on 2001-07-02 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's obvious why only men develop prostate cancer and why only women get ovarian cancer. But it is not obvious why women are more likely to recover language ability after a stroke than men or why women are more apt to develop autoimmune diseases such as lupus. Sex differences in health throughout the lifespan have been documented. Exploring the Biological Contributions to Human Health begins to snap the pieces of the puzzle into place so that this knowledge can be used to improve health for both sexes. From behavior and cognition to metabolism and response to chemicals and infectious organisms, this book explores the health impact of sex (being male or female, according to reproductive organs and chromosomes) and gender (one's sense of self as male or female in society). Exploring the Biological Contributions to Human Health discusses basic biochemical differences in the cells of males and females and health variability between the sexes from conception throughout life. The book identifies key research needs and opportunities and addresses barriers to research. Exploring the Biological Contributions to Human Health will be important to health policy makers, basic, applied, and clinical researchers, educators, providers, and journalists-while being very accessible to interested lay readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An excerpt from the INTRODUCTION: EARLY in the year 1887 my attention was first called to the fact that the great problem of the Causation of Sex in Mankind was still unsolved. The inquiries which I then began to make soon showed me how much in the dark the medical profession is on the subject. The whole question of the Causation of Sex in Mankind had been hedged around, encumbered and obscured with observations ad nauseam on the eggs of the invertebrata; on worms and tadpoles; on sponges, and plants; on bees, and water-fleas; and lastly, on hens' eggs, to which nothing more dissimilar could be found than the human egg or ovum. If ever it be true that "the proper study of mankind is man," it is in this study of the causation of sex, and therefore I have made it chiefly a clinical study. Among the large number of theories which had been advanced, the great majority were quite untenable, and were propounded without any clinical evidence or facts to support them; several others I found had been suggested which were diametrically contradictory to a theory which some former writer had advocated. A few of these I mention in the text. As a general practitioner of medicine, the daily round of work, the ever-present necessity of earning one's living, sadly interfered with, and was hardly conducive to, close study of and inquiry into such an engrossing subject, and so progress was slow; but we must remember, as Dr. Samuel Johnson said, " it is dangerous to quiet our uneasiness by the delusive opiate of hasty persuasion"; for the answers to most great questions have only been arrived at after much patience combined with persistence and sustained work. It was not, therefore, till some thirteen years after first beginning the study of the Causation of Sex that I ventured, in December 1900, to bring the subject before the Obstetrical Society of London: it is remarkable, but it was the first time that the subject of the Causation of Sex in Mankind had ever been discussed by the Society! Innovations, however, rankle with many, and, as was to be expected, but little knowledge of the subject was shown, and much of the criticism of the paper was irrelevant and inaccurate. The reception of the paper did not discourage me, and the following eulogistic notice of it from the pen of the then President of the Obstetrical Society, Mr. Alban Doran, F.R.C.S., appeared in vol. xliii. 1901, pp. 49 and 50, of the Society's Transactions: "A very remarkable monograph on ' The Essential Factor in the Causation of Sex: a New Theory of Sex,' was read in December by Mr. E. Rumley Dawson. This communication was prepared after long study of cases of removal of one ovary, and of families where one sex predominated or prevailed entirely. . . . The boldest theory in this singular monograph was the assertion that the sex of the child depends upon which ovary supplied the ovum fertilised. This paper was strongly criticised in a very active discussion by several obstetrical and gynaecological authorities; but the author, who showed great dialectical ability both in his written monograph and in his reply to his critics at the meeting, stoutly maintained the scientific value of his views. This memorable discussion on a sex problem-a subject always of interest, though on the borderland of the insoluble - was further remarkable as being the last piece of work done by the Obstetrical Society in the nineteenth century."

Download or read book The Causes of Rape written by Martin L. Lalumiere and published by Amer Psychological Assn. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Examines why some men are prone to rape, offers probable causes for this inclination, and provides a comprehensive review of scientific studies of coercive sex. The authors look at evidence from studies in developmental criminology, evolutionary psychology, psychopathology, and psychophysiology and examine the situational and social factors that influence the likelihood of rape. Theories about rape have an unfortunate history of being unconstrained by empirical knowledge, sometimes with the harmful consequence that solutions to the problem of rape are ineffectual. The authors address this situation with a fact-based exploration of this phenomenon, beginning with a review of coercive sex among animal species and an account of rape throughout history and across culture, moving through a discussion of current research on rape, and culminating with a synthesis of research findings that points toward a new explanation of why some men rape. The authors also discuss the practical implications of their research on the assessment and treatment of men who rape. This empirically exhaustive book will be the new standard text on the phenomenon of rape and will help psychologists, social workers, and legal professionals to develop a better understanding of sexual aggression"--Publicity materials.

Download or read book Sexual Violence Against Men in Global Politics written by Marysia Zalewski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexual violence against men is an under-theorised and under-noticed topic, though it is becoming increasingly apparent that this form of violence is widespread. Yet despite emerging evidence documenting its incidence, especially in conflict and post-conflict zones, efforts to understand its causes and develop strategies to reduce it are hampered by a dearth of theoretical engagement. One of the reasons that might explain its empirical invisibility and theoretical vacuity is its complicated relationship with sexual violence against women. The latter is evident empirically, theoretically, and politically, but the relationship between these violences conjures a range of complex and controversial questions about the ways they might be different, and why and how these differences matter. It is the case that sexual violence (when noticed at all) has historically been understood to happen largely, if not only, to women, allegedly because of their gender and their ensuing place in gender orders. This begs important questions regarding the impact of increasing knowledge about sexual violence against men, including the impact on resources, on understandings about, and experiences of masculinity, and whether the idea and practice of gender hierarchy is outdated. This book engages this diverse set of questions and offers fresh analysis on the incidences of sexual violence against men using both new and existing data. Additionally, the authors pay close attention to some of the controversial debates in the context of sexual violence against men, revisiting and asking new questions about the vexed issue of masculinities and related theories of gender hierarchy. The book will be of great interest to students and scholars of sex, gender, masculinities, corporeality, violence, and global politics, as well as to practitioners and activists.
