Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sex-Complex: A Study of the Relationships of the Internal Secretions to the Female Characteristics and Functions in Health and Disease This small monograph is based on the subject matter of several previous communications - the Arris and Gale Lectures, delivered before the Royal College of Surgeons, England, in 1913; the paper with which a discussion was opened at the Royal Society of Medicine in the same year, and other contributions bearing on this subject, including, by the kind permission of the Editors and Messrs. Macmillan & Co., a small portion of the articles on 'The Disorders of Function' written for the New System of Gyn cology. In the Arris and Gale Lectures probably the first definite attempt was made to demonstrate that the reproductive functions are directed and controlled by all the organs of internal secretion acting in conjunction, rather than by the gonads alone, as formerly thought. Earlier investigators had adduced evidence, it is true, of a connexion between the genital organs and some of the distant hormonopoietic glands; but the observations made do not appear to have led to the conclusion that the association is not incidental, but, rather, that it indicates the existence of a definite genital system, in which probably all the internal secretions play a part. This correlation of the internal secretions in regard to the sex-functions - the 'sex complex', as we may call it - appears already to be accepted by all physiologists and clinicians, except, perhaps, those few who still deny the interrelationship of the internal secretions.

  • Author : Anne Fausto-Sterling
  • Publisher : Basic Books
  • Release : 2020-06-30
  • ISBN : 1541672909
  • Pages : 621 pages

Download or read book Sexing the Body written by Anne Fausto-Sterling and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now updated with groundbreaking research, this award-winning classic examines the construction of sexual identity in biology, society, and history. Why do some people prefer heterosexual love while others fancy the same sex? Is sexual identity biologically determined or a product of convention? In this brilliant and provocative book, the acclaimed author of Myths of Gender argues that even the most fundamental knowledge about sex is shaped by the culture in which scientific knowledge is produced. Drawing on astonishing real-life cases and a probing analysis of centuries of scientific research, Fausto-Sterling demonstrates how scientists have historically politicized the body. In lively and impassioned prose, she breaks down three key dualisms -- sex/gender, nature/nurture, and real/constructed -- and asserts that individuals born as mixtures of male and female exist as one of five natural human variants and, as such, should not be forced to compromise their differences to fit a flawed societal definition of normality.

Book Feminism and the Body

Download or read book Feminism and the Body written by Londa L. Schiebinger and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of classic essays in feminist body studies investigates the history of the image of the female body; from the medical 'discovery' of the clitoris, to the 'body politic' of Queen Elizabeth I, to women deprecated as 'Hottentot Venuses' in the nineteenth century. The text look at the way in which coverings bear cultural meaning: clothing reform during the French Revolution, Islamic veiling, and the invention of the top hat; as well as the embodiment of cherished cultural values in social icons such as the Statue of Liberty or the Barbie doll. By considering culture as it defines not only women but also men, this volume offers both the student and the general reader an insight into the interdisciplinary and cross-cultural study involved in feminist body studies.
