Cristina Nehring of the NY Times says, “What did the more than 10,000 orgasms they observed in a laboratory reveal? Admirers, like Maier, point to the fact that they debunked Freud by revealing that there was no qualitative difference between a vaginal and clitoral orgasm, and that they made significant discoveries about vaginal lubrication and contraction during arousal.”
Reviewer John Klasios at mentalhelp.net says, “Moalem leaves no anatomical crevices or biological substrates related to sex unexplored in the book. On the female side, topics range from the G-spot to female ejaculation to a brief consideration of the evolutionary function of the female orgasm; and on the male side, from prostatic fluid to circumcision to the zinc-rich composition of sperm.”
