This manual provides comprehensive information for the Sex on Earth: A Celebration of Animal Reproduction, authored by Jules Howard and published by Bloomsbury Sigma. This work delves into the fascinating diversity of animal reproduction, exploring topics such as sperm wars, hermaphrodites, virgin births, and the complexities of monogamy and love. Written in an engaging style, the book offers a voyage of discovery into the intricacies of how and why sex occurs across the animal kingdom, from the earliest forms of complex life to the present day.
The purpose of this manual is to serve as a detailed resource for understanding the biological processes and evolutionary drivers behind animal reproduction. It covers a wide array of reproductive strategies and behaviors, aiming to educate and inform readers about the vibrant and often surprising world of sex in nature. This guide is intended for anyone interested in the natural world and the fundamental role of reproduction in shaping life on Earth.
1,000 million years ago, a sexual revolution occurred on Earth. Sex happened for the first time; from this moment the world became ever more colourful and bizarre, ringing with elaborate songs and dances, epic battles, and rallying cries as the desires of males and females collided, generation after generation. All of your ancestors took part and succeeded � an unbroken chain of sex right back to the dawn of complex life on Earth. Well done you. Well done everything.
The world in which we live rings, bleeds, and howls with sex. It's everywhere. Right now warring hordes are locking horns, preening feathers, rampaging lustfully across the savanna, questioning the fidelity of the ones they love. Birds are singing, flowers bloom. A million females choose; a billion penises ejaculate (or snap off); a trillion sperm battle, block and tackle.
Sex made planet Earth sexy.
Written in a brilliantly engaging style by biologist Jules Howard, this fascinating and highly readable work covers the how and why of sex on Earth, in all its diversity. From sperm wars to cuckoldry, hermaphrodites and virgin births, spent males, racy harems, clitoral births, hips, breasts and birdsong, penis-percussion, and those riskiest and most elusive of all traits, monogamy and true love, all this and more is discussed in Sex on Earth, as Jules takes us on a voyage of discovery of the ins and outs of animal reproduction.
