Resumen del Editor

This classic work on the rules of sex - updated for a new generation - is still as provocative as the day it was published, providing simple explanations for any and all questions about what happens in the bedroom.

Sex isn't as complicated as we make it. In Sperm Wars, evolutionary biologist Robin Baker argues that every question about human sexuality can be explained by one simple thing: sperm warfare. In the interest of promoting competition between sperm to fertilize the same egg, evolution has built men to conquer and monopolize women while women are built to seek the best genetic input on offer from potential sexual partners.

Baker reveals, through a series of provocative fictional scene, the far-reaching implications of sperm competition. Ten percent of children are not fathered by their "fathers"; more than 99 percent of a man's sperm exists simply to fight off all other men's sperm; and a woman is far more likely to conceive through a casual fling than through sex with her regular partner.

From infidelity, to homosexuality, to the female orgasm, Sperm Wars turns on every light in the bedroom. Now with new material reflecting the latest research on sperm warfare, this milestone of popular science will still surprise, entertain, and even shock.

"A constant stream of surprising facts makes this an entertaining page-turner.... A must for anyone who wants to understand what is really going on during sex." (The Irish Times)

"The best fiction I've read all year is the imaginary sex scenes in Robin Baker's Sperm Wars, the most entertaining science book of the year." (The Sunday Times, UK)

Very Useful

A lot of logical explanations to mystery of love and sex that are noticably true but would not have otherwise been realized had we not read the book

Thought provoking and entertaining

I’ll never examine human sexual behavior in the same way again. Whether I agree or disagree with the conclusions of this book, it certainly has challenged my thinking. Excellent narration.

A thought provoking listen

The ideas presented are both intriguing and well-delivered. The material fits well into other ideas from books discussing male/female relationships from different angles.
