Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Provocative, earnest and uncompromising.The questions still matter today.James Foster Scott's The Sexual Instinct surveys late-Victorian anxieties about sex, reproduction and public duty. Part essay, part social critique, it maps the arguments that fed debates over victorian sex education, the social purity movement and wider campaigns of moral reform literature. Scott engages with contemporary notions of heredity and morality, and with nineteenth century science as it sought to define what constituted healthy bodies and a healthy society. Readers drawn to sexual ethics history and students of human sexuality will recognise material that informs later controversies about public health, family policy and eugenics and society; casual readers will find its directness both readable and arresting, while scholars will value its evidence of how ideas were argued and circulated. The prose shifts between succinct case and fervent admonition, offering a form that is part polemic, part clinical observation, and strangely alive to the social texture of victorian era society.As historical non-fiction, The Sexual Instinct occupies a revealing place in the archive of classic sociology text and moral discourse, tracing the intersections of science, sex and state in a formative moment. It is both a window for general readers onto the certainties and fears that shaped modern sexual policy, and a tool for archivists, libraries and academic research collections assembling primary sources on sexual politics, public health and nineteenth-century intellectual life. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Collectors of classic literature and students of the history of ideas will regard it as an essential companion; it rewards close reading and sparks the kind of conversation that reaches beyond scholarship into wider cultural reflection.…
