摘要

Homosexual behaviour is often portrayed as an 'evolutionary paradox', because it 'cannot obviously lead to immediate fertilization' (page 2). The same can be said for reading books, in particular this one. Whoever wants to be asexual for a long time to come should work his or her way through the 558 densely fonted sheets, which include 91 pages of almost 3000 references. Only when it came to the index does the author seem to have run out of steam, leaving us with a haphazard assemblage of entries. Otherwise, everything about homosexuality can be found somewhere in this book, whether it concerns rather physiological aspects, such as genetics (chapter 3), ontogenesis (chapter 4), endocrinology and neurobiology (chapter 5), and immunology (chapter 6), or the more functional aspects of sexual segregation (chapter 7) and life history (chapters 8,10).
机译:同性恋行为通常被描绘为“进化悖论”,因为它“显然不会导致立即受精”(第2页)。阅读书籍,尤其是阅读书籍也可以这样说。想要长时间无性恋的人应该通过558种字体密集的表格来完成自己的工作,该表格包括91页,近3000份参考文献。只有在涉及索引时,作者才似乎精疲力尽,使我们无所适从。否则,关于同性恋的一切都可以在本书的某个地方找到,无论它涉及的是生理方面,例如遗传学(第3章),本体论(第4章),内分泌学和神经生物学(第5章)以及免疫学(第6章),还是性隔离(第7章)和生活史(第8,10章)的更多功能方面。
