- the reproductive imperative
- how to have sex in an epidemic
- the choreography of sex
- the darker side of sex
- from sexual health to sexual rights

It is an essential reference for academics and researchers in the fields of sexuality studies, sexual health and human rights, and offers key reading for more advanced students.
