Dr Tatiana's Sex Advice to All Creation

The Definitive Guide to the Evolutionary Biology of Sex

Olivia Judson

Ever wondered why some women bite your head off, or why one guy gets all the girls? Ever pondered why some men bring you balloons while others leave you their genitals? Dr Tatiana's Sex Advice to All Creation is the book for you. Quirky, entertaining and brilliant, Dr Tatiana, the racy new agony aunt, explains all this and much more. She discloses the best time to have a sex change, how to have a virgin birth, when to seduce your sisters or eat your lover. In giving her solutions, she explains the evolutionary biology of sex, from Darwin’s theory of sexual selection to why sexual reproduction exists at all. This book is a fusion of science and natural history, a blend of wit and rigour that will fascinate and inform.
