  Short Description for Sperm WarsThis controversial new view of human sexuality has stimulated heated debate around the world by suggesting that much of our sexual behavior is driven by imperatives hard-wired into us through an evolutionary competition the author calls "the sperm war". Robin Baker contends that sex, for humans, is a battleground upon which an unconscious evolutionary conflict takes place.

Full description for Sperm Wars

• Published to acclaim and controversy a decade ago, Sperm Wars is a revolutionary thesis about sex that turned centuries-old biological assumptions on their head. Evolution has programmed men to conquer and monopolize women while women, without ever knowing they are doing it, seek the best genetic input on offer from potential sexual partners. In this book, best-selling author Robin Baker reveals these new facts of life: ten percent of children are not fathered by their "fathers;" less than one percent of a man's sperm is capable of fertilizing anything (the rest is there to fight off all other men's sperm); "smart" vaginal mucus encourages some sperm but blocks others; and a woman is far more likely to conceive through a casual fling than through sex with her regular partner. It's no wonder that Sperm Wars is a classic of popular science writing that will surprise, entertain, and even shock.
