Highlighting the evolutionary functions of various physiological traits, Morris's study explores the various forms of enhancement and constraint that human societies have developed in the quest for the perfect female form. This is very much vintage Desmond Morris, delivered in his trademark voice: direct, clear, focused, and communicating what is often complex detail in simple language. In THE NAKED WOMAN, Desmond builds on his unrivalled experience as an observer of the human animal while tackling one of his most fascinating and challenging subjects to date. Review: Mind Boggling - The language is lucid and ideas clear. Surprises the reader that these very things one has been experiencing all through life but could not visualize them so lucidly. To some extent reduces the joy and pleasure of experiencing the other sex first hand! The author brings out valid reasons from physiological to psychological - for the women. A great work indeed, hat off to the scientific observational skills of the author. Review: Still useful in 2020 - This book written by a zoologist focuses on how women attempt to increase the contrast with males to make themselves more feminine. This book was published 16 years ago and would not have sold well today because the trend today is to stress a woman’s work skills, and deemphasize her physical attractiveness. The mantra is there are no differences between men and women aside from minor plumbing differences. At my college, the goal was to get more women in the trades such as welding and more men in childcare programs. We were awarded millions of dollars of grants to achieve this goal and were not very successful. One interesting part of the book was chapter 19 (p.192-202) on pubic hair and its functions. They include a visual signal of readiness to reproduce, as a scent-trap to store and release sexual pheromones, to act as a buffer between the skin surfaces of adult males and females, to name four and there are more in this detailed chapter. He also covers the why of its shaving. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #945,014 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #275 in Physical Anthropology (Books) #1,184 in Anatomy (Books) #1,460 in General Anthropology | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 181 Reviews | ## Images ![The Naked Woman: A Study of the Female Body - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6167OjGKqyL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Mind Boggling *by V***G on December 27, 2013* The language is lucid and ideas clear.
