Sex, The Illustrated History: Volume Three, continues a courageous exploration of sexual customs and conflictsinto the modern world. This work explores the fight for sexual freedom in a world of often repressed sexuality.The conflict with the Church and its control of sexuality and law, has stood as a barrier against freedom of humansexuality.The focus of this work is primarily the European and American theater, as they strive to rise above the ancientprecepts that have girdled sexuality. The fight was a long and hard fought one; prejudice and prudery, and claimsof morality and law, standing rigidly against a new rationalism beginning in the reformation.The book explores in depth; historical and contemporary worldwide slavery, forced marriage, child brides, abusesof the Catholic Church and sexual trafficking. Also explored are the history of homosexual movements, bisexuality,and the larger LGBT+ movements.
