| Summary | "Love: A Treatise on the Science of Sex-Attraction" by Bernard Simon Talmey is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work offers an in-depth exploration of the nature of love and sexual attraction, aiming to bridge the gap in understanding between the emotional and pathological aspects of sexuality in both men and women. Talmey's intent is not only to analyze the mechanics of sex and love but also to challenge longstanding societal norms regarding the differences in sexual impulses between genders. The opening of the treatise sets the stage for Talmey’s exploration of love as a crucial force in human civilization. He argues that love and the sexual impulse are often misunderstood and subject to cultural taboos, especially when it comes to discussing them openly. Throughout the historical context, he discusses how ancient cultures revered sexuality, contrasting with modern perceptions shaped by prudery and obscenity. Talmey's foundational argument addresses the similarities and identities of the sexual impulses between men and women, positioning his work as an essential guide for both medical professionals and students seeking clarity on the complex interplay between emotion, biology, and societal norms regarding love and sex.
