About This Item
W.B. Saunders Co., Philadelphia, 1948, fifth printing, February 1948...., 1948. Hardcover. Very Good/No Jacket. Quarto, hardcover, near fine in red boards, 804pp. no dust jacket. The first edition of this landmark study of sexual habits, and one of the most influential books of the 20th century. This landmark study has had lasting influence. Preceded by numerous animal studies, moralistic marriage guides, several narrowly focused human research studies, and less than comprehensive study by Sigmund Freud and Havelock Ellis, `The Kinsey Report' was the first comprehensive study of human sexuality ever published, and made sex a subject that could be talked about openly. Using 5, 300 male subjects and nearly 8, 000 female subjects, Kinsey compiled over 1, 600 pages of data. Sets of the first editions together have become uncommon.
