What effect does a bed's design have on sex, and how do you choose the right bed for your love life? Which lube is best for any particular sexual encounter and why? How can science help you find the ideal partner, or simply improve your odds of hooking up for the night? The Physics of Sex has answers to these questions and many more. It's a no-nonsense guide to the science that will make you a smarter and better lover.

You have in your hands the most rigorous, complete and readable book ever written about the fascinating science of human sexuality. This book goes beyond the well-worn sexual education advice and the usual evolutionist psychology. After The Brain Snatcher, Pere Estupinyà comes back with the first popular science book on sex aimed at a wide audience. While there are some tips for the more adventurous, there is also a wealth of new information to be discovered. Distancing himself from the many books on advice or techniques, Estupinyà brings sex to another dimension by combining popular beliefs and science. Do you want proof that our decision-making in the “heat of the moment” is less rational than we think? Did you know that mind and vagina each go their own way? Are you interested in learning about the effects of yoga on sexual pleasure? Did you know about the attempts in the 60s to “cure” homosexuals with electric shock therapy, the chemical analysis of female ejaculation, or the fundamental relationship between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system? The author has spoken directly with asexual and intersexual individuals, fetishists, multi-orgasmic women, women who never have orgasms through penetration, and men who have no refractory period. He has also participated in sadomasochistic events; learned tantric techniques with a couple of coaches, spoken with porn performers at Barcelona’s Bagdad, and attended workshops in which a woman teaches how to have orgasms with your mind and breathing. The result is an incredible miscellany of information that appeals to both the scientific community and the curious.

What kind of sense can we make out of living in a world that has both sex and quantum physics? Because, in fact, there is no question that we live in a world that has both. Both the messiness of daily life with all its desires, emotions, thoughts and uncertainties, and also the elegant mathematical models of strange attractors, quantum foam, and multiple dimensions. Sex and Quantum Physics Volume 1: Tantic Yogi Tells All is a story about almost everything. Romp with a tantric yogi's whimsical cartoons throughthe body, mind, and sexual circuits of humans. Explore dark energy, evolution, pain, pleasure and why it feels so good to evolve with the universe. Tantric Yogi Tells All is an old/new paradigm, an old/new way of thinking about our selves and how we live in the world. Simply written, with 24 exercises and over 300 illustrations, Volume 1 is a practical course on beginners tantra yoga exercises, exercises that not only immediately reduce stress and pain, but improve muscle tone while evolving our energy and our awareness. Drawing together ancient traditions, yoga body awareness, and the latest discoveries of science, Sex and Quantum Physics Volume 1 offers tools for a richer evolution of everything in your life (yes, even sex!).

What led scientists to have acrobats copulate inside an MRI machine? Why do wordless patterns of sound send shivers down our spines and tickle ancient parts of our brains? How did a chemist's quest to create a drug to ease the pain of childbirth result in the creation of LSD? And did it change our understanding of the brain forever? From tortoiseshell condoms to superstar athletes on hallucinogens, science writer Zoe Cormier dissects these and other burning questions, amplifying them with insights from some of the world's bravest, cleverest, and downright weirdest scientists. Sex, Drugs, and Rock 'n' Roll explores science at the edge, where scientists ask big, strange questions -- and sometimes experiment on themselves to find answers. It shines a light into the lesser-known corners of scientific research to gain insight into the nature of consciousness, happiness, and humanity. Not to mention our parties. Here are stories of unconventional scientists, innovative inquiries, hedonistic impulses -- and how the renegades of science have illuminated the secrets of our baser impulses.

Any X and Y articulate a circle, thus sex (complementarity) is the basis for physics.

A reexamination of the origins of modern science; discovers a forgotten heritage of women scientists and probes the cultural and historical forces that continue to shape the course of scientific scholarship and knowledge.

Volume two begins with Goethe's theories of affinities, i.e. the chemical reaction view of human life in 1809. This is followed by the history of how the thermodynamic (1876) and quantum (1905) revolutions modernized chemistry such that affinity (the 'force' of reaction) is now viewed as a function of thermodynamic 'free energy' (reaction spontaneity) and quantum 'valency' (bond stabilities). The composition, energetic state, dynamics, and evolution of the human chemical bond A?B is the centerpiece of this process. The human bond is what gives (yields) and takes (absorbs) energy in life. The coupling of this bond energy, driven by periodic inputs of solar photons, thus triggering activation energies and entropies, connected to the dynamical work of life, is what quantifies the human reaction process. This is followed by topics including mental crystallization, template theory, LGBT chemistry, chemical potential, Le Chatelier's principle, Muller dispersion forces, and human thermodynamics.
