Fetus ejection reflex, milk ejection reflex, sperm ejection reflex, orgasmogenic cocktail . . . These are examples of terms used by Michel Odent in his study of the ecstatic/orgasmic states associated with different episodes of human sexual life. This book about male and female orgasms is an opportunity to convince anyone that humanity is at a turning point.
Due to the improved technique of medically assisted conceptions and cesareans, the advances in anesthesiology and pharmacology, and the development of the food industry, women can now conceive a baby, give birth and feed their infant without relying on the release of cocktails of love hormones. Human intelligence and ingenuity have made love hormones redundant. Let us think long-term and let us raise questions in terms of civilization. The future of humanity is at stake.
"Odent's [book] is a stylish polemic that mixes endocrinology, comparative anthropology, philology, anecdotes from the author's own medical practice." Steven Poole, The Guardian
