Comment devient on homo ou hétéro?

Here is the first book to explain in detail the origin of our sexual preferences. No one is born homosexual or heterosexual, we become that way as a result of a long progression of very diverse, innate, but essentially acquired, influences. Based on modern developments in psychoanalysis, the latest discoveries in neurobiology and genetics and on historical, sociological, behavioural and ethnological research, in a clear and concise style, this book tells you how this process develops. The author takes us on a fascinating voyage, enriched with captivating personal testimonies and full of surprises, to the heart of the great mystery of male and female sexual attraction and attachment.
