About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of Studies in the Psychology of Sex, Volume 4 by Havelock Ellis. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers. The fourth of six volumes, this volume delves into how sensory stimuli: specifically through touch, smell, hearing, and vision, affect sexual attraction and choice in humans. Ellis aims to explore the psychological dimensions of sexual selection, underlining how these sensory interactions contribute to the complex phenomena of love and attraction. Written as an anthropological and psychological study from the point of view of Havelock, the famous British sexologist of the late 19th century, who was also a physician and social reformer. - Summary by Tim Ferreira and Jessie Percival
