Title: Sex, Time, and Power Author: Leonard Shlain Narrator: Bob Souer Format: mp3 Length: 14 hrs and 30 mins Release date: 07-28-20 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 56 ratings Genres: Anthropology Publisher's Summary: Sex, Time, and Power offers a tantalizing answer to an age-old question: Why did big-brained Homo sapiens suddenly emerge some 150,000 years ago? The key, according to Shlain, is female sexuality. Drawing on an awesome breadth of research, he shows how, long ago, the narrowness of the newly bipedal human female's pelvis and the increasing size of infants' heads precipitated a crisis for the species. Natural selection allowed for reconfiguration of hormonal cycles, entraining women with the periodicity of the moon - and imbuing women with the concept of time.
