Our society is obsessed with sex - and yet we don't understand it at all. Acclaimed philosopher J. Budziszewski remedies the problem in this wise, gracefully written book about the nature, meaning, and mysteries of sexuality.
On the Meaning of Sex corrects the most prevalent errors about sex - particularly those of the sexual revolution, which by mistaking pleasure for a good in itself has caused untold pain and suffering.

About the Author
J. Budziszewski is a professor of government and philosophy at the University of Texas. He is the author of nineteen books including What We Can’t Not Know: A Guide, On the Meaning of Sex, How and How Not to Be Happy, How to Stay Christian in College, and a series of line-by-line commentaries on pivotal sections of Thomas Aquinas’s Summa Theologiae, including the Treatise on Law.
Reviews
\u201cBudziszewskiÆs logic is flawless, and he understands that we cannot begin to speak about good and evil, and particularly about sexual good and evil, without acknowledging manÆs transcendent end. Pleasure is not to be the law of our being, but rather we can only find our happiness in obedience to that law. On the Meaning of Sex is an eminently readable and powerful testament to that unchanging truth.\u201d —Anthony Esolen, author of Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child
