Best Selling Books by Shere Hite

A reproduction of the classic text, unavailable now for more than a decade, with a new introduction by the author. The Hite Report, first published in 1976, was a sexual revolution in six hundred pages. To answer sensitive questions dealing with the most intimate details of women''s sexuality, Hite''s innovation was simple: she asked women, a lot of them, everything--and published the results. One hundred thousand women, ages fourteen to seventy-eight, were asked what they do and don''t like about sex; how orgasm really feels, with and without intercourse; how it feels not to have an orgasm during sex; the importance of clitoral stimulation and masturbation; and to name the greatest pleasures and frustrations of their sexual lives, among many other questions. The Hite Report declares that orgasm is easy and strong for women, given the right stimulation; that most women have orgasm most easily during masturbation or clitoral stimulation by hand; that sex as we define it is a cultural institution, not a biological one; and that attitudes must change to include the stimulation women desire.

After 15 years researching and interviewing business men and women around the globe, Shere Hite, world renowned gender specialist, now exposes the areas where misunderstandings arise and offers solutions for overcoming gender barriers.

In this major study, groundbreaking researcher Shere Hite challenges established views on the family, arguing that it is not collapsing--as advocates of traditional "family values" would have us believe--but instead shifting from a rigid, patriarchial formula to increasingly egalitarian, custom-tailored variations. "Revealing and moving reflections on family life".--Publishers Weekly.

Recently published to much acclaim in England, these reflective essays by Shere Hite reveal and explore the methodological and philosophical import of the famous Hite Reports on male and female sexuality and love and include extensive excerpts from the reports themselves. To read this outstanding distillation of Hite''s writings is to see the continuing impact of her prodigious work over two decades, to hear her views on the issues facing women as agents of social change, and to be taken to the cutting edge of current debates on sexual politics.

Shere Hite''s first two bestselling reports exploded the fictions of human sexuality. Now Women and Love shatters our outdated notions about relationships, love, and being a woman today. An emotionally gripping chorus of women voicing their innermost feelings about probing questions.

In this latest Hite Report, Dr Hite examines friendship and work relationships between women. She explores various definitions of such friendships (what are the limits, does it include sex?) and sets these in their historical, societal and family contexts. And with high profile media stars very publicly exploring the nature of female friendship and women everywhere questioning its nature, Dr Hite''s extensively researched findings couldn''t be more timely.

The Shere Hite Reader presents wide-ranging analysis on the individual and society from a renowned thinker on psychosexual development. The book includes new science in addition to previously published material, reflecting Hite''s three decades of work probing the roots of human identity through questionnaires and theory. For the first time Hite formalizes her thinking on male adolescence, that boys feel tortured by the new social role they are forced to assume at puberty requiring a show of superiority toward females. In new detail Hite advances her understanding that sex is political, linking the expectation on women to achieve orgasm through coitus with broader patterns of oppression. Hite discusses new research on female adolescence, challenging the "virgin" hymen concept, and documenting that sexual awakening often precedes puberty. Hite also argues that pornography misrepresents male sexuality (not to mention female sexuality), depicting it as singular and silly instead of "full of intriguing, nuanced behavior involving the entire body, not just the penis." The authoritative collection of her work, The Shere Hite Reader challenges the reader to a new way of seeing.
