In evolutionary terms, sex is more important than life
itself--without progeny, we are evolutionary losers. Sex fuels
evolutionary change, by adding variation to the gene pool and
eliminating unsatisfactory traits. We look at the endless variety of
sexual expression and the powerful hold sex exerts over almost all
living things. And we explore how the need to pass on our genes has
shaped our own bodies, minds, and lives. Some scientists believe that
art, literature, music--in fact all of human culture--may be the
ultimate result of our sexual drives.
