Dr Emily Morse – sex educator and expert in human sexuality – believes that sex is integral to our self-care. In this ground-breaking book, she argues powerfully that we need to start prioritizing pleasure in our lives. So often, the path to pleasure is blocked by responsibilities, anxiety, pressures and obstacles but the number one obstruction when it comes to sex is shame.

The Age of Choice tells the long history of the invention of choice as the defining feature of modern freedom. Taking listeners from the seventeenth century to today, Sophia Rosenfeld describes how the early modern world witnessed the simultaneous rise of shopping as an activity and religious freedom as a matter of being able to pick one's convictions. Similarly, she traces the history of choice in romantic life, politics, and the ideals of human rights. Throughout, she pays particular attention to the lives of women, who have frequently been the drivers of this change.
