Biographical note
Jeffrey Weeks is professor of sociology in the department of legal, political, and social sciences at South Bank University in London. He is the author of many books, most recently Against Nature: Essays on History, Sexuality and Identity.
Working from what he calls a radical humanist perspective, Weeks looks at sexual mores in these times of confusion—from AIDS and the challenges of love and death, to the politics of diversity, to controversial topics such as sadomasochism, rape, and abortion rights.
