Mary Roach (2008) Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex. W.W. Norton & Co.
Everyone will write a commentary of this book, which will include an example of modern sex research that you will explore. You will need to do additional research to find information for that section of your paper.
The following criteria will be used to evaluate your paper:
I will be looking for:
• an overview/introduction that gives me an idea of what the book is about and what the author's perspective or orientation to the subject matter is
• a significant controlling idea, assertion or theme supported with concrete, substantial, and relevant evidence grounded in the text-if space allows you may discuss more than one issue (see examples of topics in the box)
• conceptual clarity and depth of analysis
• evidence of creative, intellectually sophisticated, original, or critical thinking
• a section that discusses an example of research on sexuality that follows up one of the topics that Roach discusses in the book.
You should use at least two GOOD sources for the section on modern sexuality research, although you may use more. Be sure to cite them. You should also include a complete citation for the book at the end of your paper. You may use any format you choose, but
use it consistently.
Which cases discussed by Roach seemed most interesting to you? Why?
Do you think sexuality research is less quirky now than in the past?
How have social values influenced sexually research, both in the present and the past?
What is your evaluation of the writing style of the author? Would you recommend the book to a friend?
