"Education of the Senses is the first volume in Peter Gay's panoramic study of the European and American middle classes from the 1820s to the outbreak of World War I. Drawing on psychoanalytic insights and a rich array of primary sources, Gay reexamines the sexual behavior and attitudes of the Victorians, overturning a myriad of stereotypes, especially about women. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
