Human sexual activity is not just a reflection of biological instinct, it contains rich psychological activities and is restricted by society. This is the fundamental difference between human sexual activities and animals. Sexual psychology refers to various psychological reactions in human sexual activities. It uses the psychological theories and methods to study human sexual psychology development, gender role socialization process, and sexual health. It is the science that studies people’s psychological activities and their laws during sexual behavior, and is one of the branches of psychological science.

As an independent discipline, sexual psychology is generally based on the Psychopathia Sexualis by Richard von Krafft-Ebing, published in 1886. Havelock Ellis, a medical scientist from London, systematically collected cases of sexual behavior, and published his seven-volume works Studies in the Psychology of Sex one after another from 1896 to 1928, which is a very important reference book for doctors, psychologists and other academic experts.

Havelock Ellis’ Psychology of Sex (published by William Heinemann in 1933) is an adaptation of his Studies in the Psychology of Sex, and can be regarded as its popular version. It is not only a landmark work in sexual psychology research, but also an easy-to-understand yet systematic and comprehensive handbook on sexual psychology for non-professional researchers. The book is divided into eight chapters, covering various aspects of sexual psychology, including sexual physiology, sexual impulses, sexual deviation, homosexuality, marriage and sex life, love, etc. The author originally defined its target audience as ordinary clinicians and medical students, but its actual audience later extended far beyond the medical community.

Although Psychology of Sex is a scientific book about sexual psychology, it has a strong humanistic flavor. Moreover, its logic is clear, its writing is beautiful, and it takes both scientific and artistic aspects into account. Therefore, it can also be used as a textbook for ordinary readers. The book conducts a detailed analysis and elaboration of human sexual psychology and sexual habits in an empirical manner, and summarizes various states of sexual behaviors caused by sexual psychology from different human behavioral manifestations.
