生物的性世界-认识生命科学必读的性博物志 特点:

本书是“第五届吴大猷科学普及著作奖创作类金签奖”得奖作品。生命科学轻松入门,讲述有趣的动物、植物和细菌的性知识!
刚刚步入性成熟阶段的生物,包括人类的青少年男女,有时候会苦于性的欲火。这是生物界的自然现象:只要是有活跃性腺的动物,就会有情欲,不管是鸟、是鱼,还是人。于是,我们不免要问,要繁衍,就一定要有性吗?其实不然,有些生物,如线虫可以自体受精;还有科莫多巨蜥和双髻鲨,国外曾有多个处女生殖的案例!

在本书中,作者不讨论人类性事,而是介绍各种有趣的生物“性”知识。比如,蜜蜂的命运随着性别差异有很大的不同,蜂后疯狂产卵,工蜂(也是雌蜂)终日操劳,雄蜂不是等着交配就是等死。而造成阶级差异的,就是它们的性基因。

更稀奇的例子还比比皆是,如蚜虫,居然在出生之前,就已经“珠胎暗结”,这到底是怎么回事呢?还有,居然有一种红鲑的性腺发育会受温度变动的影响,而发生雄鱼变性的情况。

看完有趣的例子,作者也介绍了主导人的性别的性染色体x和y、荷尔蒙与大脑的关系,以及:基因是否可以决定人的性取向?同性恋是否是基因所致?还有,一个因意外而失去性器官的小男孩,成为“教养会改变性别意识”理论的实验对象,从小被教养成女孩,以至他和双胞胎弟弟的人生从此大相径庭。
性,不性,当真大有关系!

This book is an award-winning work of the “golden autograph Award for creation of the fifth Wu Dayou science popularization Works Award”. Easy introduction to life science, tell about interesting sexual knowledge of animals, plants and bacteria!
Creatures just entering the stage of sexual maturity, including human teenagers, men and women, sometimes suffer from sexual desire. This is a natural phenomenon in the biological world: as long as it is an animal with active gonads, it will have lust, whether it is a bird, a fish or a person. So, we have to ask, do we have to have sex to reproduce? In fact, some organisms, such as nematodes, can self fertilize; There are also Komodo lizards and hammerhead sharks. There have been many cases of virgin reproduction abroad!
In this book, the author does not discuss human sex, but introduces all kinds of interesting biological “sex” knowledge. For example, the fate of bees varies greatly with gender differences. The queen bee lays eggs crazily, the worker bee (also the female bee) works all day, and the male bee is either waiting to mate or die. It is their sex genes that cause class differences.
Even more strange examples can be found everywhere. For example, aphids have “hidden knots” before they are born. What’s the matter? In addition, there is a kind of red salmon whose gonadal development will be affected by temperature changes, and the male fish will be denatured.
After reading interesting examples, the author also introduces the sex chromosomes X and y that dominate people’s gender, the relationship between hormones and the brain, and: can genes determine people’s sexual orientation? Is homosexuality caused by genes? In addition, a little boy who lost his sexual organs due to accident became the experimental object of the theory that “upbringing will change gender consciousness”. He was raised as a girl since childhood, so that his life and that of his twin brother have been very different since then.
Sex, no sex, really matter!

权威推荐
展现科学的重要条件,源始于对事物的好奇,作出仔细认真的观察,收集一手的资料,然后,分析作结论。……林正焜的书都符合这些条件。甚至,他还自己作插图,简单拙朴,但都是有效表达。
——台湾大学动物研究所及生命科学系教授  于宏灿
本书用很平易近人的白话口语方式,以很浅显的实例来解释深奥的生物繁殖现象与相关的理论。因而我要极力推荐这一本你想知道却不好意思问的性问题的上好科普书籍。
——台湾“中央研究院”临海研究站研究员  严宏洋   

★ the winning works of “the fifth Wu Dayou science popularization Works Award creative gold signature Award”! The perfect combination of science and interest.
★ easy introduction to life science, telling interesting sexual knowledge of animals, plants and bacteria!
★ Professor Lu Daru of Fudan University, Chinese American biologist Wu Xiaolin, Professor Yu Hongcan of Taiwan University, and researcher Yan Hongyang of Taiwan’s “Academia Sinica”   Highly recommended!
 
l   In addition to humans, other animals, plants and even bacteria also have “sex” problems.
Do you have to have sex to reproduce? not always!
Is there such a thing as virgin reproduction? That’s a lot.
Is sexual reproduction better than asexual reproduction? Is homosexuality caused by genes? Is gender awareness innate or nurtured?
Let this book teach you all kinds of “sex” knowledge that you can’t imagine!
l   The “sex” world of biology is an excellent popular science work with a perfect combination of science and interest. It has won an important popular science award on both sides of the Taiwan Strait - “the gold signature Award for creation of the fifth Wu Dayou Science Popularization Work Award”! The award is held every two years to select Chinese world * popular science books, divided into creation and translation, and set up gold signature award, silver signature award and excellent work award respectively.
l   Lin Zhengkun, the author of this book and a famous doctor in Taiwan, has a very professional knowledge base. When observing and writing the “sexual” world of biology, he does not lack fabric humanistic feelings, which makes biological common sense interesting under his description and won unanimous praise from authoritative experts on both sides of the Strait. It is especially suitable for college and middle school students and natural science lovers!
l   This is not a book on the details of sexual behavior, but a masterpiece of popular science on the diversity of biological reproductive strategies and the basic theories involved. It uses approachable language and simple examples to explain profound biological reproduction phenomena and related theories, and tell you the sexual knowledge you want to know but are embarrassed to ask. The book consists of 12 chapters, covering the knowledge about sex and evolution obtained by studying organisms based on the models of bacteria, yeast, cryptoalgae, fruit flies, mantis, spiders, orchids, nematodes, aphids, Komodo lizard, hammerhead shark and fish.
l   Do you avoid talking about “sex” in public, but look for information about “sex” in private? An excellent popular science book on sex is what our society urgently needs.
l   Don’t miss this book, which has won unanimous praise from authoritative experts. It is a must read sex museum for understanding life science!

Authoritative recommendation
Showing the important conditions of science begins with curiosity about things, making careful and careful observation, collecting first-hand data, and then analyzing and making conclusions Lin Zhengkun’s books meet these conditions. Even, he made his own illustrations, simple and simple, but they were effective expressions.
——Professor, Institute of zoology and Department of life sciences, Taiwan University   Yu Hongcan
This book uses a very approachable colloquial way to explain the profound biological reproduction phenomenon and related theories with simple examples. Therefore, I strongly recommend this good popular science book that you want to know but are embarrassed to ask sexual questions.
——Researcher of the Coastal Research Station of Taiwan’s “Central Research Institute”   Yan Hongyang

林正焜,台湾大学医学系毕业,曾为台大医院医师,现为开业医师、OneGene Biotech Inc.研发顾问。著有“生命三部曲”系列。其中,《认识DNA》一书介绍DNA;《细胞种子》介绍干细胞;本书则以性为主轴,兼及简介达尔文如何用开阔的心胸看待这个世界,也是这一系列的终曲。作者期待通过这三部著作,让喜爱科学的读者能从书中得到一些阅读的乐趣,同时体验到文明浪潮扑身而来的震撼;更期盼有越来越多的人在听到“是什么”“所以如何如何”的时候,要追究“为什么”。相关著作:《细胞种子:干细胞和脐带血的故事》(修订版);《认识DNA:基因科学的过去、现在与未来》(全新增修版)。

Lin Zhengkun, graduated from the Department of medicine of Taiwan University, was a doctor of NTU Hospital. Now he is a practitioner and a R & D consultant of OneGene biotech Inc. He is the author of the “trilogy of life” series. Among them, the book “understanding DNA” introduces DNA; Cell seeds introduces stem cells; This book takes sex as the main axis and introduces how Darwin viewed the world with an open mind. It is also the final song of this series. The author hopes that through these three works, readers who love science can get some fun from reading the book and experience the shock of the wave of civilization; I hope more and more people will investigate “why” when they hear “what” and “so how”. Related works: cell seeds: the story of stem cells and umbilical cord blood (Revised Edition); Understanding DNA: the past, present and future of genetic science (new and revised edition).
