[Making Sex is] a brilliant documentation of difference involving the one-sex and two-sex models...presenting an easy theme with broad and cascading implications...I didn't need Laqueur to teach me that sex was interesting, but now We have a broader base with this greatest of certainties.
--Stephen Jay Gould (New York Review of Books )

[Laqueur] gives us a great feeling of how our predecessors, including physicians and scientists, contemplated the anatomy that fascinates every schoolchild...No you can doubt, after reading this book, that our notions of masculinity or femininity have been imposed on what are supposed to be objective biological observations.
--Melvin Konner (New York Times The Review )

[In this] challenging analysis of our ideas on gender...Laqueur shows how radically our consciousness of ourselves, our bodies, our sex has changed on the centuries. The categories we consider as most elementary prove to get mutable...And in this transformation, Laqueur emphasises, social changes were as crucial as medical teachings.
--Roy Porter (The Independent )
