Science Gone Astray: Evolution and Rape [Book Review]
Michigan Law Review 99 (6):1536-1559 (2001)
Abstract
This is a critique of "A Natural History of Rape: Biological Bases of Sexual Coercion" (Thornhill & Palmer, 2000). Lloyd argues that they have failed to do "excellent science" as required to defend themselves against criticism. As an example, Lloyd contends that they make conclusions which depend on rape being a single trait, while failing to prorivde any basis for such an assumption.Author's Profile
