Older edition but good enough to be used as reference

This has little bit old information but good enough for learning it for first time use. It's got good illustration and information that's useful like how a human sexual organ, step-by-step arouses and engorges with blood on both genders, and shows which parts are called what and how it changes during sexual arousal. And body parts change position even in anticipation of seminal fluids from male ejaculation. That's all interesting and it further goes into the political and socialization.
