In Bi: The Hidden Culture, History, and Science of Bisexuality, Julia Shaw undertakes the daunting task of exploring the largest sexual minority - bisexuals. The task for her is both personal as well as intellectual and professional, as she herself is proudly bisexual. 

From the beginning of the book, Shaw promises to dive deep into all the many different aspects of bisexuality - starting with the very invention of homosexuality. She coves the science of same-sex attraction, the history of bisexuality throughout a range of cultures, and more. The author definitely shows there is a depth of information to explore regarding bisexuality and she does an amazing job of accumulating all the information together in a way that no one ever has before. There is almost no way that you can pick this book up and not learn something. 

However, despite covering a wealth of information, the book is on the shorter side and padded throughout with the author’s own personal experiences. The writing was engaging and accessible - not weighed down with scientific jargon. Perfect for people questioning their sexuality, wanting to know more about their sexuality, or the genuinely curious. Hopefully this will be a jumping-off point for much more research and literature on this topic to come.
