"The Sexual Life of the Child" by Dr. Albert Moll is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the complexities of childhood sexuality, focusing on the origins, developments, and influences of sexual feelings and responses in children. Dr. Moll aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of sexual behavior in children to inform caregivers, educators, and health professionals.

He outlines the various periods of childhood development, underscoring the importance of acknowledging sexual impulses during these formative years.
