Summary: This book is an excellent reference for sex therapy students
Review: I found this book to be so simple in its approach yet so intensely informative, that it is not only a book for couples or individuals who want to improve or enhance their sex life, it is also an excellent source of information for the serious psychology student, or sex therapy student. The techniques are excellent, productive, and effective. It is also interesting that this book, in its third printing, is still totally timely and refreshingingly new. Dr. Charles Miller, NYC

Summary: Quite dated and not very helpful
Review: I found this book to be very outdated -- apparently it was written in 1976 and it definitely reflects the times. Of the discussed problems, the closest thing to "a lack of desire to have sex" was termed "frigidity," which is offensive and very superficial. This book is not for people who have real problems feeling sexual. It is very simplistic and unrealistic in that it suggests masturbation as a beginning step to increasing sexual desire. As a therapist myself, I believe this suggestion trivializes the legitimate problem of sexual dysfunction due to lack of desire by assuming a person would want to do these things but just doesn't know how. This book may prove useful to couples who simply need a little kick to their sex life, but not for people with bona fide problems, in my opinion.
