Summary: The latest research on natural aphrodisiacs
Review: Nancy Nickell is an educational writer, lecturer, research, and textbook author in the subjects of food, nutrition, and alternative therapies, In Nature's Aphrodisiacs, Nickell's surveys and carefully examines the latest research on natural aphrodisiacs for initiating, restoring, or augmenting human sexuality for men and women. There have been folk lore and folk medicine with respect to substances found in nature and thought to enhanced human sexuality. Nickell's explores the question as to whether or not there are scientific explanations or verifications for everything from oysters to powdered rhinoceros horn. Nature's Aphrodisiacs clearly separates fact from fiction, and superstition from science, as the non-specialist general reader is capably informed as to what genuine aphrodisiacs really are, and what they can do when properly administered. Very highly recommended for personal, academic, and community library human sexuality reading lists and reference collections.
