Product Description
Review
"A silver anniversary is an important milestone worth celebrating, and this landmark text remains crucial and invigorating after more than a quarter-century. The fourth edition reflects many exciting, continuing advances in knowledge about sex and intimate relationships. It recognizes the need to assess and treat individuals and couples on both the psychological and physical levels, offering a balanced, integrative, and accessible understanding of each problem area discussed. This book is certainly a key text for trainee sex therapists, medical and nursing students, and practicing clinicians, and I intend to recommend it across a multidisciplinary training class of postgraduates." - Kevan R. Wylie, MD, Editor-in-Chief, 'Sexual and Relationship Therapy'; Porterbrook Clinic and Sheffield Hallam University, UK
"With this fourth edition, Leiblum demonstrates once again why she is this generation's leader in the education and training of sex therapists. This outstanding, well-regarded text should be on the shelf of every practicing sex therapist and trainee. The chapters are well written, well organized, interesting, and timely. The liberal use of case study material enriches each chapter by illustrating the practical uses of the concepts described. As with previous editions, this book will be required reading in my graduate-level sex therapy courses." - Daniel N. Watter, EdD, private practice, Parsippany, New Jersey, USA; Adjunct Professor of Psychology, Seton Hall University and Farleigh Dickinson University, USA

Customer Reviews
The only limitation is beyond the control of the authors. The lack of empirical validation and controlled studies for many of the interventions. Sex therapy is not paid enough attention in this country, so many of the techniques and interventions described are from limited cases or from other countries - as are the authors.
