Once, women may have accepted a life without sex. But society has changed
and women are no longer prepared to tolerate such an important gap in their
lives. In the past, women often believed no one else had the same problems,
or that what they felt was a depressing part of getting old. And what
relief they felt when they were told they were not alone or odd, that it
had nothing to do with ageing - that women can be enjoying sex into their
80s or beyond if that's what they want. So how do you recover? Can you? How
do you access help? What treatments will work for you? In this book, I aim
to provide answers to these burning questions.

This book has some excellent information on the female sexual function and so-called "dysfunction". It looks at different aspects of sexual problems and offers some advice on how to deal with them.
However, through-out the book the authors seem to dismiss many forms of treatment for sexual issues with women and repeatedly imply or state that hormone treatment is the answer for many of the sexual issues which women may face. It appears so weighted with advice recommending hormone treatment or giving cases where psychotherapy hasn't worked and pills have, including mention of specific pharmaceuticals that I believe the work is somewhat unbalanced and biased in favour of pharmacological solutions.
In my experience as a sexual health educator and practitioner, sexual issues are the result of a combination physiological and psychological issues and, in many cases, of purely psychological issues - the body after all is controlled by the mind! I do not believe the book reflects a suitably balanced account of this situation which leads me to question its validity as indendent research on the subject...
