Focusing on the pitfalls of sexual relationships, this work emphasizes the importance of "whole person" medicine and shows that therapy can have results in only a few sessions. This edition has been revised to be suitable for a professional readership.
Most people experience anxiety about their sexuality at some time in their lives. This book is for those who are trying to understand their feelings and are looking for insight into their difficulties. It is also for professionals who try to help such people, including doctors, nurses, psychologists and counsellors. The psychosomatic nature of sexual difficulty, dependant as it is on physical and emotional responses is described and illustrated by true case studies disguised only sufficiently to preserve confidentiality. The book is divided into three sections dealing with problems of developing sexuality, the difficulty of expressing personal needs and difficulties that develop in established relationships. Thus it is as relevant for the adolescent who is facing early sexual problems as it is for the older person coming to terms with physical impairment and emotional loss. For the professional worker the case studies show the insights that can be gained when the whole person is studied rather than anatomical parts or their performance. This book should be of interest to primary care physicians, family planning nurses, gynaecologists and the general public.
