The Illustrated Manual of Sex Therapy reviews the nature and causes of male and female sexual dysfunctions, and describes and portrays the various erotic techniques and exercises employed in sex therapy.

This highly practical manual is an indispensable guide to the nature and causes of the six major sexual dysfunctions - inhibited female excitement, female orgastic dysfunction, vaginismus, impotence, retarded ejaculation, and premature ejaculation - and the therapeutic sexual techniques used in overcoming them.

The clear, accessible language and exquisitely rendered drawings combine to make this book an essential addition to the libraries of practitioners, teachers, and students of medicine and psychology- and most important, of those who experience sexual dysfunction themselves.
