The innovative program described in this book revolutionizes the the treatment of sexual dysfunction. During eleven years of daily clinical work, more than five hundred couples have been treated at Masters and Johnson's Reproductive Biology Research Foundation in St. Louis. Here the relationship itself is the patient. The authors stress that there is no uninvolved partner when sex is a problem. Therefore they treat the partners even if only one appears to be sexually dysfunctional. And their therapy techniques have proven successful in 80 percent of all cases treated. The key to this unprecedented record is the role of the dual therapy team. Masters and Johnson have found that it takes both a man and a woman therapist to treat a couple effectively. The dual therapy team acts as a catalyst, encouraging communication between partners when none has existed before. They use psychological and psychological methods of treating impotence, ejaculatory incompetence, premature ejaculation, orgasmic dysfunction in women, vaginismus, and painful intercourse. Basic to all treatment techniques is the premise that attitudes and ignorance rather than any mental or physical illness are responsible for most sexual problems. The two-week rapid therapy program developed by Masters and Johnson includes both counseling and specific instructions for patients to follow in privacy. All results of success or failure reported in Human Sexual Inadequacy Are substantiated by a unique five-year patient follow up program.

I bought this because I am trying to help someone with one of the dysfunctions addressed in the book. Since Masters&Johnson were pioneers in this field in 1970, I felt that there would be useful information here that was not out of date. This is so; an online search of the same subject confirmed there was useful information here. I might as well get a cheap used copy for this purpose rather than an expensive new one.

They are still the experts after all these years and their techniques and descriptions are easy to follow. They explain everything in simple non tech language. it's all about sensitivity and giving to your loved one.

4.0 out of 5 stars an important book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 21, 2017

This book is a companion study to  The Human Sexual Response . Published in 1970, it drew on years of research into the field of sexual 'inadequacies' within humans, e.g. impotency. While the first study had outlined the typical responses involved in sexual activity, this book shifted focus - exploring the atypical.

Written by Masters and Johnson, who by 1970's were acknowledged experts in human sexuality, this book aimed to offer 'solutions' to sexual problems. Of course, what counts as a "problem" is open to interpretation ... and, in this context, aspects of the book are now rather dated. Yet as a guide to studying sex, and addressing possible problems, this book presents valuable information on ideas and methods. It draws on therapy sessions involving 100's of participants - and the data remains relevant.

It's not always easy to read - not because it's especially complex, but because of its rather dry tone. Nonetheless, for anyone interested in this area of study, I highly recommend it.

come per Human Sexual Responce, l'unica cosa che non mi è piaciuta è il colore troppo bianco delle pagine. ho anche notato che il carattere di alcune pagine è più piccolo rispetto ad altre. non trovo dunque molto curata l'edizione; c'è da dire tuttavia che è stato facilmente reperibile e per questo sono comunque soddisfattissima del mio acquisto.
