Women today are more knowledgeable about sex than ever before ߝ but many still struggle with sexual myths, self-doubt, and "embarrassing" questions. This trusted book has already helped many thousands of women understand how their bodies work and take charge of their sexuality. The authors are experienced therapists who present solid, science-based information on the topics women are talking about and those that aren't discussed enough ߝ from how to have more satisfying sex to questions about hormones, anatomy, relationships, body image, and trauma. Empowering exercises foster self-discovery and self-confidence. Fully updated, and with a greater focus on positive psychology and resilience, the second edition features expanded discussions of sexual response, male sexuality, sexually transmitted infections, and lesbian sexuality.

Recenzii

"The most comprehensive book on women's sexual health I have ever read. The clear, positive information and the suggested exercises cover all aspects of women's sexuality and offer ways for women to take charge of their sexual selves. The second edition features new information and resources, offered in a supportive and affirming manner, which will help readers develop sexual comfort, confidence, and satisfaction. A 'must read' for women of all ages." - Beverly Whipple, coauthor of The G Spot and The Science of Orgasm
"This second edition takes a classic book on female sexuality to another level... With a focus on female sexual satisfaction and pleasure, this book is a 'must have' for women of all ages and backgrounds. I can't wait to share it with my daughter!" - Hilda Hutcherson, author of What Your Mother Never Told You About Sex
"The second edition of Sex Matters for Women will allow me to quietly retire my tattered and worn copy of the first edition. I have lent this superb book to dozens of the women I have treated." - Sheryl A. Kingsberg, Case Western Reserve University, Ohio, USA
"This is my favorite book on women's sexuality and sexual health! In the second edition, the authors respond to new research and deliver an up-to-date, even more enlightening book that emphasizes the positive. It's an empowering guide that you can fully rely on for accurate information and useful exercises for sexual growth. I especially love how the book celebrates female sexuality in its many diverse forms." - Pamela H. Stephenson-Connolly, author of Sex Life
"Coverage is comprehensive and accurate, with information about issues that are rarely addressed." - Library Journal
"This is a book women can trust. The therapists who have written this careful, compassionate, and instructive guide, obviously know and care a great deal about helping women have fulfilling sex lives. They illuminate the cultural and familial influences that shape women's sexual beliefs and behaviors from early childhood, and they provide effective tools to help readers navigate their sexuality today. The first edition was a classic, and the updated second edition is even better." - Pepper Schwartz, University of Washington, USA
"This book opened multiple doors for me as it helped me explore the story of my sexuality and reexamine sexual beliefs and misconceptions that I didn't even know I had. It is packed with factual, relevant information. It has also been an invaluable read for me as a mother raising a young daughter." - Andrea, Hawaii
