The Psychology of Sexual Passion by David Schnarch
Contents
In The Psychology of Sexual Passion, David Schnarch, one of the leading sex researchers, offers a profound insight into the dynamics of intimate relationships. He shows how emotional and sexual blockages can be overcome in order to experience a fulfilling, passionate relationship well into old age.
Using numerous case studies, he explains how couples can find new physical and emotional intimacy. The focus is less on sexual dysfunctions and more on emotional fulfillment in the partnership. Every form of intimacy - from kissing to more complex erotic experiences - is seen as a mirror for self-understanding and relationship understanding.
Schnarch's confrontational approach particularly appeals to long-term couples and inspires them to personal and mutual growth.
