Reviews"An exceptionally well-thought-out, practical, and informative guidebook. With the introduction of DSM-5, this third edition is an important addition to the literature that should be given a prominent place on every clinician's shelf. The authors have done a remarkable job of navigating the complexities of assessment and treatment of sexual difficulties in men and women. They provide the reader with excellent solutions to difficult questions, highly illuminating case studies, and tremendously valuable summary tables. This book is a valuable gift to clinicians who work with sexual dysfunction in their practices and an essential text for clinical training programs."--Cindy M. Meston, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Texas at Austin "Wincze and Weisberg, world-renowned experts with decades of clinical experience, provide an erudite and clinically useful integration of biomedical and psychological knowledge about the treatment of sexual dysfunction. With treatment strategies, up-to-the-minute diagnostic information, and biomedical developments, this easy-to-read third edition has it all. Any clinician treating sexual dysfunction in all of its presentations should read this book."--David H. Barlow, PhD, ABPP, Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry and Founder and Director Emeritus, Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders, Boston University "The lively and descriptive case material attests to the authors' real-world treatment experience. Their empathy and understanding for the complicated nature of sexual concerns is very evident. Integrating medical and psychological aspects of treatment in a way that is both practical and readable, this book is a powerful contribution to the field. It would be an excellent addition to a master's- or doctoral-level sexuality treatment course. Additionally, it could be used as a supplemental text in a couples counseling or behavioral medicine course."--Francesca G. Giordano, PhD, Program Director, Master of Arts in Counseling, The Family Institute at Northwestern University "This third edition provides a comprehensive overview of assessment and treatment of male and female sexual problems.

Case illustrations and step-by-step details of assessment procedures contribute to the book's helpfulness for clinicians working with individuals and couples."--Cynthia A. Graham, PhD, Department of Psychology, University of Southampton, United Kingdom; Editor-in-Chief, Journal of Sex Research "The third edition of this highly respected work is an indispensable introduction to the current state of the field.

Epstein, PhD, Director, Couple and Family Therapy Program, University of Maryland, College Park, "A clear, precise, well-written overview of classic concepts integrated with the authors' own blend of empirically based research and clinical experience....This volume on sexual dysfunction is one I highly recommend both for professionals who have had experience in treating sexual dysfunction and for beginners who need a concise, readable reference book that provides an up-to-date literature review as well as a heuristic biopsychosocial model of sexual dysfunction."   (on the first edition), "A clear, precise, well-written overview of classic concepts integrated with the authors' own blend of empirically based research and clinical experience....This volume on sexual dysfunction is one I highly recommend both for professionals who have had experience in treating sexual dysfunction and for beginners who need a concise, readable reference book that provides an up-to-date literature review as well as a heuristic biopsychosocial model of sexual dysfunction."-- Hospital and Community Psychiatry  (on the first edition), "An exceptionally well-thought-out, practical, and informative guidebook.
