Summary: Sex for Dummies (for Dummies)
Comment: As a medical doctor specializing in adolescent and adult Psychiatry, I have found Dr Ruth's book extremely valuable as a non-threatening resource. Having met with her in May 2001 in New Orleans at the Annual American Psychiatric Association's meeting May 5-10th, I was amazed at her insights about Human Sexuality. Masters and Johnson brought to the Field of Medicine the Physiology of Sexuality, but Dr Ruth carries it to the next level of important knowledge re: Human Intimacy. It is not a "how to" book with the misguided concepts of the Hugh Hefner "Sex is a Triumph of Mechanical Engineering". Instead, she is down to earth, practical, and non-threatening...so that her readers learn and enjoy the basic realities that human sexuality need not be a "competitive sport" nor do couples need to adhere to their culteral expectations of the "Myth of the Mutual Orgasm"....I have had so many individuals and couples leave my office...seeing the book on my bookself...and perhaps at first laughing, only to purchase the book and devour it in the privacy of their own home. I have found it a valuable springboard in working with individuals and couples with sexual dysfunction. As for the person - Dr Ruth - she is delighful, empathic, great sense of humor, and is extremely well informed with the current scientific knowledge of Human Sexuality David L Bransford MD

Summary: NOW it all makes sense!
Comment: Wow, was I way off base! Thank you Dr. Ruth for setting me straight.

Seriously, though, I love this book. It treats a very important topic in a direct but humorous way; it's crammed full of useful bits of information; and it doesn't have all of those soft-core porn images that the other books seem to delight in. Describing the acts is good enough for me, there's no need for a book to be full of stunt rumps to get the point across.

Summary: Former Marathon Man
Comment: I know it sounds rediculous, but I used to think that it was all about speed. I've learned through this book to atleast wait to get my pants off :)

Overall the book is very detailed and a great read for anyone with little to medium experience.
