1.0 out of 5 stars Dr. Young did not write this book!, March 16, 2001

This review is from: Cybersex (Hardcover)

Just for the record, I am a student in an MBA program with Dr. Young and she did not write this book. The so-called content of this book is completely hypocritical of her true beliefs. The trash included in this book is not accurate of Dr. Young's teachings and counseling.

1.0 out of 5 stars Its a compilation., July 1, 2001

Of course Dr Young didnt write this book. It is a compulation of various couples and their intimate encounters online. Sadly though the portrayal and explanations of these encounters are taken in the completely wrong context, even making a mockery of a relationship which unless you are in it..you really can't understand it. Sometimes Long Distance is the only way a couple can have a true relationship. Personally think more of an indept study should have been done on the writers and subjects of each scene..name, age, and whereabouts really doesn't give us a perspective of how the person is..and how that particular scene affects their life. Especially since this is a "Dr." wonders if any type of study is being involved with the subjects. The book on the other hand, well if you would like to see how cybersex can enhance things, it can be a great book. A great deal of spelling and editorial errors..but that is the beauty of it, these scenes were one time encounters. I do know however some of the scenes were adjusted to better suit the book. Probably should have left it original uncensored.
