I highly recommend this book to men who have gone astray and are trying to change their ill ways for the better. This book gave me the confidence to know why I was doing what I was doing. Rather than castigate men, the author tries to logically explain to the female and also male reader that having an affair, though bad, is not the end of the world. Life can be repaired and this book is part of the cure to remedy sins of commission from the past and present.

This is the most comprehensive book I've read on the subject of promiscuous males. I appreciate Carol's well-balanced research on the subject. Her compassion for both men and women on this subject is astounding. Most books on the subject of promisicuity solely blame the female partner for her male's sexual choices/addiction.

I originally purchased this book during the mid to late 80's and still have the original copy. I took a chance and loaned it to my best friend who was devastated by her husband's affair with a close female relative. I gave her this book as a last resort since I normally don't loan out my favorite books. After reading it completely, she returned it to me. Some years afterward, she indicated to me that she (half-heartedly, I assume) planned to do something terrible to her cheating husband, her female relative and herself. So I think Botwin's book may have prevented a triple tragedy. For sure, it helped me feel better! Thanks Carol.
