The book covers the basics of impotence: physcial and psychological causes. The authors seem to emphasize the psychological more so. Yet their therapeutic suggestions in this area are just about nonexistent.

Their discussion of Viagra is just poor; it is not connected well to their previous chapters. What physical and emotional problems can Viagra overcome and to what degree? Or how long do the effects of Viagra last; all that is stated is how long it takes to become effective. Something is needed beyond the minimal.

The book just does not go past the first level in anything. All in all, I would certainly hope that there is a better book out there for the lay person.

I found Milsten and Slowinski's THE SEXUAL MALE very complete, scientifically grounded, and yet wonderfully readable. As a psychologist and sexual therapist, I myself have professionally worked with men and couples with sexual problems for more than 20 yeaars, and find this book to be currently the most useful in addressing erection concerns. I especially value that it is realistic, honest, and positive -- avoiding the "hype" that often accompanies books on sexuality. Excellent book!

As a young single male, I found this book to be very informative and educational. This book focuses not only on the treatment, but also on the prevention of sexual problems. Drs. Milsten and Slowinski have truly written a guide to maintaining sexual health. I found that the emphasis placed on the maintenance of a healthy relationship with one's partner as a means to enjoying life-long sexual potency as being particularly helpful. This book is a must read for men of all ages!

Don't let the title fool you. This book should also be read by all women and partners of men. It is informative, entertaining, and so easy to read!The authors are sensitive to relationship issues and describe how women sexual difficulties affect the male sexual partner. An eye opener for women!

As a therapist, I found this book to offer useful information and practical support to men and their partners on how to maintain a healthy & satisfying sex life. It is filled with up to date information from the medical side. But it also treats the emotional issues as well. Women will find new ways to understand why & how men experience sexual response. Read it to great benefit. It's an excellent resource.

As a practicing internist in a busy New England city, I have found THE SEXUAL MALE to be an invaluable resource for both me and my patients. The authors provide succinct and easy to understand explanations for the vast majority of sexual dysfunctions encountered by the men in my practice. It candidly discusses a difficult topic that many men are uncomfortable discussing even in the confines of a physician's office. I often reccomend it to my patients. Many thanks to Drs Milsten and Slowinski for helping me better serve the men and women in my practice.

having some questions regarding the changes that men go through, I found this book to be a candid and well written book. the examples cited were pretty realistic. in comparision to some other books, this one was not burdened down with charts and diagrams that are often a bore or too complex for a lay person to absorb. was worth the purchase proce to me

I learned a lot about how to be more supportive to my partner. There is also good information about things you can do to try and prevent problems before they happen.

I found this book to be very informative and helpful in understanding my recovery from prostate cancer and the resultant side-effects therefrom.

Probably because both an MD and a Psychologist wrote this, you get every possible answer you could want. They tell you that you don't just swallow a pill and hope for the best. There's a lot you need to know- both mentally and physically- and this book is written so you can understand it. I really recommend it.
