Broad but Shallow Survey,
By
This review is from: The Smart Guide to Better Sex: Supplements & Herbs to Fire Up Your Sex Life (Paperback)
They cover a lot of ground but don't really seem to understand what they're talking about. For example, l-arginine is covered but they fail to mention that it may be most useful to vegatarians who may lack this amino acid found largely in meat diets. What really disappointed me was a lack of convincing first-hand discussions and a healthly skepticism. I'd expect anyone who recommended a love potion to have least tried it themselves! There is no clue that they have done so. They should have given the reader a better, more realistic idea of what to expect. Take yohimbe, for example. It's a very strong herb that works but with significant downsides- one does not come away with an understanding of the complexity of the experience. There are better books on the subject!

Lack of credibility a serious flaw in such a book,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Smart Guide to Better Sex: Supplements & Herbs to Fire Up Your Sex Life (Paperback)
Neither author evidently has any professional degree or apparent qualification to write a scientific book. I think that most readers would find them to be considerably more credible if they had such a degree, especially in view of the fact that Morgenthaler and Simms frequently foray onto (and beyond) the fringes of scientific knowledge. Such speculation would perhaps be tolerable if it were being espoused by someone who had a solid base of scientific training who had very sound reasons for conjecturing in this manner; it is difficult if not impossible for a reader who has no scientific background to judge whether or not the speculations of authors who have no scientific training are credible. The cover art and one of the fonts used in the text of this book can be best described as comical; they further detract from the credibility of the book.

fascinating information,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Smart Guide to Better Sex: Supplements & Herbs to Fire Up Your Sex Life (Paperback)
I don't know how much of this information I will actually USE, but I was fascinated by the number and variety of natural,non-prescription products available and their specific uses. Of course, I would do additional research and follow up on the apparently excellentreferences in this book before using any of the products, but there is an enormous wealth and variety of information in this book. It appears to be well researched.
