The book is elegantly written with loving and rigorous attention to empirical data.  Chapter 2, on the role of theory, is an important contribution and should be required reading for all sex therapists. There is an abundance of material on physiology, population studies and cross-cultural findings. Bancroft has done a remarkable work of reviewing  the last several years of research in sexology, proposes resolutions of conflicting results, and offers guides for therapy from research findings. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePrepared by one of the world’s leading authorities, \u003ci\u003eHuman Sexuality and its Problems\u003c\/i\u003e remains the foremost comprehensive reference in the field.
