Using case studies and examples, this book proposes five universal human needs and three categories of coping strategies where major sexual problems find pathological camouflage to elude detection and treatment. It gives professionals and lay persons alike the techniques for recognising the 'unspeakable monsters' of sexual disease.
This fascinating work is a summing up of Dr. John Money's clinical experience and research on the frontiers of human sexuality. Written in response to the current lack of a fully recognised science of sexology and full-service sexology clinics, Money gives professionals and lay persons alike the techniques for recognising the 'unspeakable monsters' of sexual disease that lurk behind many physical and mental problems. Money contends that sexually related diseases like AIDS and sex crimes such as child abuse, rape, and serial murder will continue to wreak havoc in society until we learn to deal scientifically with the sometimes disturbing realities of sexuality. Using case studies and well-known examples, the author proposes five universal human needs and three categories of coping strategies where major sexual problems find pathological camouflage to elude detection and treatment, often until it's too late.
