It is a valuable reference book" |s British Journal of Sexual Medicine Vol.7 Oct. 1980, "It is clear that a book which is so varied, so wide in its coverage and which arouses in parts strong agreement and in other parts strong diagreement, merits serious and prolonged study and attention" |s International Journal of Psychoanalysis 1981
