The author is an expert on the topic and provides logical well documented information that is presented in an easy to understand method. Some of his information is counter to the outdated thinking of many urologists. I find his compassion for understandng th truth and for presentng data for the benefit of patients to be comendable. I strongly recommend the book especially for those who need to reevaluate or learn about testosterone supplementation.

What was totally unexpected was how little of the part that I read (before just not reading it any longer--about halfway) is about men's sexuality. I guess I expected the good doctor to actually spend some time discussing in depth what men think about sex and sexuality in relationships and outside relationships, and why, perhaps, they might "fake it" for the sake of their partner.

Instead, the vast majority of what I read focused on the doctor's work providing sex-change, sex-enhancement, or reconstructive operations. The chapters read like an elongated commercial, selling the "virtues" of Viagra and mostly promoting his own practice--and not on the cheap, either!

I suspect Dr. Morgentaler means well, and he seems truly compassionate toward his patients and wants people to understand that what we learn via media images is not always what is reality. But, considering that most intelligent people probably surmise this, he really did not introduce much that one cannot figure out on their own. I really wanted more psychology and sociology, less Dr. Phil or QVC.

This was an interesting book. Very well written and I enjoyed the perspectives presented. Much of it make sense, and some didn't, but it was certain written in layman's terms where any semi-educated person could understand. I enjoyed reading this and would recommend it to anyone interested in psychology or sexuality.

Very well written & extremely informative! This should be read by women & men alike. It answers many questions & addresses some of the esteem issues that both genders might have within themselves at some point during their lives!
It is written by an MD who is also a professor, & after 25 years of experience, really has some valuable information to offer to anyone that has ever developed intimacy with a man & reached a stagnant point in their relationship & blamed themselves for it! I found so many answers that helped me to understand! It is a very easy read written in English, not medical jargon!… (meer)
