Reviews
This book encourages debate and argument. I predict Sexual Disorders will become a classic.
Fagan's application of the four perspectives to sexual disorders serves as an important resource for clinicians of all therapeutic disciplines, which provide insight into a challenging niche of therapeutic work that is often overlooked.
Dr. Fagan combines impressive scholarship, clinical acumen, and a highly accessible writing style to discuss different perspectives on the evaluation of sexual disorders. This book addresses complex issues with astonishing clarity and flows smoothly from chapter to chapter with thematic continuity. It is a delight to read.
This book is unique in that it offers a clear methodology on how to understand sexual disorders from the multiple perspectives that the clinician faces. Dr. Fagan is a superb writer, and Sexual Disorders makes a much-needed contribution to the field of psychiatry, psychology, and human sexuality.
