Reviews

Presented in a question-and-answer format, The Orgasm Answer Guide covers everything you could want to know about orgasms but were afraid to ask.

Exhaustive, sweetly sex-positive, and funny in that unflappable science-nerd way.

Contributors, who are sexuality researchers and educators, give accessible, compassionate, research-based answers to 80 questions about orgasm. Good illustrations and comprehensive references complement a work that will be a valuable resource for sexuality educators and practitioners, and a great addition to the sexuality self-help genre. Highly recommended.

The authors hit this one out of the park! Their book answers key questions with a unique combination of science, credibility, and caring.
