Title: Sexuality in Mid-Life
First published: 1998
Description: Author Stephen B. Levine, a renowned authority on human sexuality and clinical professor of psychiatry, addresses the many phases of love - falling in love, being in love, staying in love, and spiritual love - with candor and compassion. Drawing on decades of clinical practice, he describes in extraordinary depth psychological intimacy, sexual desire, psychological development, the six eras of sexual life, extramarital affairs, menopause, sexual impairments due to new antidepressants, and other topics of particular importance to people at this stage of life. He places special emphasis on the biology of sexual decline in the fifties, and also includes a unique chapter on being a middle-aged therapist. Wide-ranging and up-to-date, Sexuality in Mid-Life is a work of great value to both laypersons and professionals.
