In the grip of desire

Description: Written in a first-person, narrative style, In the Grip of Desire gives both the professional and lay reader the opportunity to experience the sequestered world of the therapist as she works with people who have sexual secrets and behaviors. Referencing the academic literature and research, using case material, and a broad use of literary references, the book demonstrates the basic concepts and issues in treating compelling and legal sexual behaviors. The book also offers a jargon-free, human view of the subject. Golden speaks to the universality of the experience of sexual obsessions and compelling sexual behaviors and their impact on relationships, families, and society.
