Judith Leavitt has identified a new phenomenon in human sexuality and sex therapy known as the sexual alarm system. Therapists, particularly sex therapists, and women alike will gain informative, useful, and therapeutic information from this text. -- Gerald Weeks, University of Nevada, Las Vegas Dr. Judith Leavitt draws from her long career in sex therapy to identify the psychoneurobiology of the 'sexual alarm system' triggered by age-old control, misogyny, and over-sexualization of women and girls.

This is a unique and invaluable resource for healthcare professionals, for women, and for their partners. -- Gina Ogden, author of "The Heart and Soul of Sex", "Women Who Love Sex", and "The Return of Desire" Groundbreaking!
