Masturbation as a Means of Achieving Sexual Health Book

I'm fascinated by sex. I'm fascinated by the brain. I have a little bit of a crush on Daniel Amen. This book had so much potential, and fell so flat.

Mainly, it felt like it would have made a better article than book, or that it should have gone through a few more rigorous rounds of editing. Yes, I know that sexuality doesn't exist independently of other variables in one's life (mental illness, health, etc.), but this book had SO many tangents in it that left me wondering a) what exactly this was SUPPOSED to say about the topic at and and b) when we would get back to said topic.

There wasn't really anything new here; it's just a repackaging of the information I already read in "Change Your Brain, Change Your Body," which already includes a chapter on sex. It felt like a book that was quickly pushed out the door because of it being a "hot topic" (when is sex not a hot topic, after all?) for a quick buck or a surge in PR appearances. I guess that if this is the "hook" that's necessary to get the average person caring about their brain's health, then this book has it's place. It just wasn't really with me.
