in a committed relationship." - Christiane Northrup, M.D., New York

lasting and real." --Joyce Maynard, New York Times bestselling
author of At Home in the World and The Best of Us

life, this is the book for you." --Jed Diamond, Ph.D. Founder,

Snyder is prescribing a return not to sex per se, but to erotic
life. It's not a 'how-to' book. It's a 'why' and a 'what' book. As
such, it may actually live up to its title." --Rosalyn Dischiavo,

apart, and how to put it back together again." --Susan C. Vaughan,
M.D., Director of the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic
Training and Research, and author of The Talking Cure "I have very
rarely been so impressed with the practicality and engagement of a
couples' guide to maintaining long-term intimacy. Dr. Snyder's
approach is incredibly compelling and will serve readers of this
book well. I am so glad he has made his work available to all." --
Kat Van Kirk, Ph.D., author of The Married Sex Solution: A
Realistic Guide to Saving Your Sex Life

continued fabulous sex." --Mary Jane Minkin, M.D., Clinical
