Human Sexuality: Function, Dysfunction, Paraphilias, and Relationships, explores the interplay of intimacy and sexuality; how it can enhance relationships, and how it can negatively affect them, or be affected by them. When individuals or partners encounter sexual problems or dysfunctions it can have a long-lasting affect both biologically and psychologically. Chapters on sexual offenses and paraphilias and what treatment options are available to sexual offenders are also included. This is the first book to place sexuality where it belongs, within the context of relationships, demonstrating how sexuality relates to intimacy by both enhancing and negatively affecting it.
