TheRoutledge International Handbook of Sexual Addiction brings together a comprehensive range of perspectives on sexual addiction from a worldwide selection of scholars and therapists. It sets out to define sexual addiction and to study its causes from a range of different psychological perspectives. "This handbook is essential reading for anyone working academically or clinically in the field of sexuality. It is heavyweight in terms of its authorship and its scope and approach to the issues of out of control sexual behaviour, covering behavioural, psychological, social, and neurological contributory processes. ?It presents a balance of the arguments for and against the concept of sexual addiction and discusses varying treatment options. As such, it should also be required reading for all therapeutic students as they formulate their own ways of working with this ubiquitous clinical presentation." - Dr Glyn Hudson Allez, Forensic Psychosexual Therapist, Fellow of COSRT, UK
