*by J***. on Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2014*

Some excellent content, especially for a couple that has not had individual or marital therapy.  But it's very wordy at times and the author does not resist the temptation to be pedantic--showing off her knowledge of research that she thinks is relevant to her propositions.  That gets a little tedious.  And a workbook for us both, it's not. She does help the reader to find a balance between relaxation and excitement, and to never separate sexuality from relationship building.My biggest issue with Dr. Resnick concerns her "values-neutral" approach to human sexuality.  While it's obviously hip to take an "anything goes," relativistic position on sexual ethics, many married couples reading this will have a hard time not wondering:  Did I miss out by not sleeping around and exploring my libidinous opportunities more before marriage?  If up to 60 percent of spouses cheat, is incompatibility inevitable?  Do I have to learn to masturbate to be a better lover?  She seems to have no issue with any form of sexual fantasy, even involving illicit activity--unless one feels compelled to act it out.  Isn't that the idea?A great number of couples I know will not appreciate all the discussions of homosexual arousal alongside of heterosexual content.  But again, in her world, it's all the same.And porn? Why not; anything that stimulates sexual interest has to be good, right?  Apparently, in her exhaustive survey of the literature, she isn't aware that oxytocin, the bonding hormone, has been shown to make orgasm more satisfying for committed lovers, while the lack of it in masturbation through porn helps to contribute to sexual addiction, a subject she strangely avoids completely.I wish I could excise some of the helpful material for use with the patients in my clinical psychology practice, but as it stands, I can't recommend this book. That's particularly unfortunate because the author, unlike so many today in this over-sexed society, really gets it:  we should not separate sex from love.

    This Book Could Save Your Relationship
  

*by L***L on Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2012*

Has your sex-life flat-lined?If you're in a long-term committed relationship, Heart of Desire could be the answer.Stella Resnick not only explains in clear language the ABC's of human sexuality, she offers specific exercises to bring your love-making to life.In a section called "The Principle of Relaxed Excitement," for example, she explains that "when people want to improve their sex lives, the very sense of urgency...militates against achieving the goal."Offering sound and simple advice to calm you down, Resnick outlines useful techniques to "balance your nervous system" as a prelude to satisfying sex.  This includes "conscious breathing, mindfullness and focused attention."The book is filled with stories about couples who - in the therapist's office and in the privacy of their bedrooms - found new ways to express affection and passion.Keep in mind that this is a candid guide for partners - straight and gay - from an experienced therapist who knows her business and doesn't pull punches.So if you're looking for the "Keys to the Pleasures of Love," Heart of Desire is more than a good read.  It just might save your relationship.
