Constructing the Sexual Crucible: An Integration of Sexual and Marital Therapy (Norton professional books)

Customer Reviews:

Magnus Opus

By Joseph Horak, Ph.D. - March 1, 1999

Schnarch has completed a Herculean task of exploring in depth the role of intimacy and sexuality (and spirituality). The sexual crucible model clearly is the most sophisticated model available today for marriage and sex therapists. His novel approach propells the field beyond the behavioral and technique focus that most therapist wouldn't even do if they had too. I was impressed that he attempted to address spirituality and some of his concepts in the final chapter are interesting. However, he falls into a simple dichotomy in analyzing religion which basically is a good/bad split. He really doesn't understand the depth of thought behind some of the previous great thinkers and sees them only through 20th century glasses, where they are easy targets. Overall, I strongly recommend this book to therapists. It is truly groundbreaking.

A break through book about the dynamics of intimate relation

By A Customer - December 17, 1995

This book makes sense of the relationship between personal growth and intimacy with another. Schnarch describes how differentiation can be accelerated with the use of sexual intimacy. He gives the basis for a decision in favor of monogamy without one bit of moralism. A very exciting book

Best book ever written on relationships

By TucsonShopper - December 23, 2011

Based on generally accepted relational theory. Alas, it's very technical. Dr. Schnarch has a few easier to read books, but personally I feel the articles he's written over the years are better if you can find one (such as in the Networker March/April 1993 at the URL in the first comment).
