Book Review: Sexual Dysfunctions: Handbook of Sexual Dysfunction
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Sexual Dysfunctions Handbook of Sexual Dysfunction Richard Balon, R Taylor Segraves, editors. Boca Ratan (FL): Taylor & Francis; 2005. 339 p. US$149.95. Reviewer rating: Good This book, written by 24 of world's foremost authorities on topic, is full of information on dysfunctions. In DSM, dysfunctions are defined as those psychiatric conditions that interfere with response cycle. However, definition excludes gender identity disorders and paraphilias, which fall under general category of disorders. All DSM-IV-TR dysfunctions are covered in book, with exception of dysfunction(s) due to medical conditions, which did not get its own chapter but is dealt with in subsections of other chapters. Also included is a chapter on paraphilic disorders. However, gender identity disorders and disorders not otherwise specified (DSM 302.9) are not discussed. Each chapter has, on average, 100 selected references, with exception of chapter on aversion disorder, which contains 17 references. Each chapter attempts, with varying success, to describe a problem, its prevalence, historic approaches, and current treatments. The DSM takes a considerable amount of pounding, with almost every author commenting at least in passing on inadequacy of DSM's current diagnostic criteria. In part, this is because authors go beyond usual material to present and discuss areas of research and clinical controversy. A thematic consistency throughout this book is its consideration of multiple perspectives and disciplines in assessment and treatment of each disorder. One theme that receives inconsistent treatment is whether dysfunctions have been medicalized and whether or not this is a good thing. In their introduction, editors observe that field of sex therapy is rapidly evolving, which they attribute to the discovery of effective oral therapies for male disorder and subsequent search for similar therapies for women (p 8). However, other sections of book question even whether a sexual dysfunction is dysfunctional (for example, Van Ree, who sometimes regards vaginismus as an adequate reaction to an inadequate way of life [p 279]). This is not a handbook for beginners. In fact, I am not even sure it is a handbook in usual sense of word. Although many of chapters present illustrative case histories, authors frequently describe controversies rather than focusing on current best practices. While this makes for an extremely interesting book, I suspect many busy clinicians who are looking for a protocol to follow when assessing and treating a patient with a complaint will find this book frustrating. …
