The greatest sexual pleasure in a person's lifetime is possible in one's middle and later years, asserts Dr. David Schnarch, when a mature sense of self has been achieved and genuine intimacy is possible with another person. At his Family Health Center in Colorado Dr. Schnarch works with couples in long-term committed relationships who want to get emotionally and sexually closer. In Passionate Marriage Dr. Schnarch shares what he has learned about how couples can--and must--simultaneously break through the sexual and the emotional blocks that hold them back from total satisfaction. He counsels that every sexual exchange, from kissing to daring erotic behaviors, is a picture of an entire relationship--a reflection of how you and your partner feel about yourselves and each other outside the bedroom. This respectful, erotic, uplifting, and spiritual guide to sexual and emotional fulfillment makes a passionate marriage within the reach of every couple.

The best book on relationships I have ever read. It changed my life & my relationship and has stayed by my bed for years. Both my partner & I found this to be the book that changed our lives- I hope it can change yours too.
As a graduate student in psychology this was required reading for one of my classes. This book is nothing short of exquisite. Schnarch writes from a very authentic 'been there' place which draws the reader in like magnet. Lots of very good case studies which beautifully integrate the theoretical material. Schnarch's lense is a new and refreshing integration of couples & sex therapy (who ever thought of separating the two anyway??). It focuses on differentiation rather than fusion. This is a page-turner that organically induces self-reflection inspired by the very authenticity of it's author.
A fascinating piece of literature.
phwoar. a great read. both my husband and i read this book. what a way to pick ur sex life up off the ground. a tastefully erotic book that will help you get a healthier happier marriage that lasts. if your going through some rough times with your realitionship give this one a go!
This book can be confronting at times, so proceed slowly and give yourself time to reflect on what you read. It's one of the best books about marriage and relationships around, particularly for over-35s. Scharch is always supportive, but challenges you rethink many of your assumptions about sexuality in long-term relationships.
i've got to admit, i was abit hesatent when my mother in law gave me this book as a gift, but looking back, i couldn't appreciate the present more! i can't describe how much my life in the bedroom has changed, from disaster to delightfully rewarding all within a month, i would have thought impossible!
