Kathleen McKinney, Susan Sprecher
"The contributors are to be applauded for their efforts to examine
a broad range of sexual phenomena within the context of many
different relationships (e.g., premarital, marital, extradyadic,
adolescent, adult, heterosexual, homosexual, etc.) and
interpersonal phenomena (e.g., love, jealousy, communication,
etc.)....Sexuality in Close Relationships (1991) represents the
kind of quality material I have learned to expect from both the
editors and contributing authors, and is a valuable and necessary
addition to any researcher's bookshelf."
—International Society for the Study of Personal Relationship
Bulletin"...This is an interesting and valuable book for either
pedagogical or personal use....I liked this book. It is a real
contribution to the study of both close relationships and human
sexuality. It is well edited, interdisciplinary, and provocative.
Few authors achieve this much."
—Contemporary Psychology"... the volume ... has considerable value
as a resource."
—Science and Technology"...a well-written scholarly and practical
book....The authors provide a wonderful mixture of wisdom about
love relationships, a scholarly review of the existing research,
and a tough standard for research. Researchers will find it a
valuable encyclopedia of the research on this topic."
—Archives of Sexual Behavior"It is a valuable source of information
for teachers, researchers, and clinicians working in the areas of
human sexuality and/or close relationships."
—The Midwest Book Review
