Great Gag gift

Don't confuse this version with the complete book. This is a tiny book 3" by 3" or something. Has a few details that's in the complete book. It's a cute gag-gift.

Excellent book

Kindly written, informative, comprehensive, neutral, useful. Everyone should own a copy of this book. Even the "experts"!

An Excellent Book on how to maintain Healhty Sexuality!

Ruth Westheimer has helped pioneer media psychology as a psychosexual therapist. Her book covers a wide array of topics on sex from the basics to maintaining healthy sexuality. The book is well written, non-judgmental, easy to read and informative. The Re-Discovery of Common Sense: A Guide to: The Lost Art of Critical Thinking

Come on it is Dr. Ruth, what more do you need to know!

Excellent, down to eath, reasonable, rational, intelligent. You can't go wrong. Great resource for parents and older teens alike. Yep, purchased it to make sure I was giving my teen accurate info and had no problem giving him the book to read on his own. I highly recommend it. Easy and enjoyable to read. Good advice on teaching kids as well as anything else you might want to know.

For Dummies Dosn't Mean Dumb, Inexperienced Perhaps

Who better to write a book with a title like this one. It's not intended to be a guide to the married couple, but for a guide to the pre-sexual youngster it's wonderful. Most (if not all) of us start out quite mystified by the other gender. (And in a lot of ways that never changes.) Most of us then stumble our way through the whole dating process, the first introductions to sex with a lot of hear-say information. Finally, here's a book, not for dumb people, but for people who just don't have the knowledge they need quite yet. Highly recommended.
