Women and Passion

Women and Passion was reviewed by Sue Johanson, CM, RN, host of The Sunday Night Sex Show and Talking Sex on the Oxygen Network:

"Thank you God - we have run out of books on the BIG O. Here is a great read, Women and Passion by M Sara Rosenthal, published by Prentice Hall. I loved it. She explores the reason women choose the partners they do and then the difficulties that this presents for their future. She talks about ripening, when females reach late 30s early 40s and start to come into their own, and the effect on the partnership. Powerful book."
