In his collected works, pioneering specialist Dr. Patrick Carnes takes us through his research works on sex addiction that have spanned the last thirty years. He focuses on key areas within the addiction, including sex addiction policy, cybersex, gender differences, power dynamics, and recovery. In the conclusion, Carnes offers a call to action on the need for a paradigm shift in addiction medicine and the necessity of a change in the direction psychotherapy has gone. This book will be of use to researchers, clinicans, and students in the field of sex addiction, as well as policy-makers and the recovery community.
