A title in the publisher's quaint genre that borders on quackery as it proffers matters of prurient interest under the guise of medical science. Exploitative? Sensational? Both!

With chapters on "The Act of Coitus," "Frigidity in Women," "Sex Desire in Women," "Sexual Misconceptions," etc. A bright copy with dust jacket now enclosed in a removable, clear archival sleeve.
