Product Description:
What is your best tool for achieving the ultimate sexual pleasure? Your brain!
Everyone wants to know how to improve his or her love life, but so few of us understand the integral role the brain plays in getting us in the mood, keeping us excited about our partner, and helping us achieve greater satisfaction. Based on Dr. Daniel Amen’s cutting-edge research in practical neuroscience, Sex on the Brain shares twelve lessons that help you enhance your love and sex lives through understanding and improving brain function. Filled with practical suggestions and information on how to have better sex, Sex on the Brain reveals:
• How the differences between men’s and women’s brains affect our perceptions and interest in sex
• The science behind why breakups hurt so much, and what you can do to ease the pain
• Surefire techniques to fix common problems–depression, PMS, ADD–that get in the way of good sex
• How to tap into your senses–taste, touch, smell–and find “the spot”
• How sex can save your life
Sex on the Brain explains everything there is to know about the brain in love and lust, and shows you how to create a hot, healthy, and happy sex life.

The book reads well and easy. What he has done is brought together new information and blended it well with information that has been available in a practical format. I recommend it and alsoSex and the Perfect Lover: Tao, Tantra, and the Kama Sutra

It is common knowledge, at least among sex academics, that our primary sex organ is the brain. We are stimulated by our senses, but it is interpreted by our brains. This book is an excellent text regarding what happens in our heads before, during and after we have sexual relations. I found it to be accessible, even though I am not an expert. Sometimes, however, when we as humans engage in sex with someone else, we endeavor to turn off our brains. Of course, that is impossible to do completely, but over-thinking can kill a romantic encounter. If you would like a book that takes both aspects into account, but places more emphasis on the physical aspects of sex between partners, try The Sensuous Couple's (Flip Over) Guide to Seismic Oral Sex. This is a sex instruction manual that will be the saviour of your love life.

Daniel Amen combines knowledge from over 30,000 SPECT (Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomography) scans that allow him to see the Real Time, qualitative and quantitative brain function; with his superb insights into Human Behavior.
He presents a detailed view of Brain Function every step of the way from Gender Personality Differences, Attraction, Lust, Coupling, and Cohabitation, to breakups and loss of a loved one.
If Freud were alive today, he might well be working at one of Amen's clinics. For the very first time in the History of Psychiatry, Investigators in the field are able to define and measure the Biological Underpinnings of Human Behavior. In addition to giving a good portrayal of our sexual existence, Dr. Amen presents some very useful interventions to improve this facet of our lives.
The CD was in WP3 format which was something of a problem to translate, but its contents filled about 6 regular audio CDs. Having spent 33 years attempting a synthesis of Mind and Brain, I found this to be a truly excellent book about a topic that always holds interest, and it is well worth the money.

This is a nice read, with a good blend of humor, research on the brain and hormones in our body, and the doctor's professional and personal experiences w/ others. Amen does a good job delivering his, and others', brain research, in a way anyone can understand. He is, however, a bit old-fashioned in his views on evolutionary thinking and gender stereotypes. There is also the occasional slip up on sex info., e.g., the claim that self-pleasuring can lead to excessive or addictive activity in vulnerable people. It's a pleasant read, however, if your main aim is to learn about the brain's role in passionate desire, attraction, and love.
Rated by buyers -
Not too much new but very thorough. Brain chemicals seem to be what causes attraction. And we thought we were picking our partners. Mother Nature is the real decider.
