Countering Masters and Johnson

The just-released Masters/Johnson/Robert Kolodny book “Crisis” is a great disservice to us all. Its professed study of a mere 800-member heterosexual group is an appalling book-marketing campaign posturing as scientific research.

It plays on the public’s worst fears, fostering ever greater doubt and suspicion, and generating even more harm toward innocent men, women and children, too many of whom we have seen victimized already.

This book is nothing more than a greedy and vile commercial effort by the authors to line their pockets at the expense of dedicated research physicians and selfless scientists in many fields the world over, who are joined in a common goal to lick this dread disease.
