Esta obra fundamental de Helen Singer Kaplan aborda uno de los temas más frecuentes y complejos en la terapia de pareja: la ausencia o inhibición del deseo sexual. A través de un análisis profundo, la autora explora las causas psicológicas subyacentes, tales como el miedo a la intimidad, la depresión y diversas fobias sexuales, demostrando cómo estos trastornos afectan la comunicación y el vínculo afectivo. El libro incluye el estudio de veintiséis casos clínicos detallados, mediante los cuales Kaplan ilustra la aplicación de técnicas terapéuticas eficaces. Es una guía esencial tanto para profesionales de la salud mental como para personas interesadas en comprender las dinámicas de la sexología y las relaciones humanas desde una perspectiva clínica y práctica.

Helen Singer Kaplan was an Austrian-American sex therapist and the founder of the first clinic in the United States for sexual disorders established at a medical school. The New York Times described Kaplan as someone who was "considered a leader among scientific-oriented sex therapists. She was noted for her efforts to combine some of the insights and techniques of psychoanalysis with behavioral methods." She was also dubbed the "Sex Queen" because of her role as a pioneer in sex therapy during the sexual revolution in 1960s America, and because of her advocacy of the idea that people should enjoy sexual activity as much as possible, as opposed to seeing it as something dirty or harmful. The main purpose of her dissertation is to evaluate the psychosexual dysfunctions because these syndromes are among the most prevalent, worrying and distressing medical complaints of modern times.
