Deep Sex : Exploring Intimate and Transcendent Sexual Experiences

With this book, readers can examine the transcendent aspects of deep sexual experiences, uncovering ways to achieve deeper forms of sexuality and intimacy. To date, there has been far too little serious attention directed to the psychological, cultural, and spiritual dimensions of human sexual experience.

Deep Sex: Exploring Intimate and Transcendent Sexual Experiences remedies that omission by providing an analysis of those dimensions of sexual experiences that most researchers have largely ignored. Utilizing responses to their Psychological Dimensions of Sexual Experience Inventory, the authors explore the various components of satisfying, even electrifying, sexual experiences among men and woman.

Unlike many earlier studies of sexuality and sexual experience, this book examines the roles played by love, passion, commitment, and intimacy in reaching deep levels of sexual experience.

It also covers the impact of such factors as attention, mood, space, time, memory, and interpersonal experiences. * Firsthand accounts of transcendent sexual experiences* An abbreviated copy of the authors' Psychological Dimensions of Sexual Experience Inventory
