Overview
Men not interested in sex Can this really be true It is for the estimated 20 million American men and women who are in relationships in which the man has stopped being sexually intimate. This breakthrough book reveals the counterintuitive truth: Many men are just not up for it anymore. To find out why, bestselling author and relationship expert Dr. Bob Berkowitz and his wife, Susan Yager-Berkowitz, began an unprecedented survey of more than 4,000 men and women in this situation, gathering data and following up with hundreds of interviews with selected respondents. Why don't these men want to have sex Is the problem physical, emotional, or psychological-or are these guys simply bored with their partners Is it unexpressed anger about other aspects of their relationships Are they depressed Now that there is limitless access to pornography, are some men no longer able to be turned on without it Are they becoming satiated Do they have a fully functioning libido, just not for their wives Or is decreased interest in sex just an unacknowledged but natural fact of life for a lot of men Do they want their libidos back Further, how do their partners feel about this Are they dejected or relieved Do they suspect infidelity, asexuality or homosexuality, or just blame themselves What are they doing about it What can they do He's Just Not Up for It Anymore provides a unique window into the sexless man's mind-so that men and women can understand this important issue and begin to address the problems that have inhibited intimacy, and ultimately solve them.

Reviews
A book that millions of men could benefit from . . . this really could be the Last Taboo. . . the real point here, the Berkowitzes say, isn't casting blame on anyone. It's understanding the issues and jump-starting all these stalled libidos. -- New York Newsday
