The Power of Sexual Surrender

In this insightful work, a psychiatrist confronts a problem that still touches many married women: the experience of sexual frigidity. Drawing on clinical observations and recent scientific findings, the author explains how this condition reflects deeper emotional and unconscious conflicts that can strain marriages and family life. The opening chapters lay out the extent of the issue, why it has long been shrouded in silence, and what misconceptions have kept women from finding help.

The book also places the problem in a broader cultural shift, tracing how attitudes toward female sexuality have changed from Victorian restraint to the more open outlook of the mid‑twentieth century. By combining historical perspective with practical advice, it offers readers a clear roadmap for understanding their own responses and for beginning the process of sexual surrender. Readers will come away with a sense that, despite past hardships, relief and renewed intimacy are within reach.
