Acknowledgments
In Bed With 10,000 Sexperts
G ood lovin’ is a multidisciplinary pleasure.
As primal and intuitive as sexual intercourse is, on another level it’s
highly complex. Amazing sex and the healthiest of relationships are products of
numerous scientific and academic disciplines: cardiology, exercise physiology,
psychology, psychiatry, urology, nutrition and weight loss, behavioral therapy,
sexology, religion, and more.
Nobody owns the last word on sex.
That’s why Women’s Health and Men’s Health (and our readers) are so
fortunate to be able to tap the brains of the most knowledgeable and influential
experts in each of those fields every month. And we’ve done it for years. The
Big Book of Sex is a result of hundreds of interviews with the most notable
doctors and researchers in the world—as well has many more thousands of hours
spent reviewing reams of scholarly journal articles and studies.
There are many experts to thank for help on this project, but none more so
than our readers—the thousands of men and women who responded to The Big
Book of Sex online survey, and whose attitudes and opinions helped inform these
pages.
We also want to extend our deep appreciation for the help and guidance of
our esteemed Men’s Health and Women’s Health advisory board members
(you’ll find them highlighted in the front of our magazines), and especially those
experts whose research and wisdom features prominently throughout this book,
including:
Jennifer R. Berman, MD, director of The Berman Women’s Wellness Center
in Los Angeles; Laura Berman, PhD, president and director of Chicago’s
Berman Center; Louann Brizendine, MD, professor of clinical psychiatry at the
University of California; evolutionary psychologist David M. Buss, PhD,
coauthor with Cindy M. Meston, PhD, of Why Women Have Sex; anthropologist
Helen Fisher, PhD, research professor, Rutgers University, and scientific advisor
to Chemistry.com; Debbie Herbenick, PhD, associate director of the Center for
Sexual Health Promotion at Indiana University and Men’s Health relationship
advisor; John Gottman, PhD, founder of The Gottman Institute; sexologist Ian
Kerner, PhD; Barry Komisaruk, PhD, adjunct psychology professor at Rutgers
University; Steven Lamm, MD, assistant professor at NYU School of Medicine;
Men’s Health urology advisor Larry I. Lipshultz, MD, chief of the division of
male reproductive medicine at Baylor College of Medicine; Cindy M. Meston,
PhD, director of the Meston Sexual Psychophysiology Laboratory at University
of Texas at Austin; Ridwan Shabsigh, MD, president of the International Society
of Men’s Health; Beverly Whipple, PhD, renowned sex researcher and professor
emeritus, Rutgers University.
