A frank, confident guide to the uninhibited pleasures of sex -- for those pushing 50 and those on the far side of it -- that shows how to overcome the common problems mature couples experience and bring fulfillment and intimacy back into any sex life.

The trend-inspiring Baby Boom generation -- 78 million of whom are now crossing the 50-year mark -- are redefining middle age and creating a new realism of what a fulfilling sex life means. As they did in their youth, Boomers will not go quietly into the sexual experiences of their mature years. Sex Over 50 speaks to this legion of gracefully aging Americans who are looking for professional, practical advice on how to make the transition to deeper, richer, more sophisticated sexual relationships. Opening the way to a fuller, more intimate way of being together, Sex Over 50 debunks the myths of the youth-beauty obsession and our stereotypes of sexuality and aging, showing what it takes to be a mature lover and recapture the passion once believed to be the exclusive province of our youth.
