Purchase Wired for Intimacy: How Pornography Hijacks the Male Brain


I bought the kindle version of this book. I was hoping to find helpful information that would assist me in understanding someone I know who is addicted to porn. However, this book is overly clinical (with numerous citations throughout the book) and seems aimed more at a therapist or counselor than a lay person. The book is not so much about porn as it is about male brokenness. The chapters on porn are short and point out the obvious. This book would have been more helpful with stories of individuals who were addicted to porn and recovered. This book could also benefit others if it had a chapter on how to live with/deal with/help someone addicted to porn. It's a very dry read; perhaps this was just an expansion of a journal paper? Kindle comments: the tables and copyright page are impossible to read (very tiny) on a Kindle 2. There is misplaced hyphenation and extra spaces between words. I also noticed some grammar and typographical errors, but that is not the Kindle's fault.Get more detail about Wired for Intimacy: How Pornography Hijacks the Male Brain.
