Although sexuality is an integral part of close romantic
relationships, research linking these two constructs has been less
systematic than other areas pertaining to close relationships. To
date, researchers in communication, sociology, family studies,
psychology, and psychiatry, have made significant advances in both
of these fields. The editors' goal is to integrate this research
into one volume. They bring together major scholars from the
diversity of fields working on close relationship topics to examine
past contributions and new directions in sexuality. The emphasis is
on theoretical integration and stimulation, methodological rigor,
and critical analysis. This volume explores: *early sexual
experiences and their impact on late life sexuality; *how life's
stresses impact sexuality and satisfaction with closeness; *the
affect of postpartum depression on sexuality; and *the relationship
between control, power, anger, as well as revenge and sexual
processes in couples. The Handbook of Sexuality in Close
Relationships is intended for students and researchers in the
disciplines of social, clinical, developmental, and health
psychology; family studies; counseling; and interpersonal, family,
and health communication. An excellent reference in advanced
courses in close relationships taught in psychology,
communications, sociology, anthropology, and family studies, the
material in Part V will also appeal to clinical psychologists,
health professionals, and policymakers.
