The Power of Sexual Surrender
by Marie N. RobinsonThe Power of Sexual Surrender, first published in 1959, is a classic guide to female sexuality and the treatment of frigidity. Author Marie Robinson M.D., a Cornell educated psychiatrist, devoted her New York City practice to the treatment of frigidity, and this book is a result of her work with hundreds of women seeking better sex lives and happier relationships.

One reviewer called the book “the sanest work on feminine psychology ever written.”
