The author examines the psychological forces that contribute to sexual excitement in men and women. He looks at sexual aberrations to learn what they can tell us about "normal" sexual development and finds that in perversion hostility is directed, either in reality or fantasy, toward one's sex object. Through case studies and other provocative examples, Dr. Stoller shows how childhood frustrations and conflicts are hidden within fantasies to generate sexual excitement. Whether in the form of pornography, daydreams, or ritualized sex practices, childhood traumas are transformed into triumphs thereby making the victim the victor. [from the back cover]
