Summary

Not since the development of the birth control pill and its tremendous impact on our sexual attitudes and behaviors has there been a cataclysmic event to equal the introduction of Viagra five years ago. Viagra was originally prescribed to provide a simple, safe, and effective oral medication for the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Over 22 million prescriptions for this drug have been written in the US to date, and over 45 million world-wide, swelling annual sales to over a billion dollars. Quickly, moreover, Viagra has become a major recreational drug for men of all ages and occupations, who want to insure their sexual potency without the traditional fear of failure that nearly all men experience at some time in their lives. By examining the stories of broad variety of real people, real situations, real relationships, this book provides insight and education for virtually every individual and relationship in the world.
