Critic reviews

"Frank, forthright, and at times hysterically funny." -Cosmopolitan UK

"Tracey Cox is stunningly well informed about sex. She can tell a G-spot from an A-spot and could probably find both of them before the rest of us have got the map references." -The Mirror

"What distinguishes her from other so-called sexperts is an ability to talk with candor and a sense of empathy. . . . This is the heart of her appeal, the ability to talk about sex in a universal way." -The London Times

"Great Sex Starts at 50 is perhaps Tracey Cox's most intimate book to date. After 20 years answering sex questions from people all over the world, she knows the questions everyone is wondering about ("Is something wrong with my libido, or am I just bored?") and answers them all with her trademark sanity and compassion. Hoping to keep having great sex for the rest of your life? Be sure to keep this book next to your bed." -Stephen Snyder, MD, author of Love Worth Making: How to Have Ridiculously Great Sex in a Long-Lasting Relationship

"Great Sex Starts at 50 upends the notion that people over a certain age have lost all interest in sex. Cox. offers readers research, suggests techniques, and collects personal anecdotes aimed at helping women-she interviewed hundreds of them, ages 45 to 80-reinvigorate or reaffirm their sexual desires.. Both practical and explicit." -Publishers Weekly

"Cox is fantastically unshockable. She has the practical, unsqueamish air of a doctor without the white coat." -The Observer

Transformative

I picked up this book because...you guessed it...I recently hit 50. I love doing research on how to make my health and life in general, better. This book gave me insight into things I've thought about, but didn't research further.

Valuable information for 50 somethings

I highly recommend this book to anyone between the ages of 30 and 90, as Tracey's wisdom offers a roadmap for navigating the complexities of sex after 50 and also things to be aware of in the future for younger people.

Helpful!

Very practical discussion of a variety of subjects. The information was helpfful in a down to earth easy to understand. non-intimidating andI found this informative.

Fatphobia has ruined an otherwise useful book

This book is very well collated, well read, and contains some excellent and empowering information. However, the frequent dismissal of obesity as a real problem, the lack of an informed perspective on body positivity for obese individuals, and (in Ch 4 I believe) the blunt statement that obesity is a simple result of gluttony and laziness, has left a sour taste for me. I expect a more nuanced work from scholars who are writing about intimate topics.
I am unable to recommend this book to any of my colleagues or friends.
