It has also captured the attention of the media, where there has been much debate over whether it can truly be described as an addiction.

The handbook considers both individual and group treatment strategies, drawing on a wide range of approaches, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, mindfulness and Twelve Step Programmes. The book studies sex addiction in specific populations including women, adolescents and men who have sex with men. Finally, it considers some of the alternative discourses surrounding the concept of sexual addiction.This is the first comprehensive reference book to bring together global viewpoints on advances in research, theory and practice in one volume.
