I am becoming increasingly convinced as I have taught human sexuality and pursued a special interest in the issue of homosexuality for over twenty years that identity is the key to understanding and addressing the experience of same-sex attraction. The work of Mark Yarhouse and Erica Tan has provided significant support to and affirmation of personal identity as central to the understanding of and effective work with same-sex issues, both in research and clinical practice. Everyone seriously interested in a sound and balanced approach to same-sex issues needs to read this book carefully.
