Query: Useful, but one-sided

This is not a bad resource for people interested in the subject, because it provides a good -- though very biased - review of the arguments used by those who oppose therapies aimed at helping people who are not comfortable and do not want to become comfortable with their homosexual attractions. Unfortunately, they ignore any researchers, therapists, or clients who support or see benefit in these therapies, while giving the impression that their work is actually a comprehensive treatment of the subject.At the least, I would recommend searching the NARTH website for the names of some of the editors or contributors to this book, to see what scientists and clinicians on the "other side" have to say about their work.There is a need for a more balanced book on the subject, that fairly covers all sides of the issue, but of course everyone is more intent on promoting their own sociopolitical stance.
