   A wonderful blending of memoir,
    journalism and research, it's all
    about women's hidden motiva-
    tions and secret expectations,
    post-surgery sexuality, amorous 
    feelings toward their plastic sur-
    geons, ambivalences, mispercep-  
    tions and more. But most impor- 
    tantly, it's about how Cosmetic
    Surgery impacts women's lives.

    "Given the relationship between sexuality, body
     image and cosmetic surgery, it is not surprising
     that some women report becoming romantically
     attached to their surgeons. Stern does readers
     a great favor in examining this 'don't ask, don't
     tell experience. . . "

     ". . . a must read for any woman who has
    had or is contemplating plastic surgery.
    She has compiled hundreds of interviews
    with women about the dramatic changes
    they have seen in their lives following
    surgery. The most incredible after-effect
    is the one least talked about: a remarkable
    increase in a woman's libido and sexual
    pleasure . . ."
