Publisher's Summary

Revised and updated in December 2017.

When high speed Internet became widely available a few years ago, growing numbers of people began to worry that their porn use was running out of control. Far from preparing them for fulfilling relationships, viewing an endless stream of porn videos led to unexpected symptoms. Perhaps most surprisingly, for the first time in history erectile dysfunction was becoming a significant problem for young men. This led to one of the largest informal experiments in the history of science. Tens of thousands of people have tried abstaining from sexually stimulating material in a process they call "rebooting." Many of them reported startling changes, from improved concentration and elevated mood to a greater capacity for real-life intimacy.

Gary Wilson has listened to the stories of those who have tried giving up Internet porn and related them to an account of how the reward system of the brain interacts with its environment. And now a growing body of research in neuroscience is confirming what these pioneers have discovered for themselves - Internet pornography can be seriously addictive and damaging.

In Your Brain on Porn Wilson provides a concise introduction to the phenomenon of Internet porn addiction that draws on both first-person accounts and the findings of cognitive neuroscience. In a voice that is generous and humane, he also offers advice for those who want to stop using Internet pornography. The publication of Your Brain on Porn is a landmark in our attempts to understand, and remain balanced in, a world where addiction is big business.

It's a good book but not what you'd expect.

I didn't like the book as much, it's not a self help book that tells you what to do and it's not non-fiction book that is solely based on solid scientific principles. It's somewhere in between.

It's not worth the time reading into unless your sole purpose is to know more about the subject, as I didn't find much practical value for me. (The knowledge is valueable in it's own merit but not enough to have any real impact atleast for me)

It is educating

The narrator often says few quit porn so they can be happy with their beautyful girl friend. Many testimonials read seemed exaggerating.

First place, in what world a guy with beautiful girl friend seek porn?

only one thing true, quitting porn increase overall health.

A collection of facts and testimonials.

Warning: This book is really graphic.

This book is really good if you want to look for a list of motivating testimonials and scientific facts.
