"A book of intrinsic and alltruistic value for those eager to explore the mysteries of the ancient Indian culture, and their comprehension of sexuality. The book is structured as a textbook, giving tips not only on love-making, but also on the complex social interactions crucial to the prople of India of that time. As such, it gives us a glimpse into a world long forsaken by Christian mentality, offering things we've forgotten long ago, things which still have great value, and such things in which the ancient cultures were significantly more profficient at. Do not hesitate. Delve into a whole new world..."

    " Page 82 was, well, interesting. Read this dog-eared book when I borrowed it from my father, and just for giggles read it again ... Well, tried to. Too much gymnastics for my taste at my age. "

    " I can't believe it took me so long to remember this one. Didn't everyone in the 50's & 60's read this? I mainly remember the part about how to enlarge the ole lingum. No idea what edition I had and the date read is a guess. "

    " I admit, I was sort of hoping it would be spicier even as I reminded myself that Kama Sutra is actually a book of cultural and historical significance. This version should be read from that standpoint. "
