Rating: 4
Summary: Good Introduction
Comment: If you are interested in Kama Sutra, Ananga Ranga or The Perfumed Garden or are not sure which you would like to study, this book is a great starting point. Although all the works are very similiar, this allows you a synopsis of each text and is helpful in determing which or all that you wish to persue further. The illustrations are beautifully done. Not for in-depth reading or review, but more an icebreaker.

Summary: Uncovering the Indian thoughts on sex
Comment: If you are not an oriental person, you will be amazed to see the details. But, as a normal practice of Yoga in India for hundreds of years, illustrations are no more immaterializable. Sex also teches you Yoga and rithmatic breathing through different asanas. Find some from this book. Buy it for a new depth in your attitude towards sex.

Rating: 3
Summary: Beautiful artwork, interesting positions, but impossible
Comment: Of course these positions aren't impossible for a human, but it would take a lifetime of stretching before the woman would be able to get into the positions described and depicted.

Don't buy this book if you are looking for a book filled with different sexual positions to try. If you are looking for a book that presents sexuality as a natural, healthy, fun part of life, this book contains the classics. The pages are filled with large, beautiful prints of paintings and pictures of sculptures showing people in seemingly every possible sexual position (though virtually all of them are impossible to anyone with joints and bones). The text of the three books is abridged, with only a very small fraction of the Kama Sutra reprinted in this book.

If you want a book that treats sexuality as the beautiful and natural part of life that it should still be, then consider buying this book. It has been around for centuries (the Kama Sutra for more than a millenium, if memory serves), and is well worth reading. But if you think you'll learn any practicable techniques, you'll be disappointed.
