From the Back Cover
The 'Kama Sutra' is the all-time classic guide to the art and skills of sex and love. It teaches that love should be an ecstatic experience, but sexual happiness is only likely if both partners have a good understanding of sexual behaviour.
The 'Kama Sutra' has a practical wisdom and appeal that remains undiminished over time. Although it was written in the third century, its observations are still fresh, fascinating, honest and relevant today as ever.
Discover the 'Kama Sutra's' thoughts...
· On the characteristics of men and women, and the reason why women reject the addresses of men
· About men who have success with women, and about women who are easily gained over
· On sexual union, embracing, kissing, biting, congress and love quarrels
· On the means of exciting desire
This is a new edition of the Richard Burton classic translation.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st BookClub Assosiates. Hardback. Introduction by K. M. Panikkar. This book, a Sanskrit book of about the third century, has for long been honoured in India as the earliest Indian treatise on the science and art of sex and love. It describes social customs in early India, analyses sexual techniques and comments on the many different situations in which men and women of the day might find themselves involved and how best these should be dealt with. Its purpose is to discover in what ways happiness and enjoyment can be best achieved. While sharing the Indian attitude to love as an ecstatic experience, it assumes that sexual happiness is founded on scientific knowledge and to this end it provides a series of chapters based on the practical experience of sex. In this respect it was a forerunner of the modern marriage guidance book. The Kama Sutra underlies all later Indian writings on love including Sanskirt love poetry and is a classic contribution to Indian culture. The Preface by W. G. Archer discusses the circumstances in which the translation was made, its place in Western studies of Indian culture and the respective roles of Sir Richard Burton and his friend, Forster Fitzgerald Arbuthnot. Sardar K. M. Panikkar explains in his Introduction how the Kama Sutra is valued and appreciated in India. 296 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
