Synopsis
A striking feature of the ancient arts in India was their candid celebration of sexuality. The sacred and profane are a continuum in which spiritual and sensual values are integrated. This book is much more than a mere description of exotic sexual practices. It attempts to cover the entire gamut of man/woman relationships, from furnishing one's house to seducing other men's wives. The present selection is from this authoritative translation, vividly interspersed with beautiful photographs from museums and private collections.
