Get ready to enjoy the most erotic sexual experiences of your life with this portable version of Anne Hooper’s Kama Sutra.  From the author of the Great Sex Guide, celebrated sex therapist Anne Hooper joins contemporary techniques with ancient sexual wisdom. Kama Sutra blends the spice of age-old eroticism with stunning photography and the straightforward instruction of a contemporary sex guide. Based on the classic "Ananga Ranga" and "Perfumed Garden" positions, Hooper draws aside the veil of myth and mystery surrounding tantric sex and shows how to combine sensuality and sex for a loving, fulfilling relationship.

This book contains exquisitely photographed images of each positon, along with vivid, easily approachable instructions. Interspersed between the techniques are sensuous nuggets of wisdom from Vātsyāyana, who wrote the fabled manuscript thousands of years ago, along with expert modern commentary. With over a 100 positions, countless variations, and eye-popping photography, Hooper’s ultimate guide to pleasure is sure to satisfy modern lovers, from shy beginners to experienced adventurers, and everybody in between.

One might think a former Penthouse Forum magazine editor would be in over her head when it came to interpreting the sacred Kama Sutra for contemporary lovers. Surprisingly, Anne Hooper has grasped the subtle, but perhaps more important, messages of India's traditional love manuals. She discourages readers from focusing on straining to achieve the more distorted poses as if they were athletic feats. Instead, she has written a compelling commentary that encourages readers to emphasize pressure points, manners, artistic freedom and, most of all, finding and pursuing a loving sexual relationship rather than an overly choreographed one. Almost every page is illustrated with tasteful photos of nude lovers demonstrating the many sacred positions, while Hooper's text offers suggestions on how to apply the ancient teachings to contemporary lovemaking. --Gail Hudson
