Review
"What distinguishes the couple's efforts from the plethora of books on the subject of Eastern eroticism are their depth of research and their breadth of presentation. Opulent cocktailable sexbiggies." (The Village Voice)
"Monumentally researched, comprehensively detailed, and profusely illustrated. . . . Sexual Secrets is a timely, well-rounded masterpiece. This reviewer's reaction can be summed up in two words: BUY IT!" (Yoga Journal)
"For twenty years Sexual Secrets has been the spiritual person's guide to celestial copulation. Flesh meets faith inside this book and each is the better for it." (ForeWord)
"The book touches on every aspect of sacred sexuality that you could imagine and even those you might not. If you want to find the key to understanding the 'alchemy of ecstasy,' Sexual Secrets is definitely the place to look." (Healing Retreats & Spas)
"For twenty years Sexual Secrets has been the spiritual person's guide to celestial copulation. Flesh meets faith inside this book and each is the better for it." (ForeWord, October 1999)
"A remarkably complete book stocked with the knowledge of esoteric Asian traditions never before seen by Western eyes." (The Village Voice)
"A massive compendium, furnishing just about everything you always wanted to know." (The Book Reader)
"An intriguingly illustrated, thoroughly researched collage designed to enhance sexual consciousness." (New Age Magazine)
"Sexual Secrets gathers together the best parts from several different traditions of erotic lore." (Sheela Ardrian, New Witch, Autumn 2002)
