This is the first time that my doubts about a book began when I read the introduction in which he dedicates the book to his wife "who needs no such assistance". The impication for the rest of us is dubious.

Some of the advice offered seems interesting, some of it seems OK and some of it seems outright dangerous. I do not recommend that a man use a vacuum cleaner as a masturbation aid or that he receive oral sex while driving a car. When the author is asked if performing oral sex on a man while driving a car is dangerous he says that that is only true if its the woman who is driving!

This book has something of a hastily-slapped-together quality to it. Actually it appears that the author got "inspired" by "Tricks" author Jay Wiseman and decided to do a very similar book because Wiseman's book wasn't at the time very well distributed and which Peterson seems to be subtly trying to steer the reader away from.

I guess what bothers me about this book is its overall sense of shallowness. I get the feeling that the author doesn't really respect sex (and he works for Playboy! ) and therefore he doesn't really respect his reader. I expected better from the Playboy Advisor.

For good books try The Good Vibrations Guide to Sex, 150 Sex Games for Couples, The Guide to Getting It On and Tricks: More Than 125 Ways To Make Good Sex Better.

After you pick through the sexual suggestions that you could never possibly do, I came up with only a 100. I have to say this though: they are original. The charm of this book is that it isn't written by some doctor who probably never has sex, it's a collection of letters from real people who write Playboy magazine. If you're easily offended easily I wouldn't recommend this book to you. On the other hand if you need a few tips on how to spice up your sex life(and you'll try just about anything)run out to the stores now and grab your own copy.

While the book has some interesting ideas in it, I was appalled at a handful of them, such as #59 (putting an Alka Seltzer in a woman's vagina) and #104 (geting head while driving a car). I would never place a carbonated item inside a woman's vagina, nor would I want to be receiving oral sex while trying to drive! Ideas like these, despite the author's claims to the contrary are plain dangerous.

The comment on one trick that "large-breasted women are more sexually experienced than smaller breasted women" also bothered me. Does the author or the person who came up with that trick know this from personal experience? I certainly haven't found this to be true in my own experiences.

If you're looking for ways to spice up your sex life, there are numerous other books out there to read, like the Sex Toy Tricks series by Jay Wiseman, Bondage On A Budget, or even the Sex for Dummies book.

I'll pass on this one, thank you.

Goo reading material. Adventurous people share their secrets to great seductive and provocative sex. It's a good source book that provides lots of unique little sex tricks. Great book.

After reading the first reviewer, I beg to differ with that person's viewpoint. ESO is a great book that has never enjoyed much critical acclaim and this book talks about techniques from it and recommends it in their very GOOD reading List in the back! I think the reading list alone would make the cost of the book reasonable! In this age of Sex for Dummies and such, it is good to know that an old and trusted friend, confidante, counselour, and even tittilator like Playboy would come up with a tasty buffet of ideas,tips, tricks, skills, techniques, and just fun stuff on the issue of love and sex! Sometimes you just have to go with your instincts and keep an open mind! They also give kudos to the Good Ladies at Good Vibrations! I wonder if the reviewer ever tried any of the suggestions? This is a keeper of a book! -ed saunders-

Lot of great information on sexually issues!

The only really worthwhile information I got from this book was about the coat hangers. The rest of the book is littered with the same self important tripe Playboy is famous for. Anything for another buck. If you want to know how pygmy s use goat eyelashes for sex, or the dozen plus different definitions of Venus butterfly then buy this book. If you actual want to improve your love life try sitting down and TALKING to your partner.

Playboy does not more know about your own sex life than you do.
