This review is from: Kama Sutra of Sexual Positions: The Tantric Art of Love (Paperback)

Celebrating sex as a way to create harmony and joy, Kenneth Ray Stubbs' Kama Sutra of Sexual Positions is a beautifully designed, artistic manual interspersed with historical and cultural perspectives. The book's colorful images are complemented by poetry, spiritual insights and philosophical material, making for a literate, informative read. But it's the illustrations of ancient lovers and contemporary sex partners showing amazing varieties of lovemaking that are the heart of the Kama Sutra of Sexual Positions. Of all the positive elements of the book, its best are the illustrations of everyday people, making the pleasures of eroticism accessible to all. It's totally refreshing to see sexuality expressed by real men and women instead of surgically enhanced porn stars.

2.0 out of 5 stars Kama Sutra of Sexual Positions: The Tantric Art of Love, August 31, 2003

This review is from: Kama Sutra of Sexual Positions (Paperback)

I wish I hadn't ordered it! I have seen soooo many Kama Sutra books that are sooo much better. This book is very small, short, brief. Not very informative. It is a mix of the most basic things that everyone already does and crazy stuff that only a Yoga master could achieve or even want to try to position themselves into achieving... The only thing good about this book are the drawings, some of the art is nothing special, but there is one illustrator who is very excellent. So from an artistic standpoint, if you want to look at pencil drawings of naked, average-looking people having sex... well it is a good source for that and that alone. Don't buy it to learn anything about sex though!

3.0 out of 5 stars snoozer, January 25, 2002

This review is from: Kama Sutra of Sexual Positions: The Tantric Art of Love (Paperback)

Interesting historical information and beautiful imagery...but, no/minimal verbal instructions are given and most positions shown are completely unreasonable to ask of the typical person's body anyway! Geered more toward yoga expert's who are visually-oriented learners. Quite disappointing as an instructional manual and very boring reading.
