This book is easy to read. It teaches you the basic concept of the ancient chinese tao of loving. Will give you a shift in your own western beliefs about sex. It will be clear to you why non knowledge of the tao of loving can be harmful to your health, happiness and sanity.
However there are deeper practices & secret methods in the tao of sex that chang did not cover. But those theories & practices are usually too complex and too long to be described in such an elegant & not that thick book like this one. For the deeper practices, you may read Mantak Chia's book which are great & detail- of course he's a Taoist master too.
This book is excellent for those who are not yet familiar with the concepts of the tao of sex/loving. I think it will definitely give you a mind shift about sex. Since u are gonna do it, why not study it & do it well?

Although the text is oriented toward a man learning to relax and control his own body and to enjoy more intimately the act of making love to a woman, it is highly recommended for women to read as well. This book will explain the kind of patience and help a woman can provide for her "quick" or inexperienced lover. Readers beware: There's no mojo in this method! Dr. Chang eloquently reveals hard-boiled techniques that are tried and true. There's no guarantee necessary here. With Dr. Chang, good loving is a fact!

I found it ok to give the reader an idea of the Tao of love and sex on a physical level, but not much in regards to how the Tao can be used for a higher spiritual purpose. The book seems to entirely focus on how to keep a woman sexually satisfied and how a person practicing the Tao can have much better health and increase lifespan. The book doesn't give much information about from a womans perspective but mainly from a male perspective and how physically beneficial it is for men. The book makes the assumption that woman are not sexually satisfied unless they have lots of orgasms, and the focus for the male is to retain the seed and engage his partner is lustful sex. The book mentions the use of a locking method to help a male from ejaculating but doesn't give specifics on how to actually do it and how to practice it (unlike Mantak Chia - cultivating male sexual energy). I found Mantak Chia books better in showing how the Tao is used as a spiritual path and also lots of practices to buildup and maintain sexual energy and other practical topics such as external lock, internal lock, sacrum and cranial pumps, power lock, etc.

Jolan Chang's and the chinese vision of love is a truly beautiful thing to behold.

The simple idea in this book, which is so difficult to achieve, is the concentration on the making of love and your partner rather than the big-o attached.

I've found that by taking the O out of the picture and focusing my attention on the pleasure of my lover's body it makes the whole experience enter another realm. Just the feelings that I get now from the touch of her skin dwarf the feeling of the big-O that I used to get.

If you truly think making love with your partner suits you and think he or she would enjoy being able to go for hours, then definitely look into this book!

If you follow the instructions in this book, you will never need anymore "sexpert's" advice, nor will you ever even consider taking "Viagra".

Jolan Chang, a chinese living in Stockholm, Sweden, gives a profound introduction into the ancient chinese philosophy of taoism and from this philosophy he derives a new way of looking at both love, making love and having sex.

He teaches, that the western way of "chasing" orgasm is unhealthy and contradicts the laws of nature, since "exaggerated" ejaculation can have some negative impact on males' well-being and health. According to Chang, "coerced" ejaculation is the most wide-spread cause of impotence. He says, that, instead of trying to reach an orgasm by any means, you should rather try to enjoy hour-lasting extasy with your partner,when you are sexually united with him or her, and that this will have an incredible positive effect on both your physical an mental health, and you will feel much better than after any orgasm. Furthermore this way of making love would reconcile man woman and end the "gender-war", since through taoism the woman will finally get the amount of love, care and physical satisfaction she needs, and the man is no longer forced to "prove" he is a "real man", since his fear of "failing" is taken away from him. Also no woman will any longer regard herself as "frigid", when she realizes that sexual satisfaction does not necessarily go along with an orgasm. It is to be well-noticed, that these ideas were developed in ancient China 500 B.C. !

Just follow the instructions of this book and enjoy!

This is a must read book for anyone involved in a relationship with a women they care about deeply.... It has provided me with a much healthier attitude (both physically & mentally) towards sex, and I need only to assert that it is a wonderful book to share with your partner. Furthermore, I feel truly blessed that I have discovered this knowledge at an early age.

After having been married for 20 years and a few boyfriends since then, I refuse to begin a relationship with a man unless he practices the Tao of love and sex. So many relationships could be saved if a man knows to control his emissions and experience increased stamina and pleasure. If you did not think that sex could keep a relationship going (as it was intended) then you are not practicing it the Tao way. This would cure most of society's problems with promiscuity, casual sex, one-night stands, affairs and divorces.

It usually takes me close to 1 week to read a book. This took me one day. I enjoyed this book and found it practical. By reserving the big "O" I certainly feel different the following day(s) and our encounters are more frequent. Thank you Mr. Chang

Interesting perspective of Love. This book although a little short provides the reader an enticing overview on the practice of the Tao of Love. It provides the reader a medium in depth history of Tao in the essence of Loving Making. The bottom line is that A woman's Needs and sexual satisfaction go beyond the skill and technique of a man's ability to perform. Technique and skill is nothing without warmth and the awareness to live in the moment of ectasy is the heart of expression between two lovers. This book offers you the lover to become an artist in the Art of Love making. The presence of mind, the variation of strokes and thrust is just a small taste of the world of Tao of Love and Sex.

This is one of the greatest books ever written. It is on my most recommended list as it helps human relate to one another is a sensible way and not like the make believe Hollywood and lest than forthright productions out there. This is the only book that I have read, that after applying the practices, my lover asked me if I had an implant, which lead to the biggest smile when I answered no. I felt like I had a big S on my chest from then on and even today.
