Kurzbeschreibung
Translated by Sir Richard Burton.
Synopsis
The 1964 publication of Sir Richard Burton's translation of the "Kama Sutra" was celebrated as a literary event of the highest importance. As vital to an understanding of ancient Indian civilisation as the works of Plato and Aristotle are to the West, the "Kama Sutra" has endured for 1,700 years as an indisputable classic of world literature. Written with frankness and unassuming candour, the "Kama Sutra" remains one of the most readable of all the classics of antiquity. A work of philosophy, psychology, sociology, Hindu dogma, scientific inquiry and sexology, it is an indispensable key to understanding Indian culture.

Do not buy this book if you expect interesting pictures to try certain things at home. There are none. It rather explains the kama sutra and its techniques. And it might be a good start to read one of the bigger books. Besides that its price is fair. After reading the kama sutra you will have a good topic to talk about at partys

After reading this book for a week, I came to have an inherent dislike in the concepts taught. I believe that the book is thought out and written by a bunch of male chauvinists.
In the chapter of 'On certain forms of marriage' in the section of 'On the acquisition of a wife', it is stated that a man should obtain a girl by means of disparaging the man the girl was supposed to be married to in the mind of the girl's mother. The man who liked a girl should intoxicate her and after that, take her to a secure place and enjoy her. This is disgusting.
Then it goes on to talk about women resorting to prostitution and the various ways in which a courtesan could gain wealth from men.
Perhaps I was being ignorant about the culture of those days and the society in which they lived in but I believe that it is not much different than it is in this present society.
From the point of a woman, there are a lot of things that I do not agree with morally.
I guess the most enjoyable part of this book is perhaps the description of various possible formats of sexual intercourse.
In conclusion, every individual has their own definition of Kama Sutra. One does not need to consult manuals like this to improve love life. As long as partners understand each other, love each other with all his/her heart and have concern for each other's welfare, then they can enjoy their long voyage satisfying each other's desire.
