The cradle of erotica, a study of Afro-Asian sexual expression and an analysis of erotic freedom in social relationships,

This is the first definitive examination of African and Asian sexual behavior. It scrutinizes the erotic practices of peoples whose behavior is unknown to all but a few Western scholars. This volume describes in detail the whole range of sexual practices: those most common as well as the orgiastic rites of strange cults, the prevalence of Eastern bisexuality, sado-masochism, sexual fatalism and many other exotic subjects hitherto known only to Afro-Oriental specialists.
