Kama Sutra

Said to have been written sometime in the 4th century A.D. the Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana, first translated into English in 1883 is much more than a mere description of exotic sexual practices. It attempts to cover the entire gamut of man/woman relationships, from furnishing one's house to seducing other men's wives. This selection is from this authoritative translation, vividly interspersed with beautiful photographs from museums and private collections.
