John Stevens
Here is a survey, through art from around the world, of the sacred dimension of sexuality. It demonstrates beyond a doubt that the notion of sexual relationships as something honorable, nonpossessive, fulfilling, and beneficial is nothing new, nor is the idea limited to the traditions of the mystic East. John Stevens shows how world sexual traditions have always had the spiritual as their highest goal. His survey looks at art from China, India, Native American traditions, ancient Europe, Japan, the South Pacific, Southeast Asia, Tibet, Greece, Africa, and Mexico, as well as art by modern artists from Eric Gill to John Lennon.

For those men today who feel they lack a sense of sacred identity, Klein has provided a framework for ritual and self-examination as a means to reclaiming their sacred self.

Will Roscoe (editor)
Joining a reclaimed past to a vibrant present, this work provides a broad view of male and female homosexuality in Native American cultural history through anthropological reports, biography, mission records, photographs, oral literature, diaries, interviews, essays, autobiographical excerpts, poems, and selections from novels. In the past, individuals whose behavior varied from tribal norms could adopt a variety of honorable roles: healer, artist, mediator, shaman. But homophobia saturates the modern Indian world. Contemporary voices (notably Roscoe, Beth Brant, Paula Gunn Allen, Maurice Kenny, and Chrystos) explain and dramatize survival despite chronic and ritualized oppression. Includes contacts, resources, a list of tribes, and a detailed bibliography

With penetrating insights into the nature of touch and straightforward advice on its enhancement of the pleasures in lovemaking, this attractive and comprehensive guide from the bestselling author of The Art of Sensual Loving enables partners to scale the heights of sensual intimacy. As Dr. Stanway shows, touch is a powerful stimulant that can be used to achieve more exciting and more satisfying lovemaking.

Indeed, touch both inspires and expresses intimacy. By discovering the secrets of loving touch and by incorporating them into a healthy, active love life, partners in a sexual relationship can heighten their physical pleasure at the same time that they realize new and exciting aspects of their sensual natures. From the messages in body language to uninhibited sexual satisfaction, from precautionary measures to the prolonging of orgasmic pleasure, from the problems - psychological and physiological - in lovemaking to the joys of intimacy, Dr. Stanway's guide offers both counsel and encouragement.

A T Mann & Jane Lyle
In many ancient faiths sexuality was the ultimate sacred act. Lust originally meant the joy experienced through a union with the divine and was the central element of the old feminine-centred goddess religions and cultures. Tantric Buddhist beliefs also see sexuality as sacred, life-affirmative and as a precious source of vital energy. This richly illustrated book delves into these ancient traditions and mysteries, providing a fascinating antidote to the repressions and gender divisions in modern society.

The linking of spirituality and sexuality is as old as the human race itself. Evidence from many different cultures suggests that we have always found in the visual expression of sex a means of symbolizing the great conflicting forces of the universe. From creation myths to explanations of the heavens, from the delicate rendering of the Taoist artists of the sexual act as a symbol of cosmic balance to the brutal assertions of male power in Celtic statuary, this engaging book leads us through a multiplicity of beliefs and religions to a better understanding of the world's greatest mysteries.

This illustrated guide to Tantric lovemaking is the perfect practical guide for the countless lovers who complain that sexual harmony is so easily broken and that love, rather than being pure bliss, is more like walking through a minefield - where at any moment a false move can turn off enthusiasm and snuff out all chances for orgasmic satisfaction.

Michael Sky
Sky explores how to restore peace and partnership in the lives of men and women. He proposes that after 5,000 years of patriarchal domination, the abuse of the female has become so ingrained in our culture as to become viral in nature. By naming the problem, he helps us begin the process of dealing with it. The author stresses the importance of going beyond the violent nature inherent in a male-dominated society to understand and embrace true and lasting partnership so that we can enjoy a fuller, balanced sexuality. "Calls for the most profound, the most rooted transformation/revolution possible: that women and men live out their human relationships as true partners." - Matthew Fox.

Thomas Moore
In our age of science and psychology it's tempting to think of human sexuality in terms of biology and interpersonal relationships. But this new book by Thomas Moore regards sex as an experience of the soul and emphasizes the themes of fantasy, desire, meaning, and morality. In The Soul of Sex, Moore turns especially to religion, mythology, literature, rites, stories, and visual imagery that see in sex some of the most profound mysteries of life. He finds spirituality inherent in sex and at the same time explores the many ways in which spiritual values can sometimes wound our sexuality. Remainder mark.

Mikaya Heart
Owning our desires should be neither embarrassing nor uncomfortable. Nor should they be subject to anyone else's moral judgement of what is right or wrong, good or bad, normal or abnormal. Because typically we are taught to put our needs aside and take care of others first, this kind of sexual confidence rarely comes naturally to most women. Combining communication with information is the key. So take this book to bed... and shrug off those old taboos about what turns you on and what doesn't. The result of hundreds of interviews, When the Earth Moves is, in more ways than one, a labor of love. Mikaya Heart takes us on an unflinchingly honest, always responsible, thoroughly comprehensive exploration of female sexuality.
