Book Description
With 15 new illustrations, five new chapters, 48 additional pages and 2,753 updates, this fully revised and expanded 6th edition of the Guide To Getting It On is the best ever. You will be hard-pressed to find a single page of this down-to-earth sex book that doesn't bring a smile, a blush of crimson, or a moment of awe. Few books on sex are as satisfying.
From the Author
People often wonder why I spend so much time and energy revising and updating The Guide. They say, What could possibly change THAT much about sex? Even as a so-called expert, I keep learning new things and discovering that a number of long-held facts and assumptions about sex aren't correct. And just when I think I understand how sex plays itself out in our society and culture, that changes too. It's important for me that The Guide reflects what I know now, not what I knew two or three years ago.
