| Still unknown classic textThis is basically the Persian Kama Sutra, although it is probably even more comprehensive in scope, covering many aspects of lovemaking, not just the positions.
This is the edition and translation by Sir Richard Burton (not to be confused with the recent actor), who was a renowned 19th century explorer, Arabic linguist, and sword expert. I'm more familiar with his famous book on sword types and history, which is one of the best ever written. I am a sword instructor myself, and found his book invaluable in extending my own knowledge of some of the other traditions, I being mainly a Chinese and Japanese stylist.
Cheikh Nafzaouwi (not sure of the original spelling anymore, so I apologize in advance for that) intended this book to be useful as a practical manual for any man in his sex life, and, considering it was written in the 16th century, it just goes to show you that not much has changed when it comes to sex.
Some of the sections are downright funny, such as the chapter that begins with all the Arabic terms and descriptions for the different personalities or "types of vulvas." They are described in words such as (I forget the Arabic terms, but anyway, the definition is the funny part): "This is the vulva of a woman who has not had intercourse in a long time. It will not allow you to withdraw until you have entered it again and again." Other names translate as "the great one," and "the playful one." There are other even funnier descriptions, which I don't recall right now, but anyway, this will give you some idea of what they're like.
Anyway, this book is entertaining if only for some of the choicer sections such as the above.

| The First Book of Investing, Fully Revised 3rd Edition: THe absolute beginner's guide to building wealth safety.Hello,
I ordered my book on August 30, 2008 and received it about 4-5 days later. I was nervous because I've never ordered anything on AMazon.com., and was nervous.
I'm happy to say that the book is in very good shape, which made me happy. Haven't had a chance to read it, but it's not exactly a novel. But I have had a chance to read parts of it and it's everything my friend, who recommended it to me, said it would be. :)
Thank you for being honest in your ad and quality of the merchandise and condition.
Thank you again.

| DisappointedHmmm. I was looking for a worthwhile book offering tips, jigs, and general routing knowledge. Not here. First, the book is British. Not a bad thing if you're British, but I was hoping to read about American products and practices. Second, what's here is just flat out weak. I'm being generous by giving it 2 stars.
