An informative guide comes from experience, and few know sex — from swinging to submission — the way sex performer, sexual adventurer, and sex educator Nina Hartley does. Just like its author, this book is witty and smart, clearly summing up into entertaining and digestible pieces years of experience.

The book, loosely structured around the series of more than 30 Nina Hartley's Guides produced during the past decade, is what Hartley says is the "sex guide I wish I had owned when I turned 18." Sexologist Annie Sprinkle sums it up aptly: This book "will be a pleasure seeker's bible." Amen.
