Kamasutra (Oxford World's Classics) Paperback – 26 Mar. 2009

Arrived on time, bit small but we knew it would be - for my daughter's theology degree!!! I do not have three more words!

funny read

Extremely small and tiny paper note pad like "book" not worth the money and shame on any seller here who are selling those type of "books" for 10 pounds, as they are not worth more than 1 pound.

if you are looking for a pocket size book. this is the ideal. i haven't red it yet but i am sure i learn form whatever is in it.

Would suggest to purchase a book on tantra before this, you’ll need it to get through the loooooong introduction before the main text actually starts

Really disappointed with this, as the description said it was illustrated and it most certainly is not. I already have a non illustrated version, so this was a waste of money for me.

I bought this edition (the Miniature edition) believing that I was getting a smaller version of the original Oxford edition, perhaps with fewer illustrations. Since I was interested in the text that was okay with me, but I was so disappointed. Apart from the very few illustrations (which I can tolerate) the text size is so large that you feel like browsing through the book rather than actually reading it. Furthermore, several parts of the text are left out, without this being shown in the "browse" view offered the to customers (the browse displays the original and unabridged version according to the table of contents!). Therefore, I really felt like a fool once I received the pocket version. It seems useful only as a gift idea or curiosity. Next time I'll buy the full version, no matter the price and size and shall not pay attention to the deceiving browsing options offered (Publisher, shame on you!).

Good condition

I suspect the blurb for this item has changed since I ordered it. Perhaps there was something in the fine print back then that is now in the first sentence. "Mini" is the concept I'm talking about. If I had known this would be a pocket-book curiosity rather than a text I could actually seriously engage with, I NEVER would have ordered it.

Nothing has moved me so much as this text. I truly recommend this text for people who are above 18. This is not a sex manual but something about which every man and woman should know, learn it properly and not literally and trust vatsyayana, you will realise what change it is going to bring to you

This is such a great book. The Kama Sutra was never meant to be pornographic in nature but sort of like a reference guide on how to conduct oneself in life. This is a great rendition of Vatsyayana's version of the Kama Sutra. There are very little to almost none of images, but the descriptions are worth enough to remedy that.

Very good book for any reader to know how Indian thinking.
