Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Since humans first began thinking creatively--as opposed to merely procreatively--about sex, men and women have spiced up their love lives with this and that. Every civilization has come up with its own sex objects and sex toys.
From rudimentarily-fashioned objects to the most exquisite ivory carvings of the Far East, eroticism has found expression in a multitude of different forms all displayed here.
The beauty and craftsmanship of these artistic masterpieces bear striking witness to the powers of generation in every culture throughout history.
From works of art to sex toys, historian Hans-Jurgen Dopp analyzes the complexities of human behavior and the secret delights of those who own the little treasures featured in this book.
