Compiled by Terry Slade
Sex is of course a vast subject. Rather than a comprehensive listing of
books on all aspects of human sexuality, this is mainly a list of the best
books I have found on the subjects of Tantric sex, Taoist sexual yoga,
prolonged sex, sacred sex, yogic sex, semen retention, pre-orgasmic sex,
karezza, edging, orgasm control, sex energy work, etc.
Because sex might be much more powerful, magical, healing, beneficial,
useful, mystical, sacred, holy, and fun than most people have experienced
or have been led to believe is the case. Or in other words, most of these
books present an alternative view of human sexuality - crucial knowledge that
has been lost and/or suppressed.
For a very interesting introduction to these ideas, check out this
chapter from Rob Brezsny's book, Pronoia
(Rob is the author of the syndicated column, Freewill Astrology):
The Orgasmic Roots of Pronoia - Rob Brezsny - freewillastrology.com/beauty/archives/120/the-orgasmic_roots_pronoia-nsfw
And I'm not saying that anyone really needs any of these books. This list
is here to support this alternative view in case anyone wants to research it.
Its pretty much just all common sense anyway. (Various other books of
interest are listed here as well).
Tons more info can be found online, check out my
Sex page.
In no particular order....
Tantra - Discovering the Power of Pre-Orgasmic Sex - Yogani
The Tao of the Loving Couple - Jolan Chang
I highly recommend these books by Joan Chang. Very straight-forward, no
nonsense, clearly written. Jolan says that the first book was written mainly
to help men, but after receiving many letters from women, he decided to
write the second book more oriented to couples. So these books are
companions, which could probably just have been combined into one book.
The first book includes a bibliography of books in English and a
bibliography of Chinese texts.
Healing Love Through the Tao - Cultivating Female Sexual Energy - Mantak Chia
The Multi-Orgasmic Man - Mantak Chia, Douglas Abrams
The Multi-Orgasmic Woman - Mantak Chia, Rachel Carlton Abrams
The Multi-Orgasmic Couple - Mantak Chia, Maneewan Chia, Douglas Abrams, Rachel Carlton Abrams
Sexual Reflexology - Mantak Chia, William U. Wei
These books by Mantak Chia present the subject of sexual energy in great
detail from a Taoist yoga perspective. The first two above are classics.
He also has many other books on various aspects of Taoism.
The Sexual Teachings of the White Tigress - Hsi Lai
The Complete Book of Chinese Health and Healing: Guarding the Three Treasures - Daniel P. Reid
A Complete Guide to Chi-Gung - Daniel Reid
The Art of Sexual Magic - Margo Anand
I have links to Amazon.com for several reasons. Their website is an excellent
reference source for information on books, including reviews and related
books. And Amazon is a good source for obtaining almost any book quickly and
reliably, including lower-priced used copies. I do not participate in
Amazon's referral program as I would not want that to affect my listing
of books here or to give that impression. (I may change my mind someday).
More info on Amazon links is here.
I also look for books at ebay.com and at local bookstores and libraray sales.

Classic book on sacred sex from an Eastern point of view (India, Nepal,
Tibet, China, Japan). Over a million copies sold, and translated into 20
languages. A huge book, encyclopedic, packed with info. Fun, interesting,
useful, amazing, totally awesome - get this book!
Worth having just for the over 600 original illustrations by Penny Slinger.
About 200 of the illustrations are in color in the 2nd edition (all are black
and white in the original edition). The new edition includes a section in
the front with color photos of archaeological artifacts discovered in the
20 years since the book was first published. Includes a large bibliography -
looks to be about 400 books. The bibliography was not updated for the newer
edition, so these are all books published before 1979, all the more useful
for serious researchers, since the market has been flooded with such books
since that time.

massage and has books and videos on that subject. This volume is actually
three of his previous books combined together: Tantric Massage

and Sacred Orgasms. Nicely illustrated with black and white drawings
by two different artists.

This book is out of print and hard to find. The basic message of the book is
very simple, so I will spill it out right here. The technique that is
recommended is to have sexual stimulation (either alone or with a partner) to
the point just before orgasm and then stop. The sexual energy will then
naturally rise to the heart (aided by putting your attention on the heart
center). This can then be repeated indefinitely. And solo practice is
recommended as the way to master the technique.

Out of print and extremely rare. I randomly came across this in a used
bookstore in 2022. I hope to someday find a way to digitize this book and put
it online. From the front cover - "He was trained in the only sex research
community in the world run by women." Theo reveals in the preface that his
teacher was Victor Baranco, which leads us to the intentional community
known as Lafayette Morehouse -

Baranco is siad to be an inspiration for Nicole Daedon and her Onetaste
movement (see above listing of her book).

Reich was originally a student of Freud. He was controversial and way ahead
of his time. This and many of his other books explain his ideas on neurosis
and human sexuality. He talks of "character armor", which is basically deep
chronic muscular tension, which he says is indicative of an inability to
experience a full orgasmic release.

The author is a dominant master in the world of BDSM. I once attended a
lecture he gave and it was a very interesting presentation. I especially
found interesting the idea that we are all "slaves" or "pharoahs" at
different times in our lives (infant/parent, child/parent, employee/employer,
etc).

Have not seen yet. There are tons of books on the subject of BDSM, etc.,
which is not an area I have greatly explored, but this one looks to have
some interesting angles, specifically concerning the spiritual aspects of
such practices. This is a collection of essays, some by guest authors.
Most of the included essays by the author are online at his website.
