With Levine, her husband and collaborator, Hartley translated her 22 years as an adult film star into a series of sex education videos. Now again with Levine's assistance, she puts her expertise into print. Her well-written guide is strong on both safe sex and a permissive approach and includes substantial sections on toys, swinging, three-ways, dominance/submission, and erotic spanking-in addition to the usual topics. In general, she handles the material frankly, accurately, and with sensitivity. Her anatomical descriptions are excellent, as are the tips on sharing masturbation, coping with uncomfortably sized genitalia, and why not to make love like a porn star (porn sex is heavily edited, unsafe, unrealistic, and performed by people accustomed to unusual activities). Unfortunately, the only illustrations consist of tiny, soft-core film shots that seem to run counter to her "not like a porn star" advice and leave the reader wishing for anatomical drawings and sketches of some of the techniques. And be warned: the multitude of approaches in the oral sex sections could confuse a neophyte. Suitable for sophisticated, experienced readers and large collections.-Martha Cornog, Philadelphia Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
