To cut right to the chase, I simply can't imagine a better, more informative, more encouraging, more common-sensical, more readable sex guide than The Good Vibrations Guide to Sex. Semans and Winks have pulled off the near impossible: a book of solid sexual advice and information that can be consulted by people of both sexes, and by all orientations, races, ages and--this is its real fineness, I think--levels of experience. You can imagine this book being used by parents trying to tell their kids about sex, by teenagers trying to find out on their own, by newlyweds, by couples who've been together for years, by people who are single by choice or circumstance. ... Winks and Semans have written a book that is designed to grow with you throughout your sexual life. Among its other virtues, it's a work of breathtaking sanity.

Your mother, your father, your celibate sister, and the teenage boy who mows your lawn could all benefit from this book.

I always felt left out of the revolutionary impact of the book, The Joy of Sex... I considered it an outdated '60s book. Thankfully the folks at Good Vibrations have produced a hip new sex guide for my generation.

After teaching human sexuality courses at university levels for the past fifteen years I am delighted to find a book that is biased toward people and not one class of sexual orientees.

I like your attitude. I just bought the GV Guide and was mightily impressed! Sure beats the biased and clinical stuff I've seen crowding the shelves. Congratulations on writing such a courageous, sexy, and funny book!

Thanks for writing the best and most comprehensive guide to sex. Finally, there's a well written sex guide for both sexes. It's more than a book, it's a personal trainer of sorts—for sensual pleasure.
