BOOK DESCRIPTION

What Happens in Jamaica, Stays in Jamaica...

Except in this tell-all, cheeky guide to the world's naughtiest resort, Hedonism II.

Everyone returns from Hedonism II with at least one good story no one at home believes.

Is Hedonism II a retirement home for worn-out swingers? Is it the testosterone tour-de-force with too few eligible single women to clamor over? Is it a cult that sucks away all you vacation time? Well, the last one might be true.

Learn why Hedonism II has a 90% repeat guest rate - the highest of any Caribbean hotel - even though the facilities are tired, the food is inconsistent, and the beach sand hurts your feet - if you are still standing after a week.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

One of the most daring and controversial experiments in the movement toward open sexuality, Sandstone-a retreat  in the California mountains – has long been  the subject of much conjecture and speculation. Now, in SANDSTONE EXPERIENCE, Tom Hatfield, the resident manager and the first member of the permanent inner “family” to write about his experiences, reveals the facts of what went on in this much-misunderstood community where nudity and sexual sharing were part of daily life.

The author vividly describes the rare excitement generated by the diverse, well-educated, and creative population of Sandstone, including eminent representatives of the creative arts and professions. A thorough screening process eliminated those looking for cheap thrills, restricting guests and members to an intellectually aware group of adults willing to probe society’s strictures on our minds and bodies and eager to share their liberating discoveries with others ready to set aside limiting boundaries. Sandstone’s novel approach to intepersonal relationships created an environment that dispelled many conventional illusions about marriage, jealousy, and masculine and feminine stereotypes.

Tom Hatfield explains how the release of sexual tension functions to free our psychic energy for our own  inner development and discusses the rationale behind nudity, “recreational” sex, and group sex. He traces his first involvement with Sandstone, his relationship with the other members of the nuclear “family,” his growth within its walls, and his final commitment to its philosophy. The reader is introduced to many of the fascinating people who participated in Sandstone’s wide range of activities and who represent all facets of emotional and physical inclination.

As Robert Rimmer, author  of The Harrad Experiment, says of the book in his introduction: “In my opinion, it’s an important sociological document. As you read this book, you can discover the parameters of your own morality.”

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Today, in the midst of the sexual revolution, millions of people are robbing themselves of complete sexual fulfillment. Their greatest desire -often hidden even from themsleves- is for variety: variety in sexual experience, in sexual partners, and in types of sexual acts. Most people never fulfill this desire, held back by fear, timidity and the conventions of monogamy. John and Mimi Lobell have achieved it.

Their books tells everything: their former sexual conventionality, what changed their living patterns, what their new life has meant to them. They speak in loving detail of their encounters with friends, together or separately. Often their new lovers reacted first in astonishment and disbelief, only to find themselves gaining similar fulfillment by broadening their sexual horizons, increasing their capacity for love. The effcet of all this is joyful and liberating. John and Mimi, in showing how sexual openness can result in fuller and richer lives, have givent he world a stirring and important book.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Wonderful sex does more than melt both body and soul; it brings power, energy, and deep satisfaction to all aspects of our lives. In this unique book, women who consider themselves highly sexually responsive talk in intimate detail about what gives them the greatest pleasure. They redefine sex - based on how women really experience sexual pleasure - confirming  what every woman knows instinctively, while creating a new language that every woman will understand.

Based on interviews conducted by Dr. Ogden with hundreds of women, this thought-provoking, wise, and unprecedented book transforms how we view sex by giving us new ways to think about sexual pleasure.
