In moving away from the typical black magician perspective of eroticism and the occult, Sarane Alexandrian brings much needed clarity to the depths of sex magic. The Great Work of the Flesh has synthesized the history and methods of this ancient art like no other before it, where we enter a realm of orgasmic wonder. Translator Jon Graham has brilliantly brought Sarane Alexandrian's work to life for the English world. Jason Gregory, author of The Science and Practice of Humility This outstanding work by Sarane Alexandrian, one of the authors best qualified to write it, has now been skillfully and knowledgeably translated into English by Jon Graham, one of those most qualified to translate this work. Don't miss it. Donald Traxler, translator of The Inner Traditions Maria de Naglowska series A potent history of the mystical magical rituals that elevate sexuality into a transcendent experience heightening consciousness and alchemical evolution. Brigitte Mars, author of The Sexual Herbal: Prescriptions for Enhancing Love and Passion The Great Work of the Flesh digs through the world's cultures and long histories to reveal the erotic lore called 'sex magic' that constitutes serious possibilities for us all--far beyond the biologized eroticism of mere sex-drive scientific sexology. In taking these charms, incantations, rituals, herbs, potions, and meditations seriously, we can get glimpses that there are ever more erotic galaxies still out there to be fathomed and shared. Stuart Sovatsky, PhD, author of Advanced Spiritual Intimacy and Words from the Soul Alexandrian's study, which is well supported by striking examples, deserves our full attention, for it reveals an aspect of our humanity that is far too often concealed. Claude Lecouteux, professor emeritus, Paris-Sorbonne, and author of The High Magic of Talismans and
