Carroll, York Beach ME; Samuel Weiser Inc., 1992. ISBN 0-87728-742-2 One might include Louis Culling's SEX MAGIC in this list, but I didn't think much of it personally, as it is rather dated and somewhat sexist in it's approach. His recommendation of using champange as a sex magick "potion" is rather quaint... Also Anton LaVey's SATANIC BIBLE includes a section on casting seduction spells, if one is inclined toward Anton's style. A survey of the works of Aleister Crowley will reveal some information about sexual magick practices, as will the works of Austin Osman Spare. However, the information to be found is couched in guarded or allegoriacl terms that the beginning student may find hard to decipher. I shall leave recommendations for Eastern Tantric texts to those here who are more versed in the subject. - J:.M:.555
