Publisher's summary

This book details over 101 separate, diverse, self-contained true facts about human orgasms. They are divided into five categories: Hers, His, ‘Fancy That’, In the Media and ‘Basking in the Afterglow’. Though the book is meant to be an entertaining and educational celebration of all things orgasmic, it could also be viewed as a ‘Believe It Or Not’ or a ‘Well I Never’ guide to orgasms. Would you, for example, be willing to believe that women who have ‘vaginal orgasms’ walk differently to those that have ‘clitoral orgasms’? Well check item #92 of the book. Have you ever heard of the connection between Poughkeepsie (in New York State) and orgasms? That is #74. Any idea how many people around the world are orgasming, right now, while you are reading this? That is covered in #10. Have you ever celebrated an orgasm related holiday? There are at least three of them. While orgasm faking, by both genders, is talked about, multiple times, including in the context of the TV shows ‘Seinfeld’ and ‘Sex in the City’, what do you know about the deception involved in female copulatory vocalization (FCV). That is #8. Yes, the book does include lots of numbers, durations, lengths and volumes such as: 8 feet (you read that right), 20 seconds, 14 gallons (U.S.), 222, 35%, half a coffee cup full, ‘about 4 minutes’, less than 1”, 100 per hour and 89 years old. You are also likely to be introduced to quite a few new terms and concepts such as: ‘status orgasmus’, refractory period, birthgasms, Orgasm Rating Scale (OSR), intravaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT), téleclitoridiennes, elephant posture, Skene’s glands, edging and genetically modified orgasm (GMO). It is not really a ‘How To’ book. Nonetheless you will find plenty of information that will certainly help. You will read about: the best positions for achieving orgasms, orgasmic diets, natural remedies, medical solutions and the best day of the month – not to mention the best ‘toys’, e.g., the ‘Crave Duet’ for females and the ‘Humpus’ for males. You will even learn whether you should be wearing socks and what heel height might best serve the ladies. This is a book that covers a lot of ground. There is even culture and quite a bit on movies (e.g., first non-pornographic movie to show a female having an orgasm). So, in addition to the 1960s hit “Je t'aime… moi non plus” you will also read about ‘Liebestod’ in Richard Wagner’s ‘Tristan und Isolde’, Władysław Podkowiński’s ‘Frenzy of Exultations’, the incomparable Bernini’s ‘L'Estasi di Santa Teresa’ and some of the bawdy orgasmic scenes in John Cleland’s ‘Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure’. Oh! You might even be very surprised to learn that the term ‘come’ did not come to be the way you probably thought it did. So, yes, this book does cover a lot of ground when it comes to orgasms. Use the free ‘Look Inside’ to have a peak. As with most of the author’s other eBooks the eBook version of this is also priced at 99 cents to make it affordable. Even at just 101 facts, even though there is much more, that comes in at less than 1 cent per orgasmic fact! So check it out. You can always return it and get your money back in full. This is Anura Guruge’s fourth ‘101 Facts & Trivia’ book, his 23rd overall as a sole author. It is his first book on this topic, though probably not the last. He is best known for his books on popes, computer networking and comets. A print version of this book is planned. Version 1 Release 1, April 22, 2015.
