Amazon.com Review
Forget Spanish fly or powdered rhino horn; if you want to get your lover in the mood, look no farther than your local supermarket. Strawberries, chocolate, asparagus--even coffee--have long been considered stimulants for the romantic appetite. For centuries, folk wisdom held that foods either rare or resembling a sexual organ had tremendous power over the libido. Modern science has since debunked that theory, but there's no denying that a meal lovingly prepared and properly presented with just the right ambience can precipitate the most passionate encounters. In Intercourses: An Aphrodisiac Cookbook, Martha Hopkins and Randall Lockridge appeal to all the senses as they offer up 85 heart-melting, temperature-raising dishes, along with an array of sensuous photographs that will make you look at food in a whole new light. The book is divided into 17 sections, each one devoted to a particular food with aphrodisiac qualities, from chocolate and chilies to black beans and oysters. Following these are recipes for massage oils, seasonal dishes, and meals to appeal to every astrological sign and every stage of a relationship, from first date to golden anniversary. There's even a list of resources on subjects ranging from further reading on aphrodisiacs to locating aromatherapy candles. Just reading Intercourses is a sensual experience--imagine what eating from it will be!

The New Intercourses
I loved this cook book. I gazed at the fabulous photos, clutched it to my chest, breathed it in, cooked up a storm of delicate delights, fed my husband and then gave it to a girlfriend to share the experience. jana@awomansgoodnight.com

Perfect Wedding Gift
I love this cookbook. The recipes are great, the photographs are great and amazon has the best price hands down. It is my standard wedding gift.

Fantastic Book!
This is really a GREAT cookbook! Terrific recipes, extremely creative pictures, fantastic "stories" to co-incide with the recipes. I've given this book as a gift for multiple bridal shower gifts - accompanied by a gift certificate for Victoria's Secret. And, most recently I bought it as a wedding gift to accompany salt and peppermills off of the couple's registry and wrote a fun note - reminding them to always keep their "marriage spicy!" This book is tastefully erotic (no pun intended!)

Damaged cover
The book itself is great, but my cover is all dirty and scratched up, which is disappointing.

just good clean plates
I have been giving this book for engagements, anniversaries, or any excuse I can think of since it came out in 1997. The photography is beautiful. The recipes work on multiple levels, whether introducing the reader to a completely new ingredient or taking a new approach to a familiar ingredient, & are rarely intimidating. Thus, preparation becomes anticipation, also an aphrodisiac, instead of trepidation. The only complaint I ever heard from a recipient of this book was from my cousin, who prepared a complete aphrodisiac meal for her husband of 1 year using this book: "It must have been too strong because he skipped foreplay and intercourse, and went straight for the post-coital nap!"
