Until recently the "technique" of love, the "technique" of marital life was familiar only to a few sexologists and in a distorted form to so-called voluptuous people who knew from illustrated pornographic publications about certain techniques and positions devoid of aesthetics, far from normal, healthy physiology and which degrade the dignity of partners in their own eyes. In this book the old gynecologist and sexologist, for the first time, dared to speak openly on the basis of the latest anatomical, physiological and clinical data in bourgeois Berlin about the importance of a whole series of bio-mechanical moments in the sexual act.
