A is for Ancient; as in written in Sanskrit during the 4th century.
B is for Bihar: the modern city in India where the book was compiled.
D is for Disciple of Erotics: The translation of the books first form the Kama Shastra.
G is for Gutpa Period: The era in Indian history most known for its prolific Sanskrit writing.
I is for India: It was written in India by Vatsyayana
K is for Kama; meaning "Desire"
S is for Sutra: meaning "Thread", same as like from a forum; it means a discussion.
I'll quote Wikipedia to help you out with the rest:
"Only about 20 percent of the book is devoted to sexual positions. The remainder gives guidance on how to be a good citizen and insights into men and women in relationships. The Kama Sutra describes making love as "divine union". Vatsyayana believed that sex itself was not wrong, but doing it frivolously was sinful. The Kama Sutra has helped people enjoy the art of sex at a deeper level and can be considered a technical guide to sexual enjoyment, as well as providing insight into the sexual mores and practices of India in those times"
The 64 sex positions listed and often illustrated in the Kamasutram are the juicy bits most people think of when they hear the book's title. The book itself is the result of a series of rewrites that started from many sources and compiled throughout Indian history to make the knowledge more widely available. The Kama Sutra is the most successful version.
Other then that, you will have to find a copy and read it. Most municipal libraries have it on hand or can order it.

Pictorial illustrations, made in India, many hundreds of years ago. The illustrations show numerous positions for sex. Most of them need two acrobats going at it. Kama Sutra is the name of the book.

The Kama sutra is a Vedic text which includes descriptions (and in illustrated versions) pictures of sexual positions.
Thus, kiddies are as excited by it as they are by topless women in National Geographic.

originally karmasutra was the art of love- it come from india. it explained how to court someone properly, how to deal with your partner, how to run a marriage, and how to have sex.
now most people only read about all the sexual teachings-especailly the positions. the newer age subcatagory to it is Tantra- its less misogyntic

kamasutra is not to be explained but rather to be practiced over and over again.
