Master/Slave Relations: Handbook of Theory and Practice

by Robert J. Rubel, Jay Wiseman

This book is for Masters. This book is for established Masters who are curious about what someone could possibly write on the subject they know so well. This book is also for those relatively new to the BDSM Lifestyle who are finding themselves called to Mastery. The book covers a wide range of topics, starting with some planning steps to use before you even start looking for a slave, progressing through the negotiations stages, and ending up with some tips and techniques that you can consider once you've been with your slave for a while. In that light, this book is an excellent choice if you are already in an M/s relationship and want some ideas about how to do a reality check.

Reviews

[Eddie]

Written by an academic and professional who treats relationships like business partnerships, I learned many things about management from this book. Read a little like a text book, including chapter summaries at the end. Does have good ideas about mantaining relationships (kinky or normal).

[Dameon Launert]

A lot of fluff and not much substance. Lots of spelling and grammar mistakes. The inset quote boxes were oddly placed, interrupting sentences.

[Gebo]

A decent overview of the BDSM lifestyle. It's a good guide to help you determine where you fit or what ethics you put on your lifestyle or how to structure your life.
