Poly Books

The following is a list of books taking almost directly from Amazon.com. I'll group them into poly-specific, poly-related, and poly-friendly. Not all of them talk entirely about polyamory or even responsible non-monogamy, but they'll touch on the subjects. I also have a category (Good Information) for books that focus on topics that transcend just poly but apply to all relationships.

Poly-Specific: books that talk very specifically about polyamory or non-monogamy.
"Opening Up: Creating and Sustaining Open Relationships" by Tristan Taormino

"Polyamory: The New Love Without Limits" by Deborah M. Anapol

"Polyamory: Roadmaps for the Clueless & Hopeful" by Anthony Ravenscroft

"Pagan Polyamory: Becoming a Tribe of Hearts" by Raven Kaldera

"Spiritual Polyamory " by Mystic Life

Poly-Related: books that have sections related to poly, but also talk about a number of other topics.

"Polyamory Many Loves: The Poly-Tantric Lovestyle: A personal account" by Janet Kira Lessin

Poly-Friendly: books that mention polyamory or non-monogamy as an option in the topics discussed in the book.
