One of the best feng shui titles!,
Many are confused about feng shui. With more than 300 mass market books to choose from, it is almost impossible to distinguish between those titles written by true masters and scholars and titles written by those looking for an easy buck. Unfortunately, the latter and most prominent group of books are based on superstition and myth. Fortunately, the March 2000 issue of the London-based monthly magazine, Feng Shui For Modern Living, has compiled a list of the 'top ten feng shui titles.' They are as follows:1. Chinese Whispers by Rosalyn Dexter 2. Feng Shui by Ernest Eitel 3. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Feng Shui by Elizabeth Moran and Val Biktashev 4. Feng Shui by Stephen Skinner 5. The Living Earth Manual of Feng Shui by Stephen Skinner 6. The Complete Illustrated Guide to Feng Shui by Lillian Too 7. The Illustrated Encyclopedia by Lillian Too 8. Feng Shui Handbook: A Practical Guide by Derek Walters 9. Feng Shui: Perfect Placing For Your Happiness and Prosperity by Derek Walters 10. Feng Shui by Eva Wong If you want to learn about feng shui, begin your study here. Skinner's books deal mostly with terrestrial or Form School feng shui and are truly worthwhile. Derek Walters is a renowned astrologer. His books are accurate and thorough. Although I believe Lillian Too is too commercial and superficial, her books are good for those not wanting to spend the time to understand more sophisticated methods of feng shui. By far my most favorite book is The Complete Idiot's Guide to Feng Shui by Moran and Biktashev. This book has it all: feng shui's origins; feng shui's scientific value; two classical methods of determining your home's auspiciousness; Chinese zodiac astrology, and the Four Pillars of Destiny (written by the world-respected Master Joseph Yu), a method of determining your luck. What's great about this book is that it is a no-nonsense, humorous guide to understanding exactly what feng shui is and isn't and how this 6,000 year old Chinese art and science can help you increase your health, wealth, and relationship. You won't be disappointed!

Thumbs up !,
By L Cuypers (Belgium) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Complete Idiot Guide Feng Shui (Paperback)
A thorough, step-by-step, easy to read book that looks at classical feng shui without losing the Western reader along the way. A big round of applause for its authors who have been masters in the field for years and have taken the time and effort to write this book and share their knowledge. Loads of interesting facts, going back to and providing a better insight in Chinese traditions of how to approach the world and more particularly, our living space. Distant from so many westernized and generalised books about feng shui, this book takes you every step of the way to a basic understanding of some of the main principles of feng shui and this in a fun and educative mode. A definite thumbs up! If you are looking for a thorough, interesting and fun way to learn about feng shui, this is definitely the book for you. This is not a book you want to put down once you've started reading it and working with it. As you work your way through the book, step-by-step, you get a better insight in how we relate to our surroundings and how we are influenced by it. A great way to help you get a better insight into your life, your living space and that of your close one's. Providing you with a glimpse into what the future might hold for you, you actually feel more confident in living your life and protecting those of your loved ones. Moreover, should you get stuck, Elizabeth Moran actually takes the time to help you through any rough patches. The first book I ever came across that provides a service like that. A more than worthwhile read!

Comprehensive and Helpful,
By Patricia Zimmerman (Reno, NV USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Complete Idiot Guide Feng Shui (Paperback)
This book was thorough in teaching the history behind the practice of Classical Feng Shui. It is easy to read, illustrations were well-done, and it offers ways to practice as you go along. There is a great feeling in obtaining a comprehensive knowledge about a unique philosophy of an ancient and wise culture. But I was most impressed that when I had a more specific question concerning a room of my home, the authors, who list their email address in the book, answered completely and promptly with courtesy and understanding.
