Format:Paperback
This book comes across rather 'coffee tablish'. Not a term I would normally use as praise, but so much stuff out there is heavy going from page 1. This offers a gentle introduction to the world of tarot in full colour with heaps of interesting history and non-history. Ms Pollack is not shy of a good deal of debunking whilst still introducing the reader to a large quantity of cross references and interesting tangents. I love it - looks nice too!
Now then, back to those card definitions in the other books - *sigh*.

If you are a beginner, then you MUST buy this definitive book on the Tarot. It encompasses every area of the Tarot, from it's early history, it's integral connections with the Kabbalah, explanations of the individual cards, and even practise spreads. The major factor that makes this book superior is that the illustrations are superb. Every page is adorned with cards from every Tarot pack imaginable, making the book a pleasure to simply look at, as well as being a superlative read. The added bonus is that you can view the various designs and choose one that suits you the most. It even comes with a potted history of every type of deck, ranging from the Golden Dawn cards up until the most modern interpretations.

Excellent beginner's resource
This probably isn't the only tarot book you'll ever need, but it's one that I would recommend as a "first read" to a sensible, serious beginner. Read more
