Format:Paperback
The title really is false advertising: You can't even do the kind of astrology that's described in the book with just this book, as you need an ephemeris--a chart that tells you what degree your planets are in--to figure out the aspects between planets, and this is a central part of astrology. You can find an ephemeris--as well as more helpful readings of what planets in signs and houses mean--from Parker's Astrology, a far superior all-in-one astrology book. Much of Woolfolk's book has a cut-and-paste feel. There's a chintziness about the writing that is in keeping with the choice of such a cheesy, mercenary title. I'd like to single out the section on synastry, or chart comparison, which is bad to the point of being harmful. I give this book two stars rather than one because it can give a beginner a general idea of what real astrology is about, and may lead them on to more serious books. So it has some value to the extent that its title is wrong.
Format:Paperback
I found this book very practical as it comes with a CD software that creates natal charts. Once you create a natal chart, it is very easy to look up the descriptions/meanings in the book, that are labeled by page and name. Well worth the money, however there is something missing and I cannot quite point out what. Good but not spectacular.
Format:Paperback
I bought this as a gift for someone and they have said that it really is the only book they will ever need, with the free cd rom that comes with it its perfect. Its a nice big book too and she loved receiving it - perfect for any astrology lover!

I received this as a Birthday gift a few years ago. Having glanced over the tripe presented within, I soon decided that it certainly IS the 'only' astrology book I'll ever need. Read more

Good but could use some work

A particular point is the assumption that all living humans are heterosexual. Read more
