Product Description
Product Description
Who was Nostradamus, and what faith should we place in his predictions? This book gives objective answers. It reveals that Michel de Nostredame, a 16th-century French doctor, was more Renaissance man than arcane magician - and that his prognostications can be compellingly astute. In this edition all of the cryptic short verses of Nostradamus's Centuries appear in the original French, with new translations. Uncanny prophecies such as those of the French Revolution and the rise of Hitler are examined in detail. Here too are interpretations of the many verses believed to augur future events. Editor Ned Halley works in fields of journalism as diverse as medicine, wine and business. He takes a Plain English approach to 'a subject far too often wreathed in language that seems calculated to obscure, rather than to demonstrate, the truth'.

Format:Paperback
Have no idea what the other commentor expected really the book is exactly as stated, the complete prophecies of Nostradamus. Each quatrain is given first in French then an English conversion and then the authors take. There are a number of other books available that go into much detail about Nastradamus but this book pretty much goes straight into the quatrains. As I have seen in many other books.
A good buy as it does exactly what it says on the tin!

New Edition

Format:Paperback
The reviews above are for a different edition. There is no Latin in this edition and I found the book to be exactly what it claims to be.

The price is right
9 Feb 2009
Format:Paperback
Reading this book leaves you wondering with your own illustrations and possibilities without the opinion or influence of what others think which in turn could be a positive or a negative thing. To me it was a positive thing because i wanted to see first hand the contents "directly from the horses mouth". I recommend it to those who tend to have more independent thinking.

The complete prophecies of Nostradamus
6 Nov 2007
Format:Paperback
This book was very simple to follow, although it didn't show when these prediction happened. All that was provided was an English translation of the quatrains and no explanation of what they meant or how thy fit into the past or present. This was a waste of money. If you want a good understanding of the prophesies purchase another book. Very disappointing!
