As a student of reflexology I was recommended this book by my tutor and thought it would be an essential part of my course. I was disappointed: the author makes a lot of assertions about the feet, which may be true, but at no time does she offer any evidence or examples of why she makes those assertions. The book is written in a very disorganised manner, almost as the thoughts came to the author, and there isn't an index which makes it even more difficult to follow. It is a shame because the subject is interesting and her assertions may be true, but it could be presented in a more coherent manner. The illustrations add nothing to the book and have a trivialising effect.
