Peter Malsin's book is a rare thing, a scientifically keen, intellectually rigorous, mythologically sound and beautifully written analysis of Astrology's tremendous creative potential in the lives of ordinary human beings, i.e. US. He's passionate, but the whole book is anchored and earthed by a desire to communicate the essence of astrology's worth and potential. It's a book that explains, but never patronises. It asks searching questions, but doesn't claim to have all the answers. The man is full of passsion for his subject, and humble with it, and he's a damn good writer. You sense that he's on his own quest, and like all great questers he lives the questions rather than peddles answers. A very good book, and a book you go back to again and again.

Each man has his own path, to be sure, but in these days of microwaves and automobiles, many people find themselves being followers of science.

Even mysticists.

Peter Malsin is a prime example of this. He attempts to explain to the modern mind the reasons and causes of a system of philosophy that lies deep in the realm of faith. Although that is a horribly difficult task, Mr. Malsin doesn't fail...tho I doubt anyone could truely succeede.
