5.0 out of 5 stars At last a book that explains feng shui, April 18, 2007

I became fed up with the supersticious side of feng shui but reading this restored my faith. Simon Brown dispells the myths and shows how it really works. He does it so well it seems common sense after a while. No wonder he does so much work for big corperations.

I tried moving my bed and changed my work position according to this book and it worked. I really do feel better.

I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a straight forward approach to feng shui.

I was looking for a book on feng shui and this is definitely IT. It has plenty of information. Easy enough for beginners to understand and gives you key points on what to do to improve energy flow in your home. The best advice though: "Don't fix anything that's not broken." It might not be an in depth encyclopedia, but it's a great starting point.

Curious about Feng Shui I saw this book for full price at a store, didn't want to pay that; glad to find it on Amazon!
I am amazed at how much Feng Shui there is and find it fascinating. I do not live to this totally but think some of it's organization is good and good for people. I haven't finished book yet but have enjoyed realizing my home is rather Feng Shui and it is truly a comfortable home. LOTS of great history, information, different versions/beliefs are listed, easy reading/format, nice pictures.
