A book on the basics naturally cannot cover everything but the basics, and thus, this one left me wondering about the glaring untouched areas the author couldn't cover. For example, what do you do when the position of your house is exactly the opposite of what she recommends? It would be all but impossible to turn your house around, and nearly as unrealistic to move, but she offers no solution to this fundamental problem. Yet, the author turned the complicated subject into an interesting and easy read.

I bought three books on this subject and this was by far the worst. Her thoughts seem disjointed and random. In many cases, when she speaks of negative chi reguarding house orientation or surroundings, she offers no solution. I guess she expects us to move.

Most serious students of feng shui consider Lillian Too the leading expert in the field. I have most of her writings in my personal library. I am what can be called a visual learner. The illustrations accompanying each suggestion makes people like myself grasp the concepts more readily. In just three weeks after I rearranged my home, I have seen the positive changes in my life! Now, I am rearranging my office! I highly recommend Basic Feng Shui above all other writings by Lillian Too and others!

Lillian Too is known the world over as the best writer on the subject of feng shui. When trying to decide which of her books to get as an introduction to the subject I was instantly attracted to the layout and easy reading flow of BASIC FENG SHUI. The book lived up to my expectations both of the subject and the author.I simply could not put the book down ! Now I know why Lillian Too outsells everyone else, and why she seems to be attracting the occasional green eyed monster .. keep up the good work, Lillian...

Well written in an easy to understand format. Excellent for introduction into feng shui. Makes me want to learn more.

BASIC Feng Shui is definitely the BEST of Lillian Too's books. It is exceptionally well laid out, efficiently organised and very simple. The book is tight, succint and to the point. It is so captivating that this is the first non fiction book I could not put down. I read it all in ONE sitting and want to say it is a GREAT book !
