5.0 out of 5 stars An essential tool for the serious astrologer, February 12, 2000
By A Customer
Sure, you can do it all with a computer now--but will you know what it is you've done? With this book, you'll be able to accurately figure house cusps (Placidus or Koch) for virtually any birth time and place (extreme latitudes excepted). If you also buy a decent ephemeris, you'll be able to cast horoscopes like a pro. I definitely think knowing how to do it by hand adds something to the experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use reference for the calculation of cusps, January 29, 2004
By OAKSHAMAN "oakshaman" (Algoma, WI United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
This is the book of tables that I originally trained with, so I suppose that it will always be my favorite. It is based on the Placidus system of house division, but I have never seen any flaw with this model. If you use any of the other house division systems you will no doubt find these tables to be of limited usefulness. Otherwise, you have all the well laid out and easy to read tables that you need for locating house cusps: tables of houses for 0 to 60 degree north, solar-siderial time correction, time correction for longitude, diurnal motion of the sun and planets, semidiurnal motion of the moon, etc. There is even a convenient table of longitudes and latitudes for major cities in both the U.S. and the rest of the world.

There is even a clearly written introduction on how to cast a natal horoscope with included examples. Of course you are also going to need a good ephemerides for planet location. I recommend the Rosicrucian ephemerides in conjunction with this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars It is what it says it is, plus, June 8, 2009
What can I say about this book? It's not a tremendous read - it's not supposed to be. It lives up to its title, and is a useful resource for those of us who cast horoscopes, or are learning to do so. It contains not only tables of houses, but explains how those houses are derived, and gives a wealth of information on casting charts that is difficult to find elsewhere. In short, it doesn't just present the information it claims to present, but it also gives some background on how that information is obtained, and what it represents.
Worth every penny.
