Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Combining aesthetics, philosophy, and practicality, feng shui seeks to help us order our homes, and by extension our lives. Extensively explored in this very attractive book, these principles hold that the organization of our everyday environment has a powerful effect on our physical and emotional well-being, and that by changing our homes we can transform our lives. Rearranging the home's contents helps to focus the chi (movement of energy) to overcome the negative forces at work in certain spaces. Various colors, shapes, sounds, and the use of water and plants are also important considerations. Some of the tenets are commonly known practicalities (painting a bedroom deep blue is more restful than vivid red; reducing chaos on the shelves and in the closets removes confusion from your life), while others are more philosophical (avoid positioning a bed or desk directly beneath a beam, which interrupts the flow of energy over your head and may therefore interfere with rest or with concentration). Very well explained and more lavishly illustrated than many other books on this popular subject, this volume teaches how to utilize these ideas in your own home. It may even, in the words of the book, help you "revive a flagging relationship, boost your career, improve your health and enrich fading fortunes." --Amy Handy

5.0 out of 5 stars THE Feng Shui book for addicts and necomers alike, December 11, 1999
By Melanie (Stamford, UK) - See all my reviews
Having read practically every book on the market on Feng Shui, if I had to recommend one it would be this. The book combines an easy to understand guide to the basic principles of Feng Shui, with "before and after" examples of rooms that have been transformed in order to enhance a particular aspect of the inhabitant's life.

Glossy pictures throughout also make it a great coffee table book, and an ideal gift. In fact I have bought so many copies for friends I think Gina Lazenby ought to pay me commission!

Not to be missed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful photography, user-friendly, great for westerners, June 28, 1999
I found this book while looking in the home improvement section of a bookstore. Before then, I knew nothing about Feng Shui. Since then, I have become very interested because of this book. It includes before and after pictures illustrating how big a difference Feng Shui principles can make in your home environment. This book uses the form school of Feng Shui, which does not require the use of directions (north, south, west, east) and instead uses the juxtaposition of the parts of the house to the front door. Other books require you to use a compass and graphing tools, which can be cumbersome. Also, I have found the discussion of using symbols such as dragons and bamboo flutes in other Feng Shui books to be less relevant to me as a westerner. This book is absolutely beautiful and will enable anyone to use the principles of Feng Shui to improve their home environment.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book's a winner., January 21, 2000
By A Customer
Well I'll add my voice to the chorus of recommendations. I'm a feng shui rookie and this was the first book I bought on the subject. I'm very pleased with it. I'm interested in home decorating applications, so the many great color pictures of home interiors are what sold me. I was looking for inspiration and found it.

The book also has a solid overview of the principles. Though I consider the author a good teacher, but not a great one. Perhaps it's just the complexity of the subject that left me a little confused about some of the principles (or my own shortcomings :)). But it seemed like some things could have been clearer. For example I'm still befuddled about the precise methods of using elements to correct defects in sections of a bagua. Do mirrors and wood and other materials have the same compensating effect in each area?

Anyway, I need to keep studying the subject. But this book was a really good start.
