Feng Shui Dos & Taboos

Summary: Mini Glossary
Review: Feng Shui Dos & Taboos is like the glossary that you wish the big Feng Shui books had in the back pages. Though a little pricey for the amount of content, it's ok as a quick answer guide.

Summary: Buy "Move Your Stuff, Change Your Life" Instead
Review: Few suggestions in this book come with any reasoning behind them. If you are the type of person who likes to understand the reasoning behind given suggestions - don't bother with this one. If you can blindly follow directions, without knowing why - go for it. In summary, it's a quick read and may serve to spark someones interest in the subject but that's all folks.

Summary: Big things come in little packages...
Review: I am just starting to explore this subject.So far this book is the easiest to understand. The intro is short and concise, then into the book you go. It's been fun to share with my hubby. Now when I study on about Feng Shui, I'll feel less overwhelmed. It was actually easy once I made my chart! Great gift too!

Summary: Great quick reference guide.
Review: I felt a little like I was reading a small children's book, the size is about 4x4, one focus point per page. It's ok .....

Summary: Perfect Book for understanding the art of Feng Shui
Review: Prior to Angi Ma Wong's book, little else I read about Feng Shui was as easy to understand. She clearly explains the fundamentals of the practice, the history and how the art of placement affects all of our lives. Unlike other Feng Shui books, Angi gives you quick tips so that you can start practicing Feng Shui right now! The book is the best way to approach Feng Shui because as the saying goes, "You learn by doing". The tips are endless and you will find projects for every room in your home and every aspect of your life. I never expected so much info! It is a steal!

Summary: Great supplemental reference guide
Review: This book is best used as a quick reference guide to Feng Shui! It's fun to read through and full of information, but it's not meant to be an introductory book for beginners. It's great as a reference though, it's super easy to look up information on the fly.

Summary: Very Practical
Review: This book is very basic. Bought some candles? Flip to the candle section and it will tell you where you should put them. Same goes for just about every other item as well (mirrors, plants...) Everything is in alphabetical order

Summary: Mini Glossary
Review: This is a cute little book that is definately geared to those who practice "Compass" forms of Feng Shui. Some of the tips made me chuckle and some I marked for reference and possible usage. For what ever form of Feng Shui you practice, I'd say some, or a good many of Ms. Wong's do's and don't's are adaptable to your form, but the book does require some knowledge and back ground in Feng Shui, or you might be instituting the wrong cure. This little book has a somewhat more light-hearted approach then I expected, but it is a good antidote to those ponderous and deadly dull Feng Shui authors/practitioners who think they know it all and spend their time intolerantly bashing anyone who does not practice their exact form of Feng Shui. I would still highly recommend Karen Rauch Carter and Stephen Skinner for your first forays into Feng Shui, and after you become more proficient Ms. Wong's book will have it's place.

Summary: A Supplement to Your Feng Shui Book Collection
Review: This is a handy little book with quick tips to SUPPLEMENT your collection, otherwise, I would NOT recommend this to be an introduction to Feng Shui. It would seem strange and "silly", as commented by another reviewer, if you don't at least have background knowledge. I would recommend "The Western Guide to Feng Shui" By Terah Kathryn Collins, and/or "Feng Shui for Dummies" by the for Dummies series. These two books will introduce you to the concepts and also teach you ways to use this ancient art to enhance certain areas of your life. One caveat, there are many different "schools" of Feng Shui out there. For this reason, I highly recommend the for Dummies series as it uses a combination of all the schools of thought and does so in a simplified manner that anyone could master. I've purchased many books on the subject and started to become confused and inundated while learning of the different schools of thought. It can become quite discouraging in this way. My advice is to stick to one school of thought, or, as I said before, try the for Dummies series. Again, one last word for this book, it's a quick reference and not a comprehensive guide. I recommend it only if you've had some exposure to the art. It has many handy and quick hints.
