Product Description
This thoroughly researched book is a history of the development of Western horoscopic astrology from its origin among the Babylonians and its subsequent creation in its present form by the Alexandrians down to modern times. Special attention is given to background history and to the working conditions and techniques used by astrologers during the last two thousand years. Numerous footnotes provide additional information and bibliographic references. A separate bibliography lists reference sources of particular importance. Two comprehensive indices containing more than 2,800 individual entries enable the reader to locate persons, publishers, topics, and book and periodical titles that are mentioned in the history. The book also contains discussions of several questions and topics relating to astrology. James Herschel Holden is Research Director of the American Federation of Astrologers and has been especially interested in the history of astrology.
Reader Reviews
James Holden has done his homework and gives us a scholarly history of horoscopic astrology. I have been an admirerer of his translations of the works of 17th century French astrologer Morin for quite some time, but I had not had the opportunity until recently to read this text. Anyone interested in a reliable history of western astrology will appreciate this book. Holden gives not only historical facts but also explains astrological techniques in vogue at various times in history. I highly recommend this book to all serious students of astrology. James Holden deserves to be honored by the astrological community for his many scholarly contributions to the art.
