Excellent illustrations and descriptions. ( )

Two stars instead of one because I remember it had some nice illustrations and some basic information about the stories behind the constellations of the zodiac.

The 'technical' section is provided by an ephemeris (a table of the relative positions of the planets), information of how to make adjustments for geographical location, instructions of how to plot them onto a diagram to provide a birth chart, and details of how to interpret the significance of the chart.

For me, this book was an insight into how an individual birth chart might be produced, but also confirmed the pseudo-scientific nature of the whole enterprise. ( )
