Feng Shui Book recommendation

Recommended Posts

I want to buy a book about Feng Shui. I've already an idea of what Feng Shui is.

 

Eva Wong is a nice writer, so I was evaluating one of her books:

- Feng Shui

- A Master Course in Feng-Shui

 

Has anyone already read these books ? What's the difference between the two ? Which one do you suggest ?

I had the first one recommended to me by someone who really knew his Feng Shui stuff, i bought it and have explored it a little but not in depth (one day...), it has a really solid foundation in the underlying principles and is very clear and systematic.

I borrowed the first book 'Feng Shui' a while back from the library and found it a good resource, although a bit dense in some parts.

 

Then I forgot about it until I came across the 'Master Course' book in a bookstore recently. I flicked through it and it's quite similar in content to the first title. On Amazon it seems to be published more recently so perhaps it's an expanded/revised version?

 

I'm not a Feng Shui expert and I've only read Feng Shui books by 3-4 different authors, but I think Eva Wong's Feng Shui books are one of the best available in English. The books go into concepts others don't mention, such as the different dragon/tiger landform shapes.

 

If you read the reader reviews on Amazon they're pretty spot on, even the negative ones which highlight the shortcomings in the books.

This one will get you started: http://www.aafengshui.com/ but Eva Wong's books will take you throughout Taoism in a stepping stone staircase manner... She is a master communicator with a close relative (Sifu level) that teachers her the Tao.

In my travels I have left Cleary books at library book drops but I keep Eva's books - particularly: "Cultivating Stillness"...
