I don't know what all the complaining about this book is over. This was one of the first astrology books that I ever read, and it isn't a bad start. There are far worse books out there on the market than this book. I can think of a dozen that are downright determinental to the profession. The title is simply designed to sell the book. There isn't an only book in the literal sense; astrology students read dozens of books a year. The author wasn't marketing to serious students. She was marking to people who only read astrology at a glance. Parker's is a great textbook but it isn't anywhere near the only book either--it doesn't exist. The only issue that I have with this book is that in my experiance solar charts are useless --you need to find your birth time or have a professional astrologer calculate your unknown time, and beginning students do not understand how to use any emphemeris let alone the brief one in the back of this text. You need to have your chart calculated by www.astro.com or some other free site. The synasty is not helpful either if you are looking for a true comparison between partner's, but honestly, anyone with common sense should recognize that. The descriptions are brief, but they tend to be accurate. There aren't any aspects however, so you aren't getting a full reading. Astrology for the most part is extremely easy. So many people jump into the subject without a sound background and they make a muddle of the whole thing. There are so many people out there in need of a lobectomy because they fail at the basics. The more complicated people make the topic the less concise it ends up becoming--I say that after seeing hundreds of charts and reading hundreds of books. It's just not that hard folks. If you like this stuff read Kevin Burk. His beginner book is better for people who intended to do astrology seriously.Buy The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need!
