This book is a couple of Westerners researching the much practised and honoured skill of Jyotishi in India. But unfortunately this book is not for the causal sort of reader wanting to understand the intricacies of Hinduism. I have yet to read a book which is able to explain the Hindu mythology or philosophy in any simple terms. There are negations and contradictions from the very second page which only get complicated as you leaf further. These faculties can only be properly understood with a living Guru not with a paper one I am afraid. I have yet again managed not to finish this one :(
