A thoroughly researched treasure trove is this book. Probably would not recommend to beginners of the discipline as there are some hard as shit concepts to wrap the mind around. Huge fan of the author and his podcast. This is a fantastic book !

THE textbook for Hellenistic astrology. Surprisingly, despite how dense it is-- the text is fairly easy to read. The content is challenging, but it is known to be the Bible (TM) for a lot of Hellenistically trained astrologers.

If you're looking for a casual read about astrology, this is not it. There is a reason this book is used for the author's astrology school, and it's not just because he wrote it. It's incredibly detailed, incredibly scholarly...and if you already struggle with nonfiction like I do, you'd hate it.
I've decided not to rate it, because if it wasn't a required textbook, I'd never pick it up by myself, and it therefore seems unfair for me to score the book based on that alone.
For casual reading? My classmates say [a:Demetra George|70047|Demetra George|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1220210901p2/70047.jpg] is really good. (I've never read anything she's written, but there's a reason she's famous!)

An excellent book, the first third is background and history and really helped understanding and contextualising what I know of astrology and better understanding the conversations on the astrology podcast the author hosts. It is an excellent guide and contains many practical examples of Hellenistic techniques. The author's style is clear, concise and easy to follow and this a must have for the astrologer's library.
