A History of Western Astrology Volume I by Nicholas Campion
Focusing on its magical and apocalyptic movements and use in everyday life throughout history, this title charts Western astrology from 30,000 BCE up to the 17th century. It examines the foundations of a major feature of popular culture in the contemporary west, and explores the relationship between astrology and religion, and magic and science.
"It shines light on the heaven for scholars and amateurs alike; its narrative is dense but rich, readable and suggestive" Literary Review"
