I just saw this, DG, sorry I haven't answered earlier. I got this book out from my own library, and thanked my lucky stars that I didn't spend money on it.
Okay, to be fair, the book starts out admonishing the reader to put all the other books away and "SAY WHAT YOU SEE", which is a great way to start, IMO. It takes you through an exercise of basically going through your deck, one card at a time and describing what you see in, say, 25 words or less. Then you go back to the start and do it again, only instead of describing, you add more to your *impression* of what the card is saying. Feelings, consequences, the surrounding situation, that sort of thing. It's a very worthwhile exercise and I learnt a great deal about going into a card using it - but the rest of the book - IMO only, mind - is rubbish. It's very superficial, and if you want to use the TArot for anything other than a vaguely enertaining party trick, I think it will "stunt your growth".
By all means, get it out from the library, read it, do the exercises. But remember that it's only one way of approaching the Tarot, and it's a quick-fix way to boot. Don't set yourself into a mould by using that "way" and that one only. It's valuable for what I mentioned above, and that in and of itself makes it worthwhile for a read.
