History, Astrology Techniques, Signs and Planets, Charts and Tables

By: Derek Parker,Julia Parker

The ancient art of astrology continues to fascinate. In this highly illustrated guide, bestselling authors Derek and Julia Parker bring the wisdom of the heavens to every aspect of your life. Using a unique visual style, this comprehensive guide separates "real" astrology from trendy, tabloid-style pieces, and shows how to make the best use of the age-old technique. In addition to practical advice, Astrology also traces the history of the practice, how the art has been employed in both science and religion, and reveals its importance throughout the ages. This informative manual explains how to recognize the key characteristics of all the signs of the Zodiac Astrological tables, details the positions of the planets from 1931 through 2010, showing you how to draw up your own and other people's birth charts to interpret the influence of the planets and moon on your life, character, and relationships. Accessible for complete beginners, while still being informative enough for those with an established interest in the subject, this guide teaches you how to unlock incredible insights into your personality and help unleash your potential.

Arthur Phillip

Australia's First Governor

By: Derek Parker

Over the two centuries since his appointment, commentators have been as surprised at the choice of Arthur Phillip as some were at the time (the First Lord of the Admiralty, to mention only the most distinguished critic). But was it really so surprising? What did the Home Office and the Admiralty expect of a man who was to navigate a fleet to the antipodes, and when he got it there unload its cargo of unregenerate criminals and forge them into some sort of a working colony? Apart from the necessary seamanship, they needed a man with a cool head who understood men and how to control them, a man capable of governing himself, possessed of calm and understanding and a thorough grasp of reality, with complete loyalty to the Crown and Government and a determination to plan and carry through an enterprise unlike any other within living memory. Fortunately, there were one or two men at the Admiralty who understood that Arthur Phillip possessed all these credentials. This new biography covers Phillip's whole life, but has a particular focus on his selection for the role of Governor, the preparation of the first fleet, the journey from England, the establishment of the colony and Phillip's governorship.

Conversations with Casanova

A Fictional Dialogue Based on Biographical Facts

By: Derek Parker

Imagined by one of the world's leading experts on Casanova, this fictionalised conversation presents the essential biography of history's most famous lover. A quiet chat with Casanova turns into a catalogue of racy encounters set in 18th-century Venice and other cities ... and we can even ask questions! You'll find out just how he got himself both in and out of some extremely sticky situations, from debt and imprisonment, to confrontations with jealous husbands and even heartbreak. Renowned as a great lover and seducer, Casanova was far more than a bed hopping rake. He founded the world's first national lottery, discussed theories of taxation with Frederick the Great, debated the merits of the Gregorian calendar with Catherine the Great, talked theology with Pope Clement XIII, lectured on Horace and Homer, and gave a public recital of his own poem on the Passion of the Christ. He was also an accomplished swindler, an extraordinary wit, a brilliant philosopher, a formidable duellist, and a notable spy. The impressive scale of Casanova's many gifts - and vices - is brought brilliantly to life in this innovative biography. A concise biographical essay is followed by a scintillating dialogue that is as historically rigorous as it is entertaining. As Dita Von Teese says in her Foreword: "In my most amorous fantasies, I spend languid days and glittering nights with a true 'Casanova'-- a man with a heartfelt passion for life, a thirst for knowledge and adventure, and of course a lust for refined romance." Be seduced by this brilliant book.
