About the author:
Stephen Skinner graduated from Sydney University in Australia, and worked as a geography lecturer before discovering feng shui in the 1970s. His first book, The Living Earth Manual of Feng Shui, helped spark contemporary Western interest in the subject at a time when most information on feng shui was in Chinese. In 1998, he launched the world's first, and now biggest, feng shui magazine, Feng Shui for Modern Living. A year later, he followed it up with the first London International Feng Shui Conference. Skinner lives in London but escapes to the mystical East as often as possible.
