“With her book, Feng Shui for Architecture, Dr. Mainini has finally filled a gap. She has taken the rather complicated subject of Feng Shui as it applies to architecture and she has successfully laid out a step-by-step guide to understanding the mysteries of this ancient art. She has done an exemplary job of keeping this very complicated subject clear and concise for the layperson “.

“Dr. Mainini, thank you very much for writing your book. It is very easy to understand. An excellent source book for guiding projects. My husband and I are in the home building business, so we appreciate the advice having spent much time studying the subject material before finding your book. You have dedicated your life's work to a vocation that is going to be much more appreciated in the years to come. Keeping Feng Shui alive and modernizing its practice to fit contemporary society's awareness of their metaphysical presence on the earth is honorable. It is an expression of your love for humanity and the whole earth. Again, Thank you.”

“The subject of Feng Shui is naturally interesting and intriguing, so to have a book that concisely explains the ideas and history so thoroughly is a valuable find. Dr. Mainini’s book is that find.
Feng Shui for Architecture makes an excellent text and resource book as well as teaching guide because it is clear, informative and easy to read. It has such a natural manner of expression that it is as if the author is explaining the material verbally to the reader.
The book provides historical background and theory for Feng Shui and integrates other related practices. The theories are presented in a straight-forward manner, fully developed with thorough explanations, and visually clarified with pictures, diagrams and charts, then translated into specific practical instruction.
This book would be extremely helpful for designers and architects, as well as a strong reference resource for public and private libraries.”
