Advanced Techniques of Astrological Predictions

by K N Rao

An excellent collection of essays. The book has an interesting history. First published in 1991, with a second edition in 1994, K.N. Rao withdrew the book thereafter. This was in the face of numerous requests for a reprint. Suddenly a new printing appeared, but without Rao's name on the front, or the title page. Copyright is now with "Sansthan", or so the book claims. This is a pirate edition, which seems not unknown in India.

In the first chapter of Saadhe-Saati Rao writes, In 1991, single handed I guided, even rewrote many papers & produced Advanced Techniques of Astrological Prediction which has now come out in the market with my name omitted as its editor. Again I excuse them & wish them well. Our sympathies to Mr. Rao.
