Description: From the back: "To dowse," says the author of this definitive study of the divining art, "is to search with the aid of a hand-held instrument such as a forked stick or a pendular bob on the end of a string - for anything: subterranean water flowing in a narrow under-ground fissure, a pool of oil or a vein of mineral ore, a buried sewer pipe or electrical cable, an airplane downed in a mountain wilderness, a disabled ship helplessly adrift in a gale, a lost wallet or dog, a missing person, perhaps a buried treasure." Co-author of The Secret Life of Plants, Christopher Bird has filled this book with exciting, documented stories, most of them illustrated with photographs, and diagrams. It provides a complete history of the art of dowsing around the world and discusses in detail the various existing theories attempting to explain this extraordinary phenomenon. This newly-revised edition brings even more information to an already authoritative text. The Divining Hand: The 500-Year-Old Mystery of Dowsing is sure to become a classic in its field.
