"MaryAnn Russell's stated purpose in "The Feng Shui Factor" is to demystify the Eastern Art and make it useful for Western readers.

Russell's advice on exterior feng shui, such as less desirable locations and house shapes, may benefit those serious about the practice who are looking for a home. Feng Shui Expert

Placed toward the center, "The Feng Shui Factor" (symbolizing a balanced view, perhaps?) was a bit of wisdom from the author: Correcting feng shui in your home is just one factor in improving one area of your life. Such corrections can be a catalyst for improvement by compelling you to take action toward change. Now that I can buy."
By Amy Hubbard, LA Times Staff Writer

"I have read literally dozens of books about feng shui. One of the things anyone finds after reading more than two or three books on the subject is that there are a lot of contradictions. This often leads to a lot of confusion. In MaryAnn's book, "The Feng Shui Factor", she clears up a lot of this confusion by getting to what the essence of feng shui is and how to incorporate good feng shui in your environment. This is clearly a case where a simpler approach is better than the many more complex and sometimes limiting approaches. By limiting, I mean those approaches that are couched in fear and superstition. MaryAnn has done an excellent job of demystifying a very complex subject, making it understandable and relatively easy to implement the basic principles into one's home or business."

"As a skeptic by nature and trade I was pleasantly surprised when I read this useful and informative book. Ms. Russell sets forth the concepts and principles of feng Shui in a concise and understandable way. While I believe that Feng Shui is more art than science there is much useful information here. The reader will learn to make ones living space a more interesting and appealing place to be. Since for the foreseeable future the home buying and selling situation in this country is going to be extremely competitive I strongly believe that folks in that area of activity should read this book for the invaluable information it provides about enhancing the appeal,live ability and presentation of a home. This book is so useful that my spouse refuses to part with our copy and has it on her reference shelf. I had to order another copy to circulate among our grown daughters. Try it. You will like it."
Richard N. Parslow, Judge Retired

"The author engages the reader from the start. She obviously has a comprehensive understanding of how energy moves through space. This clarity helps the reader identify ways to not only evaluate one's environment, but also to achieve and sustain a supportive energetic quality within it. Confusion and contradiction fall away as readers have the opportunity to broaden their understanding of a complex and sometimes misunderstood art and science. You will find yourself seeing your environment through new eyes. Very well done."
Elaine Hogue, EnerChi Matters Consultant

"Never quite understood what Feng Shui was all about. After reading this book I have a better understanding of why it is important to pay attention to our surroundings and how we can create better living conditions by applying the knowledge shared in this book by the author. Nicely done."
