Publisher's Synopsis

This title explores the varied ways in which tarot has influenced culture. Tracing the changing patterns of the deck's use, from game to mysterious oracular device, the author examines tarot's emergence in 15th-century Milan and discusses its later associations with astrology, kabbalah and the Age of Aquarius.
