Hi
I am reading Wanda Sellar's Intro to Mecical Astrology and in her footnotes she refers to " ibid " . Anyone able to enlighten me to as to what or whom she is refering.In her list of references in the back of the book it is not listed.It is a large work as one footnote has "ibid p 918."
So far I really like this book.I am in the holistic health field and have been disappointed in most new books written on the subject but this will be the one I will definitly refer to.
Thanks for the review Deb
Blessings

Ibid (Latin, short for ibidem, "the same place") is the term used to provide an endnote or footnote citation or reference for a source that was cited in the preceding endnote or footnote.

Hi
Thankyou Martin for your reply and saving me the embarrassment of trying to order a work by ibid !
