From the Back Cover

Perhaps the first comprehensive exploration of the ancient art of crystal gazing ever written--and still considered the best--this intriguing 1924 volume roams the history of civilization, from Greece and Rome to modern Europe to aboriginal Australia, to gather fascinating commonalities in the global practice of "scrying." Besterman, a student of the paranormal, discusses:

* scrying in legend and tradition * scrying in literature * the procedures of scrying * related phenomena: automatic writing, hauntings, and multiple personalities * why scrying works * and more.

Also available from Cosimo Classics: Besterman's A Dictionary of Theosophy.
