GREAT BOOK.

"The absence of contaminating traces either of condescension or of credulousness give this absorbing volume a special authority and place on the shelves of any reader or any library where the history of modern thoughts is relevant." - Scientific American

"A remarkable summary and analysis of the five systems of esoteric science so influential in the Renaissance." - Milton Quarterly

"A magnificent job of tying together a vast number of diverse sources into a unified whole . . . engrossing in its entirety." -The Sciences
