About this title

Synopsis

From an occult scholar who "is witty and possessed of a mind that peers around corners . . . a fresh exploration of magic" —Publishers Weekly

From one of the founders of the modern pagan movement comes an examination of psychic phenomena, from ESP to Eastern ritual. In this classic text for students and practitioners of occultism, Isaac Bonewits explores the basic laws of magic, relating them to the natural laws of the universe.

"A book both scholarly and readable." —San Francisco Chronicle

"Groundbreaking and thought provoking, this seminal work of magical theory was perhaps the first logical, rigorously sensible look at magic." —PanGaia
