This book rules
It’s good through all 700-some pages. Thoroughly entertaining and thought provoking. It sort of acts as a giant reading list. Colin Wilson is sort of a literary DJ. My list is so much longer after reading this

A Volume of knowledge
This tome of ancient knowledge, highly cited historical figures and academic sources, a mixture of science, psychology, occultism and philosophy, has impressed me as a feat fitly described as a "life's work."If allowed to follow the multitude of rabbit trails presented by Mr. Wilson, all of which deftly begin and end in the same poignant thesis, one's mind will explore an adventurous excursion sure to insight a new vista of awareness hitherto unknown.In short, read the book and you will not be disappointed.

A classic book on occultism
A very good overview of Western esoteric themes (now somewhat historically dated), by an author initially quite skeptical of the occult.

Thorough overview of the Occult and its foremost adherents
I read this rather lengthy book cover-to-cover with pleasure and recomment it highly - especially to the dyed-in-the-wool materialists with preconceived negative and/or skeptical attitude(s) toward the so-called paranormal or unusual.

A year's worth of reading in one book
This book is inches thick and all fascinating.The detail in this book is hard to find elsewhere, but here, literally all in one book. I bought it for the chapters on Ouspensky and Gurdieff, which were wonderful, but leafing through other chapters, I know it will make for great reading in the year to come.

A Well Researched Book
This is a well researched look at the Occult. It’s aim appears to convince the sceptic!! For a believer like me....after all in India it’s a part of our basic beliefs....I found it unnecessarily long and repetitive. However it is a very important book and makes some stunning revelations. A definite read for anyone interested in the Occult even if it’s a tad too long!!

pas en français ,
Sûrement un bon livre, mais déçu 😞 que l'on ne préviennent pas qu'il n'était pas en français et seulement en anglais. J'aurais aimé que Amazon puisse me l'échanger
