The Occult | Free Book
The acclaimed author of The Outsider explores occult ideas, practices and figures from Kabbalah to
Aleister Crowley in this “fascinating history of magic" (The Washington Post).
Colin Wilson is widely regarded as one of the world’s foremost
experts on occultism. His classic historical study on the subject is
an essential guide to the mind-expanding experiences and discoveries
made by occultists through the centuries—from Heinrich Cornelius
Agrippa to Giacomo Casanova, Helena Blavatsky, Grigori Rasputin, and
many others.
More than a chronicle of people and events, however, Wilson has produced a synthesis of the available material, presenting the occult in the light of reason—and reason in the light of the mystical and paranormal. The result is a wide-ranging survey of the subject that provides a comprehensive history of magic, an insightful exploration of our latent powers, and a revelatory journey of enlightenment.
"This most interesting, informative and thought-provoking book on the subject I have read." —Arthur Calder-Marshall, The Sunday Telegraph
