The Occult: The Ultimate Book for Those Who Would Walk with the Gods

Colin Wilson's great classic work is a comprehensive history of mystery

and magic. His genius lies in producing a skilful synthesis of the

available material; clarifying without simplifying, seeing the occult in

the light of reason and reason in the light of the mystical and

paranormal. It is a journey of enlightenment – a wide-ranging survey of

the whole subject and an insightful exploration of Man's latent powers.

Republished two years after the author's death and with a new foreword

by bibliographer Colin Stanley, Wilson brings his own refreshingly

optimistic and stimulating interpretation to the worlds of the

paranormal, the occult and the supernatural.

The Occult is the most interesting, informative and thought-provoking book on the subject I have read Sunday Telegraph
