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

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.

Just started reading and already know I won’t be disappointed. Colin Wilson makes compelling books and from what I read so far this might be his magnum opus so I’m guessing this will be a good one. It takes me some time to get into a book as I’m not much of a reader but when I get around to reading this book is on the top of my list to read.

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

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

Bought this for my cousin in prison. He seems to like it.

Amazing book, the information it contains is solid without exagerations and the approach to the subject is balanced and cautious

Great book ...I am still reading and can not have enough of it .
