Format:Paperback
Eliphas Levi has written a confused yet interesting account of magical theory in Transendental Magic but anyone seeking practical insight would be well advised to look elsewhere, for example Crowley's Theory and Practice, or any of Dion Fortune's works.

Theory is fascinating, ritual is vague
2 Aug 2000
Format:Paperback
Levi is extremely eloquent, clear, penetrating, and evocative in his writing of theory. Unfortunately, although his ritual is often sound, he does not write it with the same precision of expression or fullness of explanation, which could lead to confusion or unintended results.

Worthwhile read for Initiate and Adept alike
28 Mar 2000
Format:Paperback
The serious magician knows immediately that this book will be a garden of delights, as Eliphas Levi weaves his knowledge of transcendant magic into the mind of the reader right from the introduction. If you are a serious student of the occult sciences you cannot afford to pass this book by.
