A friend in my study group recommended this one. I appreciated how the argument builds steadily from first principles. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted.
Long-time student of the esoteric here. Solid binding, decent paper — holds up to heavy use. If you're drawn to this subject, don't hesitate.
I've read excerpts online before, but having the full text is different. Some sections stopped me cold in the best way. Will be gifting a copy to a friend.
First purchase from this shop. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. The font runs small in the appendices. Solid, if not essential.
Not my usual area but wanted to branch out. Every rereading turns up something I missed. My only regret is not ordering it sooner.
Not my usual area but wanted to branch out. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year. The material is presented clearly and the structure makes it easy to revisit key passages. Already eyeing my next order.
This has been on my wishlist for months. Solid binding, decent paper — holds up to heavy use. Already eyeing my next order.
