Bought this as a gift for my sister and ended up ordering a second copy for myself. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions. The symbolism is layered and generous to patient readers. Definitely recommend.
Haseman succeeds in demystifying the arcane, providing a comprehensive workshop for the aspiring mystic. The text prioritizes practical application, making it highly accessible for beginners eager to start immediately. However, this approachability means it may feel too simplistic for seasoned practitioners or those seeking deep historical rigor. It is not suited for readers who prefer dense academic theory or complex ceremonial magic systems over hands-on exercises. For the true beginner, however, its warmth and clarity are invaluable assets that encourage continued exploration without overwhelming the new student.
