Long-time student of the esoteric here. It reads better in small doses — a chapter at a time with notes. Challenging in places, but never needlessly obscure. It assumes more background than a beginner might have. Good, with the caveats above.
My book club chose this last month. The historical context alone makes it worth the price. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
Been hunting for a decent copy of this text for ages. Some chapters demand a slow, careful read, and that's exactly the point. A keeper.
I've read excerpts online before, but having the full text is different. It connects ideas I'd only seen treated separately elsewhere. Plenty of passages worth underlining; my copy is already full of margin notes. Will be gifting a copy to a friend.
Exactly what I was looking for. Solid binding, decent paper — holds up to heavy use. Recommended if you're ready to do the work.
