Colin Wilson's great classic work is a comprehensive history of mystery
and magic. His genius lies in producing a skilful synthesis of the
available material; clarifying without simplifying, seeing the occult in
the light of reason and reason in the light of the mystical and
paranormal. It is a journey of enlightenment – a wide-ranging survey of
the whole subject and an insightful exploration of Man's latent powers.
Republished two years after the author's death and with a new foreword
by bibliographer Colin Stanley, Wilson brings his own refreshingly
optimistic and stimulating interpretation to the worlds of the
paranormal, the occult and the supernatural.
The Occult is the most interesting, informative and thought-provoking book on the subject I have read Sunday Telegraph
