I first read this book fifteen years ago. At that time it was the only book of its kind, combining theory with practical applications, diagrams of devices that one could build, and anecdotal information. It has gone from the status of "ground breaking," to "classic." What was put forward fifteen years ago, is still valid. A "must" read for those interested in the construction of energy "wands" and other devices. A worthy addition to the library of those interested in alternative science, the paranormal, and/or the Craft.

I've been looking for this book for years. Very happy to have one and in such good condition.

This book is a prime example of exactly how far someone's imagination can get the best of them. Never have I seen such quakery and speculation in one book. The ideas about the crystal wands is just a scientific view on how magick works. Anyone who has practiced magick knows these ideas without particle fusion reactor concepts. Face it people, it's a wand...

Most of the ideas present in this book are speculative. Theories that seemingly have been cooked up by a man whom must have had way too much time on his hands. A wand can work on the ideas and principles that he lists in a scientific manner, but it really isn't anything more than a scientific point-of-view on how magick works. Magick works independantly of a crystal wand or any other tool for that matter, they are just props.

A wand can be helped by using a quartz crystal, yes and copper does help the process. I know this by experimenting with the rods personally. Anything else in the book is purely hypothetical and without proof or substance. Especially the idea of the transdimensional door. Whether they work is bound to be by personal experience of the operator. Anything can aid someone's personal psychic ability, if used in that manner. But his whole Atlantis Theory as if it were fact is pure speculation and beyond the ideals of both the practice of magick or science.
