Good but not great,

This review is from: Encyclopaedia of Occultism: A Compendium of Information on the Occult Sciences, Occult Personalities, Psychic Science, Magic, Demonology, Spiritism.. (Textbook Binding)
This book has a wealth of information on the occult. It includes an alphabetical listing of many obscure topics. For any student of the occult, these entries will be valuable.However: In addition to this, the author fails to give treatment to a few occultist who I believe deserve it. He goes to great lengths detailing the lives of Arab doctors who were alchemists in the 1300's but then fails to even mention Nostradamus or Alister Crowley. If he failed to include these 2 "giants", I believe the corpus of his work is flawed.

A wonderful reference guide to obscure mythological names and terms. Reads much like a dictionary. I have had a copy for years and consider it a necessity.
