I believe this is a good start if you are new to the world of quantum physics and using it in magic, and your magical practice will GREATLY benefit from this work. This book gives a good deal of recipees and how to's to really help get you started on the path and can give you knowledge that it takes many magical practitioners YEARS to learn.

I really enjoyed reading the stories and examples of how Silver put quantum physics to work for her and those around her. I feel that giving personal stories like this for people who are trying to wrap their hands around a system of magic really helps them understand some of the things it can do for them.

Using Quantum physics is something that some people really consider "new age fluff", however, if taken seriously, it can be a powerful system to work magic to affect your daily life and routine.

You see a lot of tid-bits including a Quantum Physics Healing ritual -- that you can use in a group setting, or by yourself and ideas on how to set up a working area for this type of magic, you will find meditations and exercises using Astrology, great personal stories that will help you become better at magic, recipees for various stuff -- like "black salt", herbal formulas, cleansing formulas and various working for manifestation! This book can help you achieve SUCCESS in your workings. I can't recommend this book enough!

Overall, an excellent book by an excellent author! Highly recommened.

Because of the mixed reviews this book got and because I didn't want to spend $15 on a book I might not like (even though I like Silver Ravenwolf), I bought it used. I got it for $.75 plus shipping cost, so I saved $10 on it.

I don't agree with everything this book says, but I absolutely love the different meditations. I love meditation and being able to use my mind, therefore, this book is perfect for me.

Silver Ravenwolf means well, she would benefit with a ghost writer. She always has great fanfare, yet she cannot make her work fly. Like a good kite, it needs a long tail. Perhaps she should spend more time on her work. Llewellyn has a habit of aiming for a younger audience. The "Teen Witch" phenomenon has passed. These "witches" are adults now, she would benefit by speaking to them as such. Silver gets a little "preachy" at times. This happens to be one of those times. About a third of way through, I couldnt finish this. Therfore, my review is a little unfair. I periodically purchase her "book of the year".

She should take a break, quality not quantity should be her main goal. I understand this is not a goldmine market. Yet to be a good teacher is more important. All witches are important, none are the same! That is the whole point of the western tradition. Quantum physics are a springboard for all magic.

I think this may be her best so far. If you find yourself wandering along the edge of physics, metaphysics, and how it all works, this is a book to check out. I think it was Arthur C Clarke who said that a sufficiently advanced technology would appear as magic to those not as advanced. Here's your chance to understand your practices in more depth.

I am a neopagan who also loves science. Her explanation of "quantum physics," however, owes more to the ridiculous line of "quantum woo" that has been peddled for the last 30 years than to real quantum physics. Any physicist worth her/his salt would laugh at the way it is used in this book. On the other hand, she grossly oversimplifies the realities of neopaganism for her neopagan audience. She ends up talking down to both groups without knowing what she is actually talking about.

If I had to choose only ONE magickal book above all the others I own--and there are many--this is IT! I've always thoroughly enjoyed and respected Ms. RavenWolf's writings; but this book is absolutely THE BEST even for those who've held differing thoughts about her books. THIS is the one that will change your minds! A must-have!
