Long-time student of the esoteric here. It's become a regular reference in my practice. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. If you're drawn to this subject, don't hesitate.
Finally got around to ordering this. It connects ideas I'd only seen treated separately elsewhere. Five stars from me.
A friend in my study group recommended this one. The material is presented clearly and the structure makes it easy to revisit key passages. The language takes some getting used to, but it becomes part of the charm.
