Came across this title in a footnote and had to track it down. You can tell why this work has endured. It's become a regular reference in my practice. One of my better finds this year.
This has been on my wishlist for months. The language takes some getting used to, but it becomes part of the charm. Highly recommend to serious students.
This edition finally does the material justice. You can tell why this work has endured. Challenging in places, but never needlessly obscure. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted. Still worth having on the shelf.
I collect works on this subject and this is a worthy addition. I found myself reading passages aloud just to sit with them. You can tell why this work has endured. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted.
Not my usual area but wanted to branch out. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. A text you study rather than simply read. The font runs small in the appendices. Solid, if not essential.
My third book from this store and this one might be the best. The text itself is dense but rewarding — you get out what you put in. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. Delivery took a bit longer than quoted. Happy enough with the purchase.
Long-time student of the esoteric here. The symbolism is layered and generous to patient readers. I appreciated how the argument builds steadily from first principles. Solid, if not essential.
