It contains many influential essays on various magical formula and theorems, essential components of ritual, and general practices (e.g. banishing, consecration, invocation, divination, etc.).This volume is a new edition of Part Three of Crowley's Magnum Opus: Magick, Liber ABA, Book 4 originally published in the winter of 1912-1913 in The Equinox Vol. VIII of Vol. I. The additional three parts: MYTICISM, MAGICK and THELEMA - THE LAW have all been published as separate volumes as part of this series.

The White Goddess is perhaps the finest of Robert Graves's works on the psychological and mythological sources of poetry. In this tapestry of poetic and religious scholarship, Graves explores the stories behind the earliest of European deities—the White Goddess of Birth, Love, and Death—who was worshipped under countless titles. He also uncovers the obscure and mysterious power of "pure poetry" and its peculiar and mythic language.

The myths of six Greek heroes are told in a simple, straightforward style.

Grometstein explains modern physics with enthusiasm, wit and insight. As he presents the usual milestones in the history of modern physics, his central focus is the historical debate regarding the nature of light: is it a particle or is it a wave? This book will be read by generations of students in physical science who seek a well written discussion of these important issues. Grometstein includes material which is quite recent, thus making the present volume particularly useful.
