Work detailsReal Magic: An Introductory Treatise on the Basic Principles of Yellow Magic by Isaac Bonewits (1971)
None. The first book to scientifically state the "laws" of magic from a cross-cultural stance. Without this book, most of current magical theory would be very different. Read this quite a while back, but I found it very entertaining and informative. His way of thinking about magic and energy appeals to me a great deal, as it strokes the scientific side of my nature and makes it easier for me to get into the magical mindset. That said, it was dry sometimes, and people who have a dogmatic view of religion or magic probably won't like it. Review located at http://lupabitch.wordpress.com/2006/12/30/real-magic-isaac-bonewits/ A wonderful classic that should be part of every pagan's library. The first couple of chapters are a useful introduction to some concepts, but the rest is pretty flaky. no reviews | add a review
