The 30th Anniversary of the Classic Guide to Thelema, Aleister Crowley’s Spiritual System of Ritual Magick, with a New Introduction by the Author . This is the perfect introductory text for readers who wonder what the works—rather than the myth—of Aleister Crowley are all about. DuQuette begins by dispatching some of the myths that have surrounded Crowley’s life and legend. He then explores the practice of rituals themselves, unpacking Crowley’s often opaque writing and offering his own commentary. Step by step, and in plain English, he presents a course of study with examples of rituals and explanations of their significance. DuQuette also includes a survey of many of Crowley’s original works with an extensive bibliography and endnotes. Formerly titled The Magick of Thelema, then released in a revised edition published in 2003, this Weiser Classics edition includes a new introduction by the author.

I’m a big fan of LMD, I’ve read most of his books and have given them all 5 stars including this one. I’m also a big fan or Crowley, but this has some misleading info I feel I need to correct, for the sake of truth.First, in the FAQ section about Crowley, it asks, “was he a black magician?” and then claims he was not. Of course he wasn’t devoted to just harmful magic, who is? But it’s well known that he cursed many people. Curses are definitely black magic, and Crowley was a big fan of them. Next in the “did he perform or advocate human sacrifice” question it tells of some animal sacrifices, but curiously leaves out the cat and goat at the abbey of thelema... and the frog.These things don’t subtract from his esoteric genius of course, but I think it’s important to know the facts of the matter. Crowley could be quite sadistic and this is absolute fact which I’m sure Lon is aware of.So that’s my only gripe for this book. Other than that I highly recommend it to anyone interested in these things.
