Stephen Mace's classic text -- A technique for creating individual systems of sorcery, based upon the writings of Austin Osman Spare, Aleister Crowley and the Great Mage, Abramelin, these blended together and augmented by the personal researches of the author. 

"This essay offers a technique that individuals can use to create their own systems of sorcery, systems precisely tailored to fit their own unconscious minds. By following its instructions, the reader can cause his or her subliminal self to design its own symbols to represent the powers that lie within it. The result will be what is essentially a personal language of power, one that has meaning only for his or her self, but full of potency because it is his or her own soul's way of expressing itself." - Stephen Mace

Condition : Very Good. Some light discolouration to edge of page block and a light crease to top right corner of page block on several pages. A slight crease to cover. The tape binding on the spine is cracked at the bottom one the spine, but the book remains tight, clean and unmarked internally. A very nice example of this very rare self-published edition from 1984.
