Description
What is Hermeticism? How do things above reflect things below? Who wrote the mysterious Emerald Tablet? Why did its short text influence so many of the greatest thinkers of the past 1500 years. In this illuminating pocket book, Professor Kenneth Davis opens the door to the Way of Hermes, its history, ideas and practical methods of connecting with the light and mind of the Cosmos, so that you too can see our everyday world for the imaginary construct it really is.
