A striking 1970s edition of Studies in Occultism by H. P. Blavatsky, published as part of The Dennis Wheatley Library of the Occult. Originally drawn from articles Blavatsky wrote for Lucifer between 1887 and 1891, this collection explores practical occultism, hypnotism, psychic phenomena, astral bodies, esoteric Christianity, and the nature of the inner self. This Sphere Books edition features a wonderfully dramatic red cover with Blavatsky's portrait surrounded by astrological symbols.
