More about the book

Throughout the ages and across the world in many shapes and guises, as healers, mystics and literary figures, wizards have played an important part in real-life communities and in the imagination of many cultures. Often illuminating the future and explaining the past, wizards have always had a very powerful role. This text traces the origins and legends of wizards, charting their myriad expressions through time and across cultures. It also includes a number of meditations and practices at the end of each chapter that enable us to make use of some of the legendary skills of the wizard.
