This book superbly and clearly summarizes many of the intrinsic characteristic truths of ancient and medieval wordlviews which occultism and atheism under the cover of modern science and artificial respectability has sought to annihilate from man's knowledge and understanding.  Knowledge of the themes discussed in this book is a worthwhile asset to anyone interested in a traditional flat earth model of the cosmos.

Frances Yates has written some of the most informative books on the history of the occult (including the origins of modern so-called science) and its war against truth and genuine scientific tradition in the Elizabethan and Renaissance eras.  Frances Yates is not a partisan against modern science, but her histories are objective and do not hide the strong ties of occultism with modern so-called science.
