A young mage of Chaos, disillusioned with the world, decides to plunge into a journey of self-knowledge called 'Breaking the Ego', which provides for an exchange of beliefs, 'follow and believe the contrary of your convictions.' But in this process, she didn't expect to find passion in the arms of a young man from the elite of her hometown. Now will she be able to stay true to the advanced magical practice she has decided to initiate despite her heart's appeals. How can she reconcile her journey of inner discovery with a feeling that drives her away from her search for her true self? This second-revised edition of Crowley's magnum opus features new, more legible typesetting, text corrections based on a previously unseen corrected proof, and the previously unpublished Liber Testis Testitudinis.

Magick is the fundamental textbook of modern magick in the New on. It also has invaluable teachings for students of Yoga and meditation.

Crowley`s own revelation, The Book of the Law , is then treated as a case study, with an autobiographical study of events leading to its reception.
