All in all, it's an interesting book that contains a lot of information on all things magic. It gives the historical background of the subjects discussed, and tries to be as complete as it can with the matters it explains. For the most part, I enjoyed it. Now and then, it was tough to get through as the book and part of its subjects are quite sexist; all things male are good, all things female are bad. It also seems to view women as usable objects..
