esoteric

This book is as about as esoteric as can get on Ancient Egypt, as can be seen by one of the chapter headings 'The Philosophy of the Mysteries'. The various Ancient Egyptian texts are all used to varying degrees to support the author's interpretations. Magic, the ka and ba, and the extent of Ancient Egypt's influence on the eastern Mediterranean lands are among the subjects discussed. This book, with black and white illustrations, is definitely for the open-minded.
