Religion, Science, and Magic cover

This collection presents ten essays that examine the distinction between `true religion' and magic in Christianity and Judaism. Topics covered include Babylonian witchcraft, Jesus the Magician, magic in Hassidism and Kabbalah, and magic in Anglo-Saxon England.

This book is both interesting and a valuable contribution to the study of magic in its relationship to learning. * The Heythrop Journal *
