Colleagues often ask me why I wrote this unusual book. At first,it was simply so I could sleep at night. It was a way to marshal theextraordinary facts and histories that constantly rotated in my mind andbecame graphically alive at bedtime! Now I think my reason is to restore,in a humble way, richness to the mystery tradition at a time when the oldarts of the philosopher are all but lost.There are many paths to the mysteries. The most predominantorganizations in western societies are usually composed of people wemight call literalists. They would not like the more accurate label of antiphilosophers.Literalists believe their traditional histories are unique,explain everything and provide enough wisdom to make the rest ofcivilization irrelevant.

I read it at a breakneck pace and was left almost dizzy by the quality of the writing and the almost unbelievable research marshaled by the author. This is a book that all interested in the history of human thought should read - you might just look at the world and at yourself in a slightly different way. The cover shows a wondrous diamond covered figure of St. George and the dragon. The book is just as dazzling. ( )
