The works comprised in the following Bibliography have been selected on account of their suitability to supply the reader with a general view of the several branches of occult science. Modern works in English have, for the most part, been preferred to ancient or to foreign authorities, in an endeavour to render the list of service to those approaching the subject for the first time. In many cases Bibliographies have already been appended to the more exhaustive articles, and where this has been done, reference has been made to the article in question.
