Customer Reviews

Informative and Interesting

This book is informative and very interesting. You can use it for reference or just pick it up and read various parts.

Good basic information

This book is good for non psychics looking for information on the subject as well as those with psychic abilities that want a quick reference. The best of its type that I have seen.

Excellent Informational guide!

I received this book approximately a year ago. At first I proceeded to look up, just certain points of interests. I then decided to start from the beginning of this book and start reading it from cover to cover. I realized, that although I know a great deal about clairvoyance, channeling, crystals, and so on, (being an intuitive archangel card reader, dream interpreter, and reiki master-teacher practitioner, there is still a ton to learn. I find this encyclopedia fun, informative, and facinating! Five stars and then some!

Concise and Relevant Information

Raymond Buckland has done it once again this wonderful encyclopedia. The information is clear and concise and organized in a way that it is quite simple to locate any specific topic you may be delving into. I would not consider this a book to sit down and read from cover to cover, it is as stated, an encyclopedia and therefore is better used as an encylopedia. Not to mention the fact that as an encyclopedia it is written as fact and I for one find it to be enlightening. I highly recommend this book as a plethora of vital information regarding it's well descriptive title. Excellent. Kudos once again to Raymond Buckland.
