New Thought Editorial Review
**** "Modern Occultism: History, Theory, and Practice" by Mitch Horowitz is a compelling and well-researched exploration of the intricate landscape of occult practices and their historical significance. Horowitz, a historian with a deep appreciation for occult traditions, adeptly balances scholarly rigor with engaging storytelling. This book adeptly expands upon the themes presented in his earlier work, "Occult America," offering a more global perspective on the evolution of esoteric practices from ancient Hermeticism to modern movements. Readers are drawn into the historical narrative through Horowitz's clear and insightful chronological framework, which captures the impact of occultism on various facets of society, including art and politics. His respectful treatment of a subject often marred by skepticism allows for a richer understanding of the complexities involved. Through illuminating details like Theosophy's influence on Western practices and Carl Jung's intriguing historical role, the text serves not only as an academic resource but also as a source of personal revelation. Horowitz's engaging Prose transforms what could be a challenging read into a stimulating journey, appealing to both novices and seasoned practitioners alike. His ability to weave philosophical threads throughout historical accounts enriches the reader's experience, creating an immersive narrative that connects past operations of occultism to contemporary practices. The book concludes by situating occultism in the present day, making it particularly relevant for modern audiences. Overall, "Modern Occultism" stands out as a significant contribution to the understanding of occult history and its continuing impact on today’s cultural landscape. **
