Real Magic: An Introductory Treatise on the Basic Principles of Yellow Light by Isaac Bonewits

Isaac Bonewits examines the principles behind magical thinking and practice in Real Magic. His discussion ranges from extrasensory perception to ritual, asking how occultists understand the forces and patterns they believe are at work.

A work of magical theory rather than a simple recipe book, it is aimed at students and practitioners interested in the intellectual framework of occultism. Bonewits's proposed laws of magic belong to his interpretation of the subject and should not be confused with experimentally established laws of science.
