Reviews
"A fascinating series of brief glimpses into the lives of some of the major players and their ideas and beliefs. Taken as a whole, this short work offers the reader an easy to understand introduction to traditions and ideas that have informed the world for centuries." - Publishers Weekly "I have a standing rule: I read anything Richard Smoley writes." -Larry Dossey, M.D. "Smoley . . . is adept at unknotting the paradoxes of spiritual traditions and making new connections across centuries and languages." - Library Journal "He is one of the liveliest, most intrepid, and most gifted explorers of the spiritual landscape writing today." -Ptolemy Tompkins, author of Paradise Fever "With scholarly precision, [Smoley] revisits Nostradamus, The Da Vinci Code , Atlantis, Freemasonry, A Course in Miracles , New Thought, and many other famed repositories of "secret wisdom". Fair and clear-eyed, he communicates what his research unearthed in a surprisingly lively style. He speaks honestly to his readers as he recounts, elaborates and debunks. It makes for an intriguing read as well as excellent reference material." -Anna Jedrziewski, Retailing Insight, "A fascinating series of brief glimpses into the lives of some of the major players and their ideas and beliefs.

Synopsis
An illuminating journey into the history of the paranormal and how it has shaped our world. Nostradamus . .. channeling . . . Atlantis . . . divination. Most serious people consider such topics nonsense. But look again. Writing with intellectual verve and a deeply critical mind, religious thinker Richard Smoley explores and reconsiders the supernatural in history and today. We are often conditioned to think of the Judeo-Christian tradition as the only valid, historically accurate, and rational spiritual philosophy. Occultism, magic, and the esoteric are, by contrast, considered illegitimate, delusional, and lacking in intrinsic worth. Supernatural challenges this prejudice, revealing that Western occult traditions are richer and more historically impactful than most of us imagine. The book reveals hidden diamonds and neglected ideas that characterize the magical tradition in the West. For any reader, at any level of experience, who has ever been curious about an arcane subject - from psychical powers to secret societies - here is a book that gives a complete yet precise, critical, yet serious, and always respectful account of topics from the unseen world. Supernatural is a brilliant primer to the occult and magical traditions of the West. 'I have a standing rule- I read anything Richard Smoley writes.' Larry Dossey, M.D. 'Smoley . . . is adept at unknotting the paradoxes of spiritual traditions and making new connections across centuries and languages.' Library Journ al 'He is one of the liveliest, most intrepid, and most gifted explorers of the spiritual landscape writing today.' Ptolemy Tompkins, author of Paradise Fever, This gem-like, concise anthology provides thoughtful people with both an introduction to the paranormal and a reason to take a fresh look at it.
