I bought these for my collection, but also have the paperback version I use for study. And of course book four will complete the set if one so desires which is also an excellent read. Review: Like an Ancient Spirituality 101 textbook - (I am new to the classics, so my review may not be helpful for those who are well versed in them. ) Amazing. This is like a textbook for a university-level Ancient Spirituality 101 course. The Three Books provide a high-level overview of the Spiritual beliefs of the ancients from Plato to Aristotle to the Egyptians and so on. The books provide practical instructions, logic, explantaions. My world has opened up! Purdue does a stellar job providing sources for as much of the data and instructions as possible. His hard work in producing this translation and reference allows me to find the ancient or archaic referenced book(s) on a topic so that I may go deeper. My library is now becoming full of the great minds whom I was led to believe were nothing more than stodgy philosphers; I never realized until this book came along how *spiritual* and practical Plato, Aristotle, etc were! And their knowledge & spirituality were very much based on logic and reason, something that has been removed from modern-day spirituality (from my personal observation and to my chagrin). As one anonymous poster wrote: Modern-day spirituality books are like 5th-grade science books compared to this book being like an intro to biochemistry textbook. TIP: Bookmark an etymology dictionary website to read this. Many words used by Agrippa/Purdue do not have the same modern-day meanings. Example: 'Accidents' Modern meaning: an unfortunate, unforeseen event Aristotle (and thus Agrippa/Purdue) used 'accident' in a philosophical sense to describe "distinction between the essential and accidental properties of a thing. For example, a chair can be made of wood or metal, but this is accidental to its being a chair: that is, it is still a chair regardless of the material from which it is made." (Wikipedia) Therefore all of our individual Accidents makes us *unique* and who we are. But we're still human. Do you see what I mean about how this book is expanding my world? I don't know that I'll ever buy a modern spirituality book again. Thank you for your hard work, Purdue. Friends have already ordered their copy as well. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #94,733 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #38 in Hermetism & Rosicrucianism #171 in New Age Mysticism (Books) #214 in Occultism | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 239 Reviews | ## Images ![Three Books of Occult Philosophy - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81L2cxcI9LL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ For those that seek esoteric knowledge and a deeper understanding of the world around us. *by C***. on November 1, 2025* For those that study the Occult arts, these books are key to ones foundational understanding of all the various aspects occultism in order to become intimately familiar with the spiritual, practical and esoteric side of the Occult.

The corrections to questionable translations found in previous editions, also listed in the footnotes, are a philological gift to casual readers and serious scholars alike! If you can own only one version of Agrippa's work in English, I would recommend this one. ## Frequently Bought Together - Three Books of Occult Philosophy - The Golden Dawn: The Original Account of the Teachings, Rites, and Ceremonies of the Hermetic Order - The Kybalion: Centenary Edition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/281604325-three-books-of-occult-philosophy](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/281604325-three-books-of-occult-philosophy) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
