Well, there's a lot of bullshit in this book.

But that doesn't mean that I want to debunk it completely. It is very well written and contains many spells, charms and traditions from many "magical" ancient cultures around the world.

The thing about a book like this is you can't take it too seriously. You can't sit down with the book and all the ingredients and expect that after doing each one step by step your life is suddenly going to change and be so much better and easier. I am afraid you will be pretty disappointed. Life can't be solved through recipes and this book does make this clear. These are not answers to all your problems, but if you (like me) want to believe that everything isn't science and that there still is some magic left in the world, then this book is a nice little treat!
