At the heart of his work is a fascinating discussion of the Great Secret of the alchemists, which he sees as the key to the mystery of the ladder of selves. Wilson presents detailed studies of hauntings, possession and demonic hypnosis, as well as magic, the Kabbalah, and astrology. This experience inspired him to apply this insight to all paranormal phenomena, from precognition to Uri Geller's spoon bending. Through a personal mystical experience, Wilson discovered that human beings consist of a ladder-or hierarchy-of selves, whose upper members may be called upon at will for personal transformation and deep knowledge. The result is 'an extraordinary tour de force' of scholarship ( New Science). Accessories such as CD, codes, toys, and dust jackets may not be included.
