I can say that her approach has been maligned by those readers unwilling to keep an open mind. What they don't realize is that an open mind does not necessarily mean a mind ready to be changed. As with any book of doctrine; you end up making up your own mind. That's what is needed her. She is hard to swallow; I admit that; but I always admire a fresh perspective. I plan to buy her Isis Unveiled as well; jus to gain a complete perspective. I do not belive; or believe in; Blavatsky; but she does have an interesting approach. Buy this only if you can adopt my approach. Otherwise she will only make you scoff; or angry.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. love to read themBy LisA HI found two of her books in a rare book shop; love to read them!
