"Never had occultism been presented in such a precise, methodical, clear and scientific way. It took the pen and the brain of one whom occultists consider the most learned of all to bring such a work to a successful conclusion. Barlet has done for Occultism what Ampère did for the classification of the sciences: he gives a precise idea of it in accordance with our modern knowledge, and explains in a few words each of its branches, both from the theoretical and practical point of view. A large table outside the text, as the author knows so well how to construct them, presents the whole of all that constitutes the occult science from which all the others proceed, and which is becoming more and more accredited to scholars throughout the world." Caillet, 736.
