The Fourth Book of Occult Philosophy is here published in a new edition by Stephen Skinner; it is a volume of six works, comprising:
 
Henry Cornelius Agrippa's Of Magical Ceremonies, which deals with invoking spirits, demons, angels and other 'spiritual creatures';
Peter De Abano's Heptameron, an important grimoire of the sixteenth century, which focuses on the Angels of the days of the week;
The Isagoge of Georg Villinganus which, structured in the form of a conversation between the mythical twins Castor and Pollux, allowed the author to express differing and sometimes controversial viewpoints on the nature of spirits;
The Arbatel of Magick, which first appeared in Basel in 1575, and was an influence on the work of John Dee;
Agrippa's Of Geomancy;
Gerard of Cremona's Of Astronomical Geomancy, which has a completely different approach to the generation of geomantic figures than that used in books which derive from the Golden Dawn.
 
These six works are introduced, edited and annotated by Stephen Skinner, with translations into English by Robert Turner. This collection of these key texts, together with the learned commentaries, is of inestimable value to scholars and practitioners alike.
