LibraryThing member IonaSThis is an erudite work on the body and its various organs from the occultist's viewpoint.
The author being from an older generation, the book is immaculately well written.
The esoteric material is derived from the works of alchemists/occultists/cabalists etc.,including Parecelsus, Vesalius (the
Show Morefather of modern anatomy)and Robert Fludd, from the Middle Ages or perhaps older as well as from ancient Hindu texts. I found this material extremely dry and difficult to comprehend. (I ordered the book from the library only because I was interested in the chapter on the pineal gland, but then was tempted to read the whole book).
You would need to be an expert on such ancient occult matters, or keenly interested in the subject, to find the book at all readable.
One interesting point that attracted my attention, however, was that original man was reportedly androgynous and that the separation of the sexes took place in "the secondary or further course of tribal history". This fits in with revelations by Shirley Maclaine in her book "Camino" about a significant past life of hers in Atlantis.
Also of interest was the information that reptiles originally had a seeing eye at the back of their head (according to the author this can be confirmed in any geological museum) - in humans this hole has "boned over, and the eye has shrunk up into the so-called pineal gland".
The book includes many drawings and illustrations, but no photos.
To sum up, this book can be described as an overly erudite work on occultist views of the body, and as such will be of little interest to the average reader. Those with a real interest in the subject, however, may find the book fascinating.

As the author of over 150 books, pamphlets, essays, and countless articles, Hall shared what he had learned in his readings and extensive travels. Through his lectures and writings-particularly 1928's The Secret Teaching of All Ages, Hall became a well-known philosopher and expert on mysticism and occultism. He channeled some of this fame and wealth into the creation of the Philosophical Research Society, a Los Angeles-based nonprofit learning center and book collection centered on metaphysics, religion, and the occult. Founded in 1934, the PRS is still in operation today.
" In the 1960s, the design of the mascot costume was updated to give it a more cartoonish and friendly appearance. This version of the mascot, known as "The Wolf," had a big head with a wide grin and was often seen at sporting events and other university functions. In 1986, the mascot underwent another redesign, with the goal of giving it a more realistic and intimidating look. The current version of the NC State mascot, also known as "The Wolf," was introduced. This version features a sleeker, more athletic look, with a focused and determined expression. Over the years, The Wolf has become a beloved symbol of NC State, representing the university's competitive spirit and determination. The mascot can be seen at sporting events, pep rallies, and various other campus activities, rallying the crowd and boosting school spirit. In addition to the costumed mascot, NC State also has a live wolf as a symbol of school pride. Since 2007, the university has maintained a partnership with the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences to care for a live wolf, named "Tuffy." Tuffy serves as an ambassador for the university, making appearances at various events and educating the public about wolves and conservation efforts. Overall, the NC State mascot has evolved over the years to reflect the changing times and preferences of the university community. From a live wolf to a costumed mascot, the NC State mascot is an important and cherished symbol of pride for the university..
