Synopsis

In a universe where mind has power over matter—in a world where conventional, common-sense wisdom cannot help us achieve our highest desires or escape our deepest fears—we need to look to the wisdom of the ancients.In The Heretic’s Handbook, the internationally bestselling author of The Secret History of the World has collected and codified ancient, secret wisdom from around the world, formulating a complete philosophy on how to live a happy and successful life. An acclaimed author and public speaker, Black shows how this body of knowledge has been declared ‘heretical’ both by the established church and by today’s atheistic intellectual elite.Finally, he outlines in the clearest terms possible the supernatural laws that govern our universe, and describes rules for living that take us beyond consensual thought, rules that may at first seem crazy, even dangerous, but which contain the secrets for achieving success, happiness and a higher state of being.

Goodreads review by Russell Avis

Valid, believable points. This is written to be understood, if you think about what is said, it offers an alternative, an alternative to staunch religious, typecast, pigeon holed, theology and likewise it offers an alternative to atheism in its fullest sense. It might, nay, it probably won't resonate......more

Goodreads review by Anil

"Everything may seem on the surface to run according to natural laws, but at a deeper level there are super natural forces that modify them": This is the essence of the book that attempts to counter what the atheists, like Richard Dawkins , have attempted to prove in their offerings. However, Black......more

Goodreads review by Bill

Some interesting history, but one would have to go much deeper than this to go beyond the "woo woo" of this metaphysics. Recommended only for neophytes needing an inexpensive survey for the Kindle. Many references and notes are a plus.......more
