    Understanding the occult : fragmentation and repair of the self

    Gay, Volney Patrick
    : http://hdl.handle.net/1803/1719
    : 1989

    Abstract

    In this book I offer a causal explanation for occult beliefs. I try to show what events in a person's live typically precede the occult moment and why the occult moment is so important to that person's sense of herself or himself. I do not attempt to judge the truth of occult beliefs: I try to show when they arise and what work they perform.
