Synopsis

Containing extracts from Colin Wilson s key writings on existentialism, consciousness studies, psychology, criminology and the occult, this is an invaluable introduction to one of the late twentieth-century s most incisive and challenging thinkers. It is the only book to collect extracts from Colin Wilson s most important work in one volume, including The Outsider (1956), A Criminal History of Mankind (1984), The New Existentialism (1966), The Occult (1971), New Pathways in Psychology (1972) and Mysteries (1978), as well as three of his novels and many other texts.

This is a fully updated and revised edition of the classic Colin Wilson collection first published in 1985, which contained Colin Wilson s own selection from what he believed to be his key works. It now includes six essential post-1985 essays and chapters chosen by his biographer Colin Stanley and other Colin Wilson experts including Gary Lachman.
