Special Projects
About This Page
This page is devoted to documenting the on-going discourse on Robert Neale's general theory of magic, a discussion that continues to expand. Interest in Neale's Trilogy along with both his earlier and subsequent commentaries on magic have been percolating in small groups, short seminars, and in less formal dialogues throughout the magic communities, primarily in the United States, and particularly among the small community of friends in the McBride Magic & Mystery consortium of serious followers.
