"Gnostic Philosophy: From Ancient Persia to Modern Times" by Tobias Churton
"An extensive examination of the history of gnosticism and how its philosophy has influenced the Western esoteric tradition • Explains how the Gnostic understanding of self-realization is embodied in the esoteric traditions of the Rosicrucians and Freemasons • Explores how gnosticism continues to influence contemporary spirituality • Shows gnosticism to be a philosophical key that helps spiritual seekers "remember" their higher selves Gnosticism was a contemporary of early Christianity, and its demise can be traced to Christianity's efforts to silence its teachings.

With the flavor of fiction, yet with its foundation in fact, The Psychic Battlefield is the complete history of the use of man’s extrasensory powers in search of the information needed to win wars—hot and cold. The Psychic Battlefield spans the five-thousand-year history of ESPionage, from the attempted overthrow of the Pharaoh Rameses by magic to the CIA’s use of military-trained psychics during the Cold War.
