A treasure trove with a minor flaw
We've been waiting for a translation of this book for years, and here it is at last. Overall, it's superb. The text is very clear and usable. Only thing, some of the images of the more complex talismans have been poorly reproduced. It's a tradition based upon exact spelling and use of letters, and in some places it's impossible to tell which letters are being used. It would be even worse for a non-Arabic reader. That's a very small problem, though. The book is wonderful. An absolute treasure trove!
