Today we turn to the Internet for our daily dose of kooks and indescribable oddities, but once, those seeking to be amused by the incoherent ramblings of never-to-be-recognized prophets of the weird had to look to books. Professing to "take up where the text-books leave off" and "lay bare many hitherto unrevealed secrets," this supremely odd book, first published in 1922, announces the twelve "bodies" and ten "senses" of Mankind, and describes how the body and mind will be put to use in a coming war between the good and generous wise Tasmuan Race of beings-which may be humans themselves; all is not clear-with the evil and destructive Eslarians, whose souls "transmigrated" into Earthly bodies and brought hate to the world. Combining numerology, astrology, and other mysterious "ologies," this unique and highly amusing work is sure to baffle and entertain readers of all persuasions. LAUREL MILLER is also the author of "Kabbalistic Numerology" and "The Eye of Id."
