"An unsparing indictment of modern society and politics. Evola rises above the usual dichotomies of left and right, liberal and conservative, through a trenchant critique of the metaphysics that lies at the base of modern values, challenging us to reconnect our lives and our institutions to the timeless spiritual standard that guided our ancestors." Glenn A. Magee, author of Hegel and the Hermetic Tradition "Disgusted by the cruelty and artificiality of communism, scornful of the dogmatic, self- centered fascism of his age, Evola looks beyond man-made systems to the eternal prin- ciples in creation and human society. The truth, as he sees it, is so totally at odds with the present way of thinking that it shocks the modern mind." John Michell, author of The New View Over Atlantis
