Summary: Without an Equal
Comment: Migene Gonzalez Wippler has dedicated her life to scholarly research and mysticism and this comprehensive source book reflects that. This is one of the most indepth, cross-cultural guides to amulets and talisman that I've come across and that includes over 25 years of research in this field. I have subtracted 1 star because at times the author is a little too much of an erudite for the general reader who may become bogged down with jargon. Nevertheless the dense text, great illustrations and multicultural analysis make this book wwelcome on the shelf of anyone studying magic, mysticism or esoteric symbolism. As a paperback it is reasonably priced which is an additional benefit.

Summary: Required for your reference shelf
Comment: Once in a while during self-imposed studies, it is nice to reward yourself with a book to just browse through. I got this Book of Amulets with that in mind, and it has since become one of the favorites on my reference shelf. Not just a book of symbols, this book also describes history and origin of things like rabbit's feet, Marzipan skulls from Mexico, tarot cards, and crosses. Learn how the swastika used to be a beautiful and powerful symbol, long before Hitler used it as his own. You will often refer to this book to look up the meanings of symbols you run across in your studies, and you'll surely find ideas on how to make an amulet with your own personal meaning.
