Summary: Anton LaVey Prefers Sex Ploys To Magick!
Comment: In his book, Mr. LaVey dismisses a Wiccan or another White (beneficent) Magick user as one who "...either is kidding herself or has much to learn." He redefines a witch as a female temptress who has made a pact with the Devil and who uses her magical sexual image and prowness to "...cloud men's minds and make simpering idiots out of them." Mr. LaVey's witches play with men because "...if a woman wants anything in life, she can obtain it easier through a man than through another woman...".
The book presents Mr. LaVey's lessons for witches. He discusses his concept of men and women's physical, mental, and emotional characteristics. He discusses how his witches project a selected sexual image using cosmetics, body language, fashion, sexual ploys, psychology, fortune telling, and ceremonial magic. He discusses how his witches control the news media.
Mr. LaVey's book is both humorous and sad. Mr. LaVey's instructions for manipulating men are absurdly stereotypical. But once Ones realize that Mr. LaVey's lessons are totally serious and that Mr. LaVey apparently *has* trained many women, Mr. LaVey's opinion and use of women saddens Ones. Mr. LaVey's witches resemble veneered furniture: their finish only is skin deep.
This book, which provides a window into Mr. LaVey's personality and life, is a mixed blessing. Keep your ice open.

Summary: You can't judge a book by its cover
Comment: (...)
Forget the title. Forget the inverted pentagram on the front. Forget the hoakey Halloween coloring of the outside. Now, what's the CONTENT of this book all about? You're buying the WRONG book IF you're searching for literature on spell casting, devil worship, cults, the supernatural, metaphysics, soul selling, or even descriptions of Satanism.
But what you WILL find in this book is researched (the bibliography is HUGE) and refined, applicable manipulation techniques. Nothing "magick" or "supernatural"- it's all psychological. But it works!
The book ultimately teaches how to "read" people, and how to use that information to your own advantage. LaVey mentions that "psychics" don't actually have supernatural powers but rather do great "people reading"- making very close observations of posture, clothing, speech, etc. and using that to make accurate guesses as to what their life is like.
This is book was mostly written for women (though despite being a man, I still found use for the "people reading" techniques). The main focus is on how a woman can use the fact she's a woman to her advantage. And that doesn't always mean being sexually seductive.
In fact, being a man, this book practically _scared_ me when I realized just how much power a woman CAN have. In a way, I'm _glad_ the book has a title blasphemous enough to turn-off the average person, because if every woman used this book, they'd completely rule the world overnight (if they truly don't rule already). But again, despite being for female-applicable, men too can get something out of the book.
Oh yeah, and if you think I'm some brainwashed lying cult member and thus don't believe me- go ahead and read (or even skim through) the book yourself!

Summary: Satanic history revision
Comment: It's interesting to follow the Orwellian revision of history in the editions of this book. The orginal version "The Compleat Witch" was dedicated "to Diane" (LaVey - wife and High Priestess). The next edition, "The Satanic Witch" dropped it, but has a long introduction by daughter Zeena, which includes a glowing depiction of her mother and father.
In this version has both Zeena and Diane have become non-persons, as the present version of the church of Satan tries to pretend they never existed.
