From the French of Salverte, with notes illustrative, explanatory and critical by Anthony Todd Thomson. Contains discussion relative to the following topics: man is credulous because he is naturally sincere; difference between miracles and prodigies; enumeration and discussion of causes; allegories and fables adopted as real facts; real but rare phenomena held up as prodigies; magic; antiquity and universality of the belief in magic; trial of skill between the Thaumaturgists; errors mingled with the positive truths of science; safeguards of the mystery that surrounded the occult sciences; hieroglyphics; acoustics; optics; and many others.
