Sobre el autor
Arthur Edward Waite was a scholarly mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric matters, and was the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. As his biographer, R.A. Gilbert described him, ‘Waite’s name has survived because he was the first to attempt a systematic study of the history of western occultismviewed as a spiritual tradition rather than as aspects of proto-science or as the pathology of religion.’
