The Devil's Notebook is a riveting collection of wisdom, humor and dark observations by the founder of The Church of Satan, Anton LaVey. The High Priest speculates on such topics as nonconformity, occult faddism, erotic politics, the 'Goodguy badge,' demoralization and the construction of artificial human companions. Like P.T. Barnum, Ben Hecht and H.L. Mencken before him, LaVey zeroes in on humankind's limitless capacity for self-deceit and self-denial. Included are instructions for the creation of what LaVey terms 'total environments,' or places of magical evocation, where the enlightened may escape the deleterious effects of contemporary existence. The Devil's Notebook is a true grimoire, as relevant today as it was when it was first published in 1992. Introduction by Adam Parfrey. Anton LaVey's sharpest essays on culture, psychology, and the occult - an underground classic of modern Satanic thought. The Devil's Notebook gathers Anton Szandor LaVey's essays on nonconformity, culture, and the psychology of modern life into one of the most accessible and frequently cited books in the Satanic canon. Best known as the founder of the Church of Satan and author of The Satanic Bible, LaVey turns his attention here to everyday behavior, social performance, and the ways individuals construct identity and belief in contemporary society. Written with wit, provocation, and observational precision, these essays explore subjects ranging from occult fads and mass psychology to erotic politics, artificial companions, and what LaVey calls 'total environments' - carefully designed personal spaces meant to shape mood, perception, and ritual experience. Drawing comparisons to satirists and cultural critics such as H. L. Mencken and P. T. Barnum, LaVey examines human self-deception, conformity, and spectacle with a mix of humor and philosophical commentary. First published in 1992, The Devil's Notebook has become a key text for readers interested in modern Satanism, occult philosophy, and countercultural critique. This edition includes an introduction by Adam Parfrey, founder of Feral House, placing the work within the broader history of alternative religion, underground publishing, and late-twentieth-century cultural dissent. A widely read entry point into LaVey's thought and a core title for readers of occult studies, modern Satanism, cultural criticism, and alternative spirituality. Review: Compelling, thought provoking, funny and sometimes totally bonkers. - If you ignore the obvious religious implications according to Anton Szandor LaVey the founder of the Church of Satan; Satanism is just another philosophy which you can choose to either agree with or disagree with. If you approach this book with an open mind there are some well-reasoned and interesting ideas to be found amongst the pseudo mystical babble and his many rants at the stupidity of the world. At times it is incredibly funny especially when LaVey so accurately points out the hypocrisy which exists in our society and his opinion of television and health food stores is absolutely priceless! Other subjects which he writes about tend to be a little bit more bizarre especially his Trapezoid theory and his fascination with mannequins (bargain basement human androids) towards the end of the book is completely and outrageously bonkers. Nevertheless it suggested to me that LaVey didn’t really like real people very much unless they were worthy of his company which does hint at a narcissistic personality. LaVey writes very eloquently but sometimes his essays descend into negativity and his sense of frustration with the masses is noticeable. I don’t agree with everything in this book and I am certainly not a Satanist but there were many things he said which I found myself agreeing with. All in all it was a very compelling read mired a little by a hefty amount of cynicism but I don’t regret my purchase at all. Review: great book - i liked this book as it gives you the real truth about Satanism, the author is a real nice guy, and very true in his opinions, i wish i had met him. I reccomend you read this first you will understand the rest of his books, if you dont like it you haven't wasted any money, but if you do like it, buy all the others ## Features - New - Mint Condition - Dispatch same day for order received before 12 noon - Guaranteed packaging - No quibbles returns ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 159,030 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 101 in Cults & Demonism 551 in Occult Magic 587 in New Age Occultism | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,728 Reviews | ## Images ![The Devil's Notebook - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81-sM3zYFGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Compelling, thought provoking, funny and sometimes totally bonkers. *by J***6 on 5 May 2017* If you ignore the obvious religious implications according to Anton Szandor LaVey the founder of the Church of Satan; Satanism is just another philosophy which you can choose to either agree with or disagree with.
