While there are several very accessible editions (not to mention the facsimile version of the Original Edition) of Isis Unveiled already available in print, what does this Theosophy Trust Books edition offer that the others do not?Simply a higher degree of readability. The Original Edition was a spectacular work, given that the enormous complexity of the content – with a range of drawings, and a complex mixture of Sanskrit, Hebrew and Greek words – along with a very complex arrangement of the subject matter, presents uniquely difficult challenges. More recent editions have tried to remedy some of the problems found in the O.E., but some introduced other difficulties as well, such as editorial "explanations" and comments, as well as sectarian subject matter. The aim of this edition is to preserve all of the original content and modes of presentation – including even the archaic use of punctuation in the headings – while improving upon the accessibility and usefulness to the reader. To this end, we have included several features that may prove to be useful improvements. First, we have inserted a new set of minor section headers that indicate what that particular section discusses. These minor section headings do not replace the original section headers that also appear as line items in the Table of Contents; they simply provide some convenient reference points for the reader, and do not disturb the listings in the original Table of Contents. Second, the headers more consistently reflect the chapters where they are located. Third, we have selected a larger format book to allow us to set the entire book in 9.5 point Palatino Linotype, an elegant and highly readable typeface, replacing the original 8 pt. font. Fourth, as the footnotes contain some of the most interesting and provocative statements in the book, we have numbered all of the footnotes with consecutive numbers, so that the reader will more easily be able to retrace their path to these remarkable statements.Taken together, this Theosophy Trust edition is a beautifully crafted book, unique in its organization, that will reward the reader with an enjoyable reading experience and a valuable addition to their library.

    5.0 out of 5 stars One of the most important works that made Occultism and Oriental philosophies known to society
    Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2022
    Verified Purchase
    I began reading that timeless work by one of Theosphy greatest creator, Really Impressive. I originally began with her Biggest enterprise The Secret Doctrine but that Magnus Opus is too complicated to understand if some background of Theosophy or Occultism, Oriental philosophies aren not understood. As her first work of that magnitude was ISIS UNVEILED ten years prior to THE SECRET DOCTRINE, is better to begin with it. Much more simple and helps to get a glimpse on some background of what I exposed some lines above. Although we need to remember and understand that the writer of a book is a reflection of their own times because some of her language or how she express herself shows her Victorian views. Although She was ahead of her own time on so much of the themes compiled and the way She thinks her own historic era is there non the less and although Her understanding of so much themes was something magnificent she was a human being and can err too. Interesting reading to take it slowly as a true study in the research or to learn about the way the Theosophical movement began and its differencies with their modern view nowadays. Best if used with the Theosophical Glossary for some terminology that is needed. But as I go reading is an Extraordinary book.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!
    Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2021

    I have enjoyed this volume so much. From HPB’s intellect to her sarcasm, from her wisdom to her humor, her words have delighted me. She offers the opportunity to open one’s mind to all that we usually hide from in our rigid adherence to a materialistic society. Love this book! I had heard from various comments that some people find HPB hard to read but I found her writing style and content quite easy to read.

    Also, thanks to Theosophy Trust Books, the publisher of the volumes I purchased, for presenting the material in a clean crisp font for easy reading.

    The description was wrong and did not match the volume 2 that I ordered at the same time. I had to return it and cancel the order for vol 2.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Edizione consigliata
    Reviewed in Italy on September 19, 2021
    Verified Purchase
    Trovare una versione decente di questo libro è un’impresa, soprattutto in italiano, a meno che non vogliate spendere una piccola fortuna per acquistarlo direttamente dalla società teosofica (intendiamoci, secondo me vale la spesa visto il lavoro che c’è dietro).
    Per chi non lo sapesse questo volume è stato pubblicato nel corso del tempo in varie versioni, purtroppo difficili da leggere perché non divise in capitoli, le note non erano ordinate, il formato non facilita la lettura.
    In questa edizione invece il formato (anche se leggermente grande) è facilmente leggibile, i capitoli sono ben divisi, e le note sono state completamente riorganizzate.
    Se non avete problemi a leggere in inglese (attenzione però ci sono molti termini tecnici) e non volete spendere tanto, consiglio moltissimo questa edizione.
