This is the latest incarnation of Wilson's earlier The Mammoth Book of the Supernatural (1991, reprinted in 1997) and The Giant Book of the Supernatural (1994), and it is readily apparent that the content has been neither revised nor altered. The table of contents here, as in many 19th-century novels, includes abstracts summarizing the various sections. The index is not comprehensive; for instance, the term poltergeist appears numerous times throughout the book, including in the table of contents and the appendix, but it is not indexed. The book itself is a detailed catalog of various supernatural phenomena that have been recorded throughout history. VERDICT Wilson is very well known in this field, and readers who enjoy supernatural events will like this book, but one of its previous printings will suffice if you are interested in the topic.--Bradford Lee Eden, Univ. of California Lib., Santa Barbara
