I don't have the time this morning to fully describe this book.  It 
was originally published in 1958.  Mr. Spinks was a long time member 
of the  Point Loma Theosophical Society.  I remember corresponding 
with him in the 1970s.

This book is a goldmine of info on the various Theosophical 
Societies and groups, some of the controversies of the Theosophical 
Movement such as the Judge Case, the Leadbeater Case, etc. etc.  Mr. 
Spinks provides a great deal of material that is not easily 
obtainable elsewhere.  He reviews the basic teachings of Theosophy, 
and also deals with the controversies about different and competing 
Theosophical teachings.  One chapter is even entitled:  Who is 
Infallible?

You may not agree with all of Mr. Spinks' observations and 
conclusions but there is so much food for thought in this volume 
that I want to re-read and study the book several times.

Members/students of various Theosophical groups might find it highly 
profitable to read and study this remarkable book!  The book could 
be the starting point for many fruitful discussions .... even on 
Theos-Talk!
