Dear friends,

Theosophy Forward's third announcement in 2013 regarding a new e-book release is a very special one, especially for those students who want to be informed impartially. Dr. James Santucci, a professor of Comparative Religion at California State University, Fullerton, not affiliated with any Theosophical organization wrote "Theosophy and the Theosophical Societies" in the mid-nineties. Thanks to the input of a few the piece was completely updated in 2013. This e-book opens in DNL Reader, but is also available in PDF format.
