Scott Cunningham's classic introduction to Wicca is about how to live life magically, spiritually, and wholly attuned with nature. It is a book of sense and common sense, not only about magick but also about religion and one of the most critical issues of today: how to achieve the much-needed and wholesome relationship with our Earth. Cunningham presents Wicca as it is today: a gentle, Earth-oriented religion dedicated to the Goddess and God. Wicca also includes Cunningham's own Book of Shadows.

"Extreamly true to Wicca. It is well written andvery organized. It explains so much and has helped bring Wicca into the lives of those who can not join a coven. It is highly enlightening and spiritually moving. It covers all of the basics for solitary Wicca. "
— Jessamyn (5 out of 5 stars)
" A total must read for any Witch! "
— Nicki, 5/6/2011" I bought this when I wasn't sure of my personal philosophy. It made me sure that I wasn't a wiccan - not that I hated the idea, just that I'm not one for ritual. It's got some nioe recipes for incenses in it, which is why I kept it. "
— Saleris, 3/13/2011" Should be one of the first three books to read on Paganism/Wicca "
— Thirdruffian, 3/9/2011" The pagan world lost a great man when Scott Cunningham died. This is one of the best books for learning Wicca possible as it is written in normal language. I have read this book multiple times on many occasions. "
— Rebecca, 1/4/2011" A very good book for those who are new to the craft. "
— Wendyrose89, 12/23/2010" I'm not Wiccan myself but it was a pretty interesting read. "
— Georgie, 12/20/2010" First read this in 2007, re-read it over the last few days. I find it refreshing, like sweet, clean water on the tongue. It's a nice introduction to a beautiful faith. "
— Alex, 12/5/2010" It was a good book that covered different areas briefly. It didn't particularly resonate with me, but it did have some handy exercises. Very light. It's the second non-fiction pagan book I ever read, right after Spiral Dance. "
— Shine, 10/14/2010" I learned everything I need to know... "
— Anthony, 10/13/2010" Twas a little helpful but not by much. I felt I was reading a philosophy book instead of a book to help me practice a religion I am interested in. "
— Amy, 10/3/2010" I really like the freedom the author gives you. It's helpful and nice. "
— Ahdelina, 10/2/2010" I'd recommend this for any first year pagan, and as a resource of information, but I didn't get much from it personally. "
— Nilchance, 9/28/2010" This is the book that I always recommend to people who are interested in learning about Wicca. He is informative without being a pompous ass. "
