This book is the Fourth in a series of manuals designed to meet the needs of contemporary public demand for a simplified exposition of theosophical teachings. As pervious examples were widely deemed to be obtuse, Karma attempts to provide access for the ordinary men and women of the work-a-day world to the philosophy, science and religion of theosophy, making plain the great truths that enable us to bear life and face death. This interesting and easy to digest text is a must-have for those interested in the evolution of theosophy and comprises a worthy addition to any discerning bookshelf. Annie Besant was a famous British socialist, theosophist, women's rights activist, writer and orator, whose other notable work includes My Path to Atheism (1877) and The Ancient Wisdom (1898). Originally published in 1895, we are proudly republishing this scarce classic with an introductory biography of the author.
