One of the most diabolical lies of all time is that the devil doesn't exist. When we lose sight of the reality of the devil's existence, our souls are in peril because we become defenseless in a battle we don't even realize is being fought. The opposite view can also be insidious, as is increasingly clear in our age of rising obsession with the allurements of evil and the occult.
In this preeminent collection of more than thirty historical, literary, philosophical, and psychological essays from esteemed authors, the nature and role of Satan are exposed, and the highest card he has to play against the world is revealed. This classic compendium is divided into five sections: "Satan's Existence and Nature," "The Place of the Devil outside Christianity," "Possession and Diabolism," "The Devil in Art and Literature," and "Deicide."

- How precisely the evil one leads us into temptation and sin
- Three remedies against the devil's tactics according to St. John of the Cross
- Ways St. Teresa of
