Watkins, a scholar of esotericism, overheard his friend and teacher Madame Blavatsky lamenting the fact that there was nowhere in London to buy books on mysticism, occultism or metaphysics. At that moment Watkins was born, soon to become the home of many of the leading lights of spiritual literature, including Carl Jung, Rudolf Steiner, Alice Bailey and Chögyam Trungpa. Today our passion for vigor
ous questioning remains resolute. With over 350 titles on our list, Watkins continues to be at the cutting edge. Our books reflect the development of spiritual thinking and new science over the past 120 years, and we stay committed to publishing titles that change lives.
