I read this book when I was so new to the craft. As my study continues, I realize it is against Wiccan Rede "An it harm none, Do what thou wilt". The writer makes a precaution on "backfire" of the spells and "three folds law" but very few and not related to ethics of the Witchcraft at all. This book is not for beginners nor advanced learners of Modern Witchcraft as named but a book of black magic. It isn't too bad to read for experienced ones. However, there are so many good treasures waiting for you to pick up and enjoy the art and sciences of Witchcrafts. Bare in mind " An it harm none, Do what thou wilt" -- Blessed Be .. May you never thirst.
