Has anyone heard of the author and scholar Mike Nichols? I've been reading some of his articles and different pieces of information that he's written and posted on the web and I'm of two minds about him so I was wondering if anyone knew anything about him. I can't really find much about his lineage or what his credentials are and all that. So, if anyone knows anything or knows how to find out any information, that'd be lovely.
My initial instinct is to say that he's a very bright man. He seems to take an extremely scholarly approach to understanding modern witchcraft, as well as it's roots, and he's also been a practicing witch since the 60's, so he's seen a lot of change in his lifetime. I do somewhat disagree with some of his thoughts, but you know, that's bound to happen.
If you're interested, he's got a website based around a book he wrote, and I've found some other independent sites as well.
His website.
The Cauldron, a useful source of articles.
