He later worked on electronic weapons systems and emergency services command and control systems. He has established himself as one of the worlds leading authorities on the history of science and lectures on Information Systems at Bradford University's School of Management, one of the UK leading business schools. He is also a regular speaker on the Masonic lecture circuit in West Yorkshire as well as strong supporter of the Orkney Science Festival. He has written a number of books. He has co-authored the best-selling The Hiram Key, The Second Messiah, Uriel's Machine and The Book of Hiram. and written The Invisible College, Freemasonry and the Birth of Modern Science and The Man who Invented The Twentieth Century.
The author here tackles the big unanswered questions about the Brotherhood including: what is the purpose of freemasonry? What do Masons gain from working its Rituals? Can anybody benefit from the Spiritual Teachings of 'The Craft'? Are Masonic rituals simple moral plays designed to encourage people to behave well? Are they a secret tradition preserved from a long lost civilisation? Are they meaningless formalities, or do they serve some deeper purpose? In this ground-breaking book, the author describes his personal journey through the mystical rituals of Freemasonry and reveals why people join Freemasonry, what they expect to find and how they benefit.

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Paperback Printing. Paperback. Tiny crease to corner back cover. Foreword by Colin Wilson. 'One of the practical aims of Freemasonry is to teach people how to be in control of their own lives. This book makes an admirable starting point for this process. Lomas gives the impression of enormous energy and intellectual vitality - a man who is in control of his own life and has the gift of being able to teach others to follow his example (Colin Wilson). 'Not since W. L. Wilmshurt's books and lodge papers of the 1920s and the 30s has there been such a positive and serious study of Freemasonry as a system of spititual philosophy'. (W. Bro. Douglas Ingelsent). Illustrated. 400 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
