Yeah, I get an error screen thats blank except for MEGA: update browser on the tab on my MacBook. I use Safari and the laptop is a bit dated, so it makes sense as to why except for the blank page and my refusal to install chrome on this laptop.

I managed to download it on the second attempt only, so here is a corresponding link to my own mega.nz account (which acted up as well, no idea why):

This scan is incomplete - according to a PM I received a couple of days before, it's missing about 20% of the pages. Better than nothing as this is an exceedingly rare book that was only available on Telegram. The Crowley books themselves contained in this edition, however, are freely available on the web so the only thing really missing from these blank pages are Skinner's notes. I therefore consider the request for the book fulfilled, no matter the scan's incompleteness.

Forgot to say thank you to @whatever0935 for uploading this rare book!

Not working
Re-up, please!
Error page popping up
Many say this is Crowley's best and most accessible book so its text alone (which is in the public domain anyway) should be sufficient without requiring any 'special' editions with comments by contemporary authors. There is yet another version edited by Hymenaeus Beta, the late head of the O.TO. but annas-archive.org has been acting up since yesterday, and I've spent enough time hunting for versions of this book. Read it and don't just add it to your ebook collection, you don't need Dr. Skinner to benefit from it.

This is the masterpiece of occultist, magician and philosopher Aleister Crowley, introduced for the first time by one of the world's leading experts on Western esoteric traditions, Stephen Skinner.

"Do what thou wilt."

Written in the early twentieth century, the four books contained within this collection make up one of the most complete and groundbreaking works on the practice of magick ever written. They are considered to be the masterpiece of occultist, magician and philosopher Aleister Crowley and the core texts for the religion of Thelema. Their influence on alternative western thought and philosophy cannot be exaggerated.

Also known as Book Four, or Liber ABA, the four parts bring together many rituals, received texts, theorems and unequalled insights into the practice of magick, culminating in The Book of the Law, the central, sacred text dictated to Crowley by a preternatural entity. Anyone interested in yoga, ceremonial magic, esoteric thought, invocation, divination and beyond, or those looking to delve into the fascinating, playful and illuminating writings of a unique man, will find inspiration.

For the first time, one of the world's leading experts on Western esoteric traditions and magic, Dr. Stephen Skinner, introduces the text, sharing his insights into Crowley's take on yoga, ceremonial magick and Thelema. His long involvement with magick, both as an academic and as a practitioner, enabled Dr. Skinner to highlight the differences between the psychological and the spirit-orientated approaches to magick, and to show how that dilemma shaped Crowley's practice and his founding of Thelema, enlightening the reader to many previously unknown connections.
