Very good posthumous article collection.
My focus what on the excellent "Traditional Cosmology and Modern Science" part, which includes strong criticism and good remarks on Modern Physics, Traditional Symbolism and Modern Empiricism, Evolutionism and Modern Psychology.
Interesting to note that during the same year (1984) where this collection was released, Wolfgang Smith also released a book on the same topics (Cosmos and Transcendence).

The latter, concerning Modern Psychology, deserved to be expanded into a full book... Concerning this chapter, Burckhardt himself said, as a summary :

"Frithjof Schuon, after reading the present chapter, sent me the following reflections in writing: 'People generally see in Jungism, as compared with Freudism, a step towards reconciliation with the traditional spiritualities, but this is in no wise the case. From this point of view, the only difference is that, whereas Freud boasted of being an irreconcilable enemy of religion, Jung sympathizes with it while emptying it of its contents, which he replaces by collective psychism, that is to say by something infra-intellectual and therefore anti-spiritual. In this there is an immense danger for the ancient spiritualities, whose representatives, especially in the East, are too often lacking in critical sense with regard to the Modern spirit, and this by reason of a complex of ''rehabilitation"; also it is not with much surprise, though with grave disquiet, that one has come across echoes of this kind from Japan, where the psychoanalyst's "equilibrium" has been compared to the satori of Zen; and there is little doubt that it would be easy to meet with similar confusions in India and elsewhere. Be that as it may, the confusions in question are greatly favoured by the almost universal refusal of people to see the devil and to call him by his name, in other words, by a kind of tacit convention compounded of optimism to order, tolerance that in reality hates truth, and compulsory alignment with scientism and official taste, without forgetting "culture", which swallows everything and commits one to nothing, except complicity in its neutralism; to which must be added a no less universal and quasi-official contempt for whatever is, we will not say intellectualist, but truly intellectual, and therefore tainted, in people's minds, with dogmatism, scholasticism, fanaticism, and prejudice. All this goes hand in hand with the psychologism of our time and is in large measure its result."
As Buckhardt said : "There are some realms where dilettantism is unforgivable."

"It is significant that the tortoise, whose skeleton seems to indicate an extravagant adaptation to an animal 'armoured' state, appears all at once among the fossils, without evolution. Similarly, the spider appears simultaneously with its prey and with its faculty of weaving already developed."

An interesting book review of Evola's Ride the Tiger is included aswell.
