His prolific output includes six volumes of Investigations into Magic which sought to be the last word on magic, witchcraft, and allied subjects such as divination and superstition, and a detailed manual of advice for judges and confessors engaged in combatting what was seen at the time as a dangerous threat to the spiritual life of humanity in this world and the next. First published in 1599-1600, Investigations was heralded as a major contribution to the armoury of the Counter-Reformation, and went through several editions, the last appearing in 1747."-- Provided by publisher.Authorized Access PointDel Rio, Martin Antoine, 1551-1608 Investigations into magic, an edition and translation of Martín del Río's Disquisitionum magicarum libri sex
