The best way to get started with the Corpus Hermeticum

I absolutely love this translation. It is more poetic than others, and much easier to read. The book keeps it short, without a lot of explanation or commentary. But also, it has plenty of footnotes about translation, so you can get a better idea of where the translator was going and how they got there. I love this book so much that I take it with me when traveling! Highly recommended.
