Everyone has their own way of doing these rituals, and I think their personal belief, invested over time and with much practise, is what makes them effective (to a point). As akkad mentioned there are many fragmentary or nearly-useless tablets and writings based on tablets that have become quite hard to find. They outline the original practises of Mesopotamian priests and healers, for lack of better English words (they had many words for someone who used their magick), and while it is difficult to find them they do exist. If you can find such tablets (or even just partial transliterations of those tablets), with some hard work you can create something that is above and beyond any of the pseudo-historical banishings found in the Simon Nec.
Understand that despite this book's power it is a retelling of a retelling of a retelling, probably more times and in more languages than we know. To cut through all the stuff that's questionable and to find what's obviously wrong, you must return to the source: the writings of the priests of Babylonia, Assyria, Akkad and Sumer.
