About this audiobook

A renowned modern-day classic on the actual practice of alchemy. The Alchemist's Handbook has long been an essential contribution to the study of alchemy since its first publication in 1960. It still stands as a groundbreaking work presenting in clear, concise language a practical manual of working knowledge that was formerly handed down under oath of secrecy. The scope of alchemical work is to provide both a means to synthesize all the other sciences and the necessary training of the intellectual and spiritual faculties. The Alchemist's Handbook discusses in detail: - The basic fundamental principles of alchemy. - A guide to the formation of an inexpensive home laboratory. - Step-by-step instructions for the work of the Lesser Circulation, the alchemical transformation within the plant kingdom. This edition includes a new foreword by Robert Allen Bartlett, author of Real Alchemy.
