Alchemy is one of the most evocative subjects in the history of science. Alchemy made important contributions to the development of modern science while firing popular imagination so strongly that portrayals of the alchemist at work pervaded the arts. The more celebrated goals of alchemy, like transmutation of base metals into gold, still tease and tantalize. Transmutations offers a thoughtful look at the role of the alchemist in the 17th and 18th centuries, as depicted in a selection of paintings from the Eddleman and Fisher Collections housed at the Chemical Heritage Foundation. This beautiful full-color book reveals much about the beginnings of chemistry as a profession.

According to practitioners and students of alchemy, the body's Vital Energy, or Quintessence, is best obtained from minerals and metals. Using everyday language and an accessible style, Cockren explores the different uses and manifestations of this ancient science, from the physical to the medicinal and even the spiritual. Along the way, he provides engaging sketches of alchemy's early pioneers, including St. Germain, Basil Valentine, and the legendary Paracelsus, providing a solid foundation to his belief that within the world's metals "can be found elements to cure all discords in the human body." Considered the greatest British alchemist of the 20th century, ARCHIBALD COCKREN (d. 1950) was a practicing physician who also studied metallurgy, biochemistry, and bacteriology.

Using, as their guide, the previously misunderstood interactions between Robert Boyle, widely known as 'the father of chemistry', and George Starkey, an alchemist and the most prominent American scientific writer before Benjamin Franklin as their guide, Newman and Principe reveal the hitherto hidden laboratory operations of a famous alchemist and argue that many of the principles and practices characteristic of modern chemistry derive from alchemy.

'Alchemy: Ancient and Modern' is a fascinating exploration of the enigmatic subject of alchemy, which is shrouded in mystery and often considered a bygone relic of a bygone era. However, author H. Stanley Redgrove argues that alchemy's fundamental ideas, which suggest that all matter is one in origin and produced by an evolutionary process, have surprising similarities to modern scientific theories. Redgrove takes a holistic approach to the subject, bridging the gap between the physical and mystical aspects of alchemy, and delves into the lives and works of both ancient and modern alchemists. From the Rosicrucian Society to William Ramsay's experiments on the transmutation of base metals into gold, this book is an eye-opening journey into the past and present of this intriguing subject.

Alchemy, the Noble Art, conjures up scenes of mysterious, dimly lit laboratories populated with bearded old men stirring cauldrons. Though the history of alchemy is intricately linked to the history of chemistry, alchemy has nonetheless often been dismissed as the realm of myth and magic, or fraud and pseudoscience. And while its themes and ideas persist in some expected and unexpected places, from the Philosopher's (or Sorcerer's) Stone of Harry Potter to the self-help mantra of transformation, there has not been a serious, accessible, and up-to-date look at the complete history and influence of alchemy until now.

In The Weiser Concise Guide to Alchemy, Brian Cotnoir has distilled over thirty years of research and study into this definitive introduction to alchemy. As James Wasserman writes in the introduction, "I challenge any reader to find a more succinct and clear guide to this science and art." From its beginnings in Egypt to the medieval "Golden Age" to the present day, Cotnoir reveals the secrets of this ancient science. In clear and easy to understand terms, Cotnoir illuminates the twin aspects of alchemy-the spiritual and the physical-and finally removes the veil from this mysterious and oft-misunderstood pursuit.
