The Alchemist's Handbook: A Practical Manual

"Worth its weight in gold . . . If you really want to learn the basic principles of practical alchemy, here they are in this wonderful little Manual." —from the foreword by Israel Regardie, author of The Golden Dawn Includes a new foreword by Robert Allen Bartlett, author of Real Alchemy The Alchemist's Handbook has long been considered a modern-day classic on the actual practice of alchemy since its first publication in 1960. The book still stands as a groundbreaking work presenting in clear, concise language a practical manual of working knowledge that was formerly handed down only 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. "Hermetic philosophy, with its practical arcanum," writes Frater Albertus, "repeats itself over and over again in the ancient axiom 'As above, so below. As below, so above.'" The Alchemist's Handbook discusses in detail:

- The basic fundamental principles of alchemy. - A guide to the formation of an inexpensive home laboratory with illustrations of the necessary equipment. - Step-by-step instructions for the work of the Lesser Circulation, the alchemical transformation within the plant kingdom. "If you feel the call of Alchemy and want real information on the subject, this is definitely the book you will want to read, reread, and read again. It may just turn out to be the book that changes your life." —from the foreword by Robert Allen Bartlett, author of Real Alchemy: A Primer of Practical Alchemy
