In short, true alchemy is a discipline involving physical, psychological and spiritual work aimed at producing wholeness and enlightenment.Cherry Gilchrist''s lively and sympathetic narrative takes the reader from the alchemical interests of the ancient Egyptians to the flowering of alchemy in the seventeenth century. She also describes the complexities of alchemical symbolism and examines the ways in which alchemy has developed in the twentieth century.
