An in-depth look into the foundations of mysticism and alchemy, this book describes both physical and spiritual aspects of the various theories and practices of transformation, with attention to the beliefs of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism, Sufism, Tantrism, Taoism and Yoga. The connection between early mystical pursuits and the development of alchemy from ancient China, India, and Egypt through Moorish Spain and into Latin Europe are illuminated, along with the activities of early alchemists. The book, which is heavily illustrated, describes the beliefs, experiments, and secret messages that drew the believers and dreamers of the world together in search of wealth and immortality.

'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 is the medieval predecessor of chemistry which was based on trying to transform matter, especially changing base metals into gold. This vintage book explores the various alchemistic doctrines, as well as their relationships with mysticism and science. Also included are chapters on the lives and theories of the most notable alchemists. Contents include: “The Aim of Alchemy”, “The Transcendental Theory of Alchemy”, “Failure of the Transcendental Theory”, “The Qualifications of the Adept”, “Alchemistic Language”, “Alchemists of a Mystical Type”, “The Meaning of Alchemy”, “Opinions of other Writers”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with that in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on folklore.
