The Book Concerning the Tincture of The Philosophers: Unlocking the Secrets of Alchemical Transformation (Large Print Deluxe Edition For Easy Reading)

Paracelsus invites us into his laboratory and, more importantly, into his cosmology, where the elements of nature mirror the elements of the self. Meticulously annotated and freshly rendered, this edition bridges 16th-century alchemy with 21st-century seekers.
