Concerning the Tincture of the Philosophers
Author: Paracelsus BombastusPublisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781533117540
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
The ways of alchemy within alchemical manuscripts themselves can be confusing and arcane. Here, in a work attributed to Paracelsus, (although it was manufactured later and merely retains his tradition of work) it is explained in some depth, in a more compact manner. The creation of the philosophers' tincture, as a form of medicine, continues to mostly elude the modern day occultist. Here then are references to its manufacture, the process involved, and a lengthy and acerbic refutation of the critics of the mystic world.

Pages : 27
Book Description
"The Value of Philosophy" is one of the most important chapters of Bertrand's Russell's magnum Opus, The Problems of Philosophy. As a whole, Russell focuses on problems he believes will provoke positive and constructive discussion, Russell concentrates on knowledge rather than metaphysics: If it is uncertain that external objects exist, how can we then have knowledge of them but by probability. There is no reason to doubt the existence of external objects simply because of sense data.

Cracking the Philosophers' Stone

Pages : 658
Book Description
Cracking the Philosophers' Stone is a combination of historical commentary with reproducible chemistry that thoroughly analyses one of the most respected and mysterious chemical reactions in the history of science and technology. This book guides the reader through the origins and evolution of the archetypal recipe for the Philosophers' Stone of early Alexandrian alchemy. LaPort and Gabrielsson also provide details for various chemical reproductions based on the authors' interpretation and hypotheses of ancient chemistry preserved in encrypted form in alchemical texts. Because of the human stories and historical backdrop, every layperson will find something of value to expand their understanding of the ancient world. Even scientists and specifically chemists will be fascinated with the reproducible chemical experiments presented in this ground-breaking work. The book is actually three books in one: 1) an introduction to alchemy, 2) a detailed history of alchemy's origins and evolution, and 3) a technical reference for actual reproducibility of alchemy's most sought-after prize - the Philosophers' Stone. Conclusions are contextually counter-balanced by laboratory experimentation, traditional alchemical texts and original interpretations.
