The Complete Idiot's Guide to alchemy, by Dennis W. Hauck.

Personally I think this book is an excellent primer and introduction to the topic of the Hermetic Art of Alchemy, as this is the first book I read when I began studying the topic.

It's completely understandable if you're in the dark about alchemy. It has been practiced around the world and linked to various religious rites, scientific experiments, and, of course, magic - a series of beliefs and disciplines that defy categorization and definition.

The Complete Idiot's Guide to Alchemy demystifies this ancient art with an easy-to-comprehend overview of its history, philosophies, and practices. In it, you get:

• The basic principles of alchemy - including the Three Essentials that are present in all things
• The alchemist's code - ciphers, signs, symbols, sacred geometry, and more
• A list of tonics, elixirs, and other alchemical medicines
• The three stages of alchemical transformation
• The meaning and power of the Four Elements - Fire, Water, Air and Earth - and the Fifth Element, the Quintessence
• A look at the relationship between alchemy and science
• An exploration of the significance of the Philosopher's Stone
• A behind-the-scenes tour of a medieval alchemist's laboratory
