Long shrouded in secrecy, alchemy is now recognized as the ancestor of modern chemistry. Before the advent of modern science, alchemy was the ancient art of transformation, a way of combining matter to create a divine force. Today alchemy retains a strong pull on the imagination, with its tales of turning base metals into gold and mixing potions to create the elixir of life, a draught that brings immortality. Alchemy Illustrated offers a vivid illustrated guide to this lost art, introducing the reader to the main developments in alchemy and the most famous people to have dabbled in this speculative science. Discover the alchemical elements and their properties, a precursor to the periodic table, which included such substances such as bismuth, sulfur and moon-silver, the last of these symbolizing intuition, resurrection and illumination; learn about the PhilosopherÂ’s Stone, a mythic alchemical substance capable of turning base metals into gold, and pursued by famous scientists such as Isaac Newton, who wrote more than a million words on alchemy during his lifetime; and encounter Hennig Brand, who in 1669 accidentally discovered the chemical element phosphorus during alchemical experimentation.

Flush with hundreds of illustrations, this book revisits the histories of chemistry, medicine, ideas, and culture through the lens of alchemy  “Philip Ball’s book is a treasure: beautifully illustrated and, as usual, the author caries his learning lightly.”—David Wootton, Spectator  The craft of alchemy has intrigued and mystified people since antiquity. Many early cultures are known to have experimented with chemical transformations: from dyes, glazes, and cosmetics in Bronze Age Egypt to life-extending elixirs pursued by scholars in ancient China and India. Many have also attempted to transform lead, mercury, and other metals into gold—and some claim to have succeeded. In this visually stunning volume, Philip Ball sets alchemy within the context of the history of science and culture, showing that it was not simply an esoteric fantasy but an important phase in the development of experimental science and natural philosophy.  Rich illustrations complement a narrative history of the methods and techniques developed in alchemical workshops, the search for the philosopher’s stone and “elixirs of life” that extended across diverse cultures, and the controversies surrounding the practices of making alchemical gold and alchemical medicine. Ball explores the rise of alchemy from its inception in Hellenistic culture, through ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Alchemy is central to Jung''s hypothesis of the collective unconscious. In this volume he begins with an outline of the process and aims of psychotherapy, and then moves on to work out the analogies between alchemy, Christian dogma and symbolism and his own understanding of the analytic process.Introducing the basic concepts of alchemy, Jung reminds us of the dual nature of alchemy, comprising both the chemical process and a parallel mystical component. He also discusses the seemingly deliberate mystification of the alchemists. Finally, in using the alchemical process as providing insights into individuation, Jung emphasises the importance of alchemy in relating to us the transcendent nature of the psyche.

When alchemy emerged in Roman Egypt, early adepts knew their wisdom came from the Egyptian temples. Yet these deep roots in ancient Egypt have remained obscure, doubted even by many. Journeying through the beautiful temples at Abu Simbel and Dendara, dedicated to the love goddess Hathor, and delving into the Osirian mysteries enshrined in Ramesses VIs tomb at Thebes, Hathors Alchemy unearths this transformational lost knowledge. Greek, Islamic and medieval European alchemists all drew on its wisdom of the queen, including the authors of Aurora consurgens and the Rosarium philosophorum. Explored, too, is alchemys profound influence in Sufism. Richly illustrated in colour throughout, this groundbreaking book reunites ancient Egypt and alchemy within the western Hermetic tradition.

A bold exploration of the reintegration of rationality and intuition, science and soul, to foster individual and planetary healing During the scientific revolution, science and soul were drastically separated, propelling humanity into four centuries of scientific exploration based solely on empiricism and rationality. But, as scientist and ecologist Stephan Harding, Ph.D., demonstrates in detail, by reintegrating science with profound personal experiences of psyche and soul, we can reclaim our lost sacred wholeness and help heal ourselves and our planet. The book begins with compelling introductions to depth psychology, alchemy, and Gaia theory--the science of seeing the Earth as an intelligent, self-regulating system, a theory pioneered by the author’s mentor James Lovelock. Harding then explores how alchemy, as understood through the depth psychology of C. G. Jung, offers us powerful methods of reuniting rationality and intuition, science and soul. He examines the integration of important alchemical engravings, including those from L’Azoth des Philosophes and the Rosarium Philosophorum, with Gaian science. He shows how the seven key alchemical operations in the Azoth image can help us develop deeply transformative experiences and insights into our interconnectedness with Gaia. He then looks at how the four components of the living Earth--biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

''A fearless and important book . . . The End of Alchemy isn''t just an elegant guide to the history of economic ideas. It also gives a genuine insider''s account'' TelegraphThe past twenty years saw unprecedented growth and stability followed by the worst financial crisis the industrialised world has ever witnessed. In the space of little more than a year what had been seen as the age of wisdom was viewed as the age of foolishness. Almost overnight, belief turned into incredulity. Most accounts of the recent crisis focus on the symptoms and not the underlying causes of what went wrong. But those events, vivid though they remain in our memories, comprised only the latest in a long series of financial crises since our present system of commerce became the cornerstone of modern capitalism. Alchemy explains why, ultimately, this was and remains a crisis not of banking - even if we need to reform the banking system - nor of policy-making - even if mistakes were made - but of ideas. In this refreshing and vitally important book, former governor of the Bank of England Mervyn King - an actor in this drama - proposes revolutionary new concepts to answer ...

He shows how economists, businesses and governments have got it all wrong: we are not rational creatures who make logical decisions based on evidence. Instead, the big problems we face every day, whether as an individual or in society, could very well be solved by thinking less logically. To be brilliant, you have to be irrational.

This book has been steadily fermenting and evolving for over twenty-five years, and as such it represents a true alchemical process. It has gone from being an idea to a passion, and then a project and now it is a fully-fledged book.

Během této doby Michael prodal stovky miliónů svých nahrávek, měl třináct singlů na prvním místě hitparád a vydal popkulturně fenomenální „Thriller,” který se se 100 milióny prodanými kusy stal nejprodávanějším albem všech dob.

Audiokniha: V létě roku 1989 založil skladatel Michael Kocáb spolu s novinářem Michalem Horáčkem iniciativu MOST, která si dala za cíl zprostředkovat jednání mezi komunistickou mocí a představiteli nezávislých opozičních sdružení. Co se zprvu mohlo zdát dílem jako troufalost a dílem jako politická naivita, se už v listopadu téhož roku ukázalo být především občanskou od vahou a prozíravostí, když k jednacímu stolu zasedl tehdejší předseda vlády Ladislav Adamec a zástupci studentů, Občanského fóra a Veřejnosti proti násilí v čele s Václavem Havlem. Kocáb popisuje všechna zásadní jednání s komunistickými vládci, s generalitou československé i sovětské armády, se sovětskou stranou včetně zástupců KGB, která vedl či se jich účastnil za iniciativu MOST nebo Občanské fórum. Průběh sametové revoluce líčí na pozadí připravované akce Zásah, kterou se armádní složky ve spolupráci s StB snažily zabránit demokratizačním změnám silou. Autobiografický text působí trochu jako politický thriller. Autor popisuje, jak se situace měnila den po dni, hodinu po hodině, a ukazuje, že politika je tvůrčí a často i improvizační činnost, v níž občas není od věci brát na sebe „drzou“ odpovědnost. V druhé části knihy pak vzpomíná na svoje působení ve Sněmovně lidu Federálního shromáždění ČSFR a na druhý olbřímí úkol, který si předsevzal ... Unknown localization key: "more"
