Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. From the dawn of time to the dawn of man, this book tells the story of nature's hidden powers as learned by the ancient and modern worlds. It starts with the Babylonians, who paved the way for astrological practices, and continues through the contributions of the Greeks and Persians. The author details the influence of numerology and the evolution of alchemy. He shows how Chinese philosophy blended with Western thought to make way for scientific exploration, and how the Renaissance brought forth the concept of the earth's rotation around the sun. By the 17th century, the foundation was laid for the era of science, and alongside it, the practice of mesmerism and spiritualism. This book is a must-read for those who want to understand the hidden forces of the natural world and their profound impact on human history.
