About this title

Synopsis

The Philosopher's Stone presents text and analysis of three major alchemical works, approached symbolically, using the symbol systems and viewpoints of magic and psychology. The objective of alchemical study has been described poignantly by the author: Like modern psychological methods the alchemical formulae have left their goal the creation of a whole man, of integrity... Not only does Alchemy envisage an individual whose several constituents of consciousness are united , but with the characteristic thoroughness of all occult or magical methods it proceeds a stage further. It aspires towards the development of an integrated and free man who is illuminated. It is here that Alchemy parts company with orthodox Psychology. The clarity and elegance of the author's style and the precision and depth of his thought make The Philosopher's Stone an important and meaningful experience for every person who aspires to personal development and wholeness.
