"Salfluere offers a detailed consideration of the core concepts that afford a glimpse at the nature of the philosophy, and its first principles, which lie at the heart of Hermetic science - the source and backbone, yet least understood aspect, of the Western mystery tradition. Beginning with an examination of the history of Hermeticism over the past two millennia, a clear historical and conceptual distinction is made between the body of pure Hermetic knowledge - the secret tradition - and the popular outer tradition, the latter of which is so often mistaken for the former. The much-neglected and misunderstood heart of Hermetic philosophy and its practical expression - the science of Hermetic initiation - is the subject of detailed discussion, as is the central role that alchemy plays in the theory and practical dynamic of Hermeticism.".
