Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a humorous look at the history of alchemists and astrologers; men convinced of their powers and abilities and undeterred by their consistent failures. Though their claims to have invented the philosopher's stone, understood the stars, and been able to see the future seem preposterous to modern eyes, this book illustrates the remarkable impact their work has had throughout history, from the founding of the Royal Society, to Isaac Newton's theories on gravity. The author makes their case that astrology and alchemy, far from being dismissed as ridiculous and aberrant pursuits, are in fact part of a larger story of human curiosity and imagination that has often been at the heart of scientific and intellectual progress. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
