Alchemy, at one time, had to die to give birth to chemistry. Chemistry was nothing more than the composite of all the stumbles of men and women who desperately searched for the Philosopher's Stone, and in their long journey, they left traces (their errors) to form the science of chemistry. Chemistry was born from the impossibility of understanding alchemy, and from the grotesque errors they made, an exact science arose. What would have become of science if they had fully understood it? This book explores those traces, those errors, the men who searched for the stone in dissimilar substances, and how the search for the Stone was on par with the search for Potable Gold, and what its true origins were. I invite you to delve into the history of alchemy as never before told. Its hidden history. This book is the fruit of many years of work that I wish to give to readers who are just starting out with alchemy and need to understand what this occult science is, which has been so denigrated for years, and which, however, is the most amazing perfect science that nature could offer us.
