Alchemy and Social Change

A new attitude towards the material world emerged in late antiquity through the strange theories and practices of the alchemists. Did their attempts of achieve the elixir of life, the philosophers stone, and the transmutation of metals help give birth to science and the modern world? Our ICSS member, Lew Finzel, asks, What if Alchemy Lives? Implications for: ECOLOGY, PSYCHOLOGY, LITERATURE, SEXUALITY, PHARMACOLOGY.
