alchemy in history, print and practice - stanton j. linden
DESCRIPTION
In discussing the origins of alchemy, historians generally view the various claims to primacy of Egypt, China and India... John Read has stated that despite many uncertainties concerning the beginnings of alchemy, 'there is no doubt that the incipient art was influenced during the Alexandrian age (4th century B.C. to 7th century A.D.) by the application of Greek philosophy to the technique of Egyptian and other ancient cultures.'TRANSCRIPT
