Oxford scholar Tobias Churton is one of the world's prolific authors on the subjects of religion, spirituality, and esotericism. In his most recent work, The First Alchemists, he traces the origins of that most mysterious and most fascinating school of mysticism and science.
The book is a great primer for those who know little or nothing on the subject, but it's also great for those who are familiar with the topic already. Churton shares some texts that have never been translated into English for popular readers before. He digs deep into many erroneous assumptions that have long (mis)informed popular conceptions of the subject.
