Sinopsis

“If you really want to learn the basic principles of practical alchemy, Frater Albertus’ Alchemist’s Handbook is literally is worth its weight in gold.”—from the foreword by Israel Regardie, author of The Golden Dawn: The Original Account of the Teachings, Rites, and Ceremonies of the Hermetic OrderThe Alchemist's Handbook has long been considered a modern-day classic on the actual practice of alchemy since its first publication in 1960. The book still stands as a groundbreaking work presenting in clear, concise language a practical manual of working knowledge that was formerly handed down only under oath of secrecy.The scope of alchemical work is to provide both a means to synthesize all the other sciences and the necessary training of the intellectual and spiritual faculties. “Hermetic philosophy, with its practical arcanum,” writes Frater Albertus, “repeats itself over and over again in the ancient axiom ‘As above, so below. As below, so above.’"The Alchemist's Handbook discusses in detail:The basic fundamental principles of alchemy.A guide to the formation of an inexpensive home laboratory with illustrations of the necessary equipment.Step-by-step instructions for the work of the Lesser Circulation, the alchemical transformation within the plant kingdom.  “The teachings of Frater Albertus are part of a lineage that traces back to Rosicrucian sources and much earlier and The Alchemist’s Handbook is still the best introduction to that lineage. If you feel the call of Alchemy and want real information on the subject, this is definitely the book you will want to read, reread, and read again. It may just turn out to be the book that changes your life.”—From the foreword by Robert Allen Bartlett, author of Real Alchemy: A Primer of Practical AlchemyFirst published by Weiser Books in 1974, this new Weiser Classics edition includes a new foreword by Robert Allen Bartlett, author of Real Alchemy.

    I Think, Therefore I’m Wrong: Descartes and the Birth of Overconfidence is your gloriously sarcastic, brutally honest, and deeply unhinged guide to the man who launched modern philosophy with one anxious thought spiral and never looked back. 
    René Descartes: French, wealthy, suspicious of everything, and armed with just enough Latin to convince the world that his personal identity crisis was actually a groundbreaking intellectual framework. From doubting the entire universe to claiming God exists because the idea of God felt right, Descartes pioneered a system so elegantly flawed it haunted philosophers for centuries—and now you get to enjoy the wreckage. 
    In this book, Sophia Blackwell (Kant You Not, Leibniz’s Monads) takes you on a laugh-out-loud demolition tour of: 
    The Four-Step Method of Doubt, also known as gaslighting the cosmos 
    The Cogito, or how to accidentally make thinking sound smug 
    God as epistemological tech support 
    Mind-body dualism, or “what if you’re just a haunted skeleton?” 
    Descartes’ legacy in science, psychology, AI, and every freshman who says “I'm not my body, bro.” 
    Whether you’re a philosophy student, a recovering Cartesian, or just here to watch the metaphysical world burn, this book explains Descartes’ ideas the way they were always meant to be understood: with sarcasm, side-eye, and a glass of wine. 
    I think, therefore I spiral. Let’s go

    Since protestors ripped through the Capitol Building in 2021, the threat of constitutional crisis has loomed over our nation. The foundational tenets of American democracy seem to be endangered, and many citizens believe this danger is unprecedented in our history. But Americans have weathered many constitutional crises, often accompanied by the same violence and chaos experienced on January 6. However, these crises occurred on the state level. In Sedition, Marcus Alexander Gadson uncovers these episodes of civil unrest and examines how state governments handled them. 
     
     
     
    Sedition takes listeners through six instances of constitutional crisis: The Buckshot War, Dorr's Rebellion, Bleeding Kansas, the Brooks-Baxter War, a successful terrorist campaign to overthrow South Carolina's government during Reconstruction, and the Wilmington Insurrection of 1898. He chronicles these turbulent periods of violent anti-government conflict on the state level, explaining what it was like to experience coup d'états, rival governments fighting in the streets, and disputed elections that gave way to violence. As he addresses constitutional breakdown, Gadson urges Americans to pay increased attention to the risk of constitutional instability in their home states. His sweeping historical analysis provides new insights on the fight to protect democracy today.

    Based on a wide range of scholarship, stories from dozens of women, and Sproles's personal experience from thirty-four years as a professor, department chair, and dean, Nine Principles offers advice on facing down impostor syndrome; avoiding social isolation; building networks of mentors; preparing for tenure; balancing teaching, scholarship, and home life; and more.
