Résumé:
"Fervently sought after by medieval alchemists, the so-called sorcerer's stone was reputed to have the power to transform base metals into gold and grant long life--even immortality. Now, discover how the elements that made up the powerful stone were hidden in bizarrely coded manuscripts and how the processes required to combine them were thought to be extremely dangerous--even deadly. Finally, explore the history behind alchemy, and learn how we owe most of our modern lab equipment and experimental techniques to the efforts of alchemists."--Container.
