The book is devoted to the medieval 'science of sciences' - alchemy. As the author shows, despite the secret nature of the activities of the alchemists and contrary to popular beliefs about the renunciation of their activities, the adepts used their science as a means of knowing and transforming God’s world, remaining most often within the framework of the Orthodox Church. The daily lives of alchemists, their theories, symbols, tools and laboratories, as well as contributions to experimental chemistry, art, architecture and literature, are vividly recreated by the famous French historian Serge Juten.
