About this listen
The Enlightenment is usually credited with the origins of chemistry. But in truth, the science blossomed gradually as early innovators distilled, smelted, forged and fermented their way through the millennia, blurring science and mysticism in search of answers to life's greatest mysteries.
Join Kit Chapman on a global quest to achieve immortality, cure all disease and transmute lead into gold as he reveals the illuminating stories of how the alchemists first broke new ground and shaped the scientific method.©2026 Kit Chapman (P)2026 Profile Books Limited
