Alchemy and Hermeticism - the book's study of the relationship between early Christianity, Graeco-Egyptian alchemy and Hermeticism will interest those drawn to early esoteric traditions. Fine Arts - the book will also appeal to readers interested in a history, since it gives a high priority to visual images for understanding Egyptian religion.
