A scholar of esotericism and the history of ideas, Kiritsis takes readers on an intellectual and historical journey, tracing alchemy's evolution from its early origins in Hellenistic Egypt to its influence on modern chemistry, psychology, and spirituality. Through meticulous research and accessible storytelling, The Riddle of Alchemy explores the key figures, texts, and practices that shaped alchemical thought, shedding light on its true purpose: the transformation of both matter and the self.

While alchemy is often associated with the fabled quest to turn lead into gold, Kiritsis reveals that its deeper meaning lies in the pursuit of enlightenment and self-transformation. By analyzing historical texts, philosophical interpretations, and contemporary applications, he highlights how alchemical symbolism continues to permeate psychology, holistic medicine, and even modern science. From Carl Jung's integration of alchemical imagery in analytical psychology to the rediscovery of ancient herbal remedies, alchemy remains as relevant as ever.

The Riddle of Alchemy is more than just a history book - it is an invitation to rethink how ancient wisdom can inform contemporary thought. Historians, scientists, and seekers of knowledge will find Kiritsis' book a compelling read for why alchemy remains an essential part of our intellectual and spiritual heritage.
