Mystics of the Renaissance: Now Available!
This book is one of those works Rudolf Steiner wrote which primarily compiles and analyzes and draws from secondary sources; namely, as the title suggests, some of the mystic minds of the Renaissance, although it includes, also, Medieval minds and some contemporary work by Eckhart and others.

The Alchemical Catechism: Now Available!
This short, sweet work is actually one of the better alchemical works I have edited, at least insofar as being easily understood in its explanations of topics within alchemy such as the inferred differentiation between the heating action of digestion (manure decomposing!), the anaerobic burn (a kiln) and open flame.

For those interested in alchemy this work is highly recommended; it may be seen as a somewhat dense but... -
Rosary of the Philosophers Update: Illustrating Begins... Notes on Alchemy
One of the illustrations present in the Rosary of the Philosophers.
Illustrating has begun for the Rosary of the Philosophers and is now approximately half completed. Many of the woodcuts present show the typical Sol and Luna being combined; the process by which the philosophical (alchemical) arts are completed.
