Such an interesting, objective and no-nonsense book on alchemy has never before been written, yet it somehow fits in perfectly with the older alchemical books published centuries ago. The writing style is not what you might expect; modern and informal at times, but at the same time the words have a resonance of truth about them. But the question remains: "is it true?" I can't say I know the answer. That is for you to decide. The claims are unbelievable, yet the explanations are perfectly logical.
