Corpus Alchemicum Arabicum: Vol 1: Book of the Explanation of the Symbols Kitab Hall Ar-Rumuz (Corpus Alchemicum Arabicum, Volume I A)

This is the last manuscript of Dr Marie-Louise von Franz, dictated during the final years of her life. If not only contains a brilliant historical survey of alchemy since Egyptian times, but above all, a profound comment on a newly translated Arabic alchemical text from the 10th Century which is a 'Summa' of her entire life's experience and work.
