This s a fun book to look at and read through. It has fold out pages which one could turn into objects, except that you feel you might destroy the book in the process. It is the outgrowth of an alchemical museum vision, which sets forth to transform our looking and understanding of the world we live in. There are seven exhibit halls, which are named in Latin, and which I have tagged. The English parallels are inspiration, reflection, introspection, imagination, melancholy, distinction, illumination, recirculation and one obviously is to circulate through these on ones life path.

One of my all-time favorite books, truly a museum of science, psychology, and esotericism. ( )
