We all know Harry Potter the best seller book and the movie by Warner Bros. But can you remember the Sorcerer's Stone in the first book of Harry Potter. J.K.Rowling brought this legend to wrote in her book
"Alchemy is both a philosophy and an ancient practice focused on the attempt to change base metals into gold, investigating the preparation of the "elixir of longevity", and achieving ultimate wisdom, involving the improvement of the alchemist as well as the making of several substances described as possessing unusual properties. The practical aspect of alchemy generated the basics of modern inorganic chemistry, namely concerning procedures, equipment and the identification and use of many current substances."

The main purpose of Alchemy as we know is to Turn Any Metal to Gold and The other is to create a "Panacea" or "Elixir of Life".
Nicholas Flamel is the name in list of alchemist too he created a "philosopher's stone" That's just a narrative
The alchemy is like a between of philosophy and superstition and it's against the Doctrine of Christianity so
the Art of Alchemy has been eradicated. but the most of the professor still keep secret for their student and only of their student can understand and translate it.
But nowadays the Alchemy has returned back. We can try out it more easy not so complicated if you want to know how I prefer you to visit http://www.levity.com/alchemy/
I think if we can use it to improve the technology and innovation. There's nothing wrong except use it for the wrong way and for their own gain
