"As a counteraction to the extremely negative perceptions of alchemy, often associated with
the occult, I demonstrate a dynamic, international community, whose operational practices,
far from being unscientific, included many of the criteria which are regarded in modern times
as essential prerequisites of science. Determining exactly what constitutes good science is
problematic, especially since it is disputed by some that science can even be distinguished
from non-science. Therefore, a Wittgensteinian 'family resembles' approach to analysis of
science has been selected, establishing the essential characteristics by which good science can
be recognised. These criteria are divided into two groups, one designated ‘core requirements’
plus further ‘desirable’ elements."
