Unfortunately, there is no book titled ""Nicholas Flamel and the Philosopher's Stone by Flamel, Nicolas."" It seems to be a confusion between the character Nicholas Flamel from the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling and the real-life alchemist Nicolas Flamel. However, there is a book titled ""The Alchemyst: The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel"" by Michael Scott, which follows the adventures of teenage twins Josh and Sophie as they discover that the legend of Nicholas Flamel and the Philosopher's Stone is real and embark on a dangerous journey to protect it from falling into the wrong hands. The book is a blend of fantasy, mythology, and historical fiction, incorporating characters and creatures from various cultures and legends. It is the first book in a six-part series and has been praised for its fast-paced action, intricate world-building, and engaging characters.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

2009 reprint of 1624 edition. Nicolas Flamel was a successful scrivener and manuscript-seller who developed a posthumous reputation as an alchemist due to his reputed work on the philosopher's stone.An alchemical book published in London in 1624 as Exposition of the Hieroglyphical Figures was attributed to Flamel. It is a collection of designs purportedly commissioned by Flamel for a tympanum at the Cimetière des Innocents in Paris, long disappeared at the time the work was published. Some considered Flamel the most accomplished of the European alchemists. The essence of his reputation is that he succeeded at the two magical goals of alchemy -- that he made the Philosopher's Stone which turns lead into gold, and that he and his wife Perenelle achieved immortality.

I, Nicholas Flamel, a scrivener of Paris, in the year 1414, in the reign of our gracious Prince Charles the VIth, whom God preserve; and after the death of my faithful partner Perenelle, am seized with a desire and a delight, in remembrance of her, and in your behalf, dear nephew, to write out the whole magistery of the secret of the Powder of Projection, or the Philosophical Tincture, which God hath willed to impart to his very insignificant servant, and which I have found out, as thou also wilt find out in working as I shall declare unto you. And for this cause do not forget to pray to God to bestow on thee the understanding of the reason of the truth of nature, which thou wilt see in this book, wherein I have written the secrets word for word, sheet by sheet, and also as I have done and wrought with thy dear aunt Perenelle, whom I very much regret. Take heed before thou workest, to seek the right way as a man of understanding. The reason of nature is Mercury, Sun and Moon, as I have said in my book, in which are those figures which thou seest under the arches of the Innocents at Paris. But I erred greatly upwards of 23 years and a half, in labouring without being able to marry the Moon, that is quicksilver, to the Sun, and to extract from them the seminal dung, which is a deadly poison; for I was then ignorant of the agent or medium, in order to fortify the Mercury: for without this agent, Mercury is as common water.
