Tillmann Taape's Distilling Reliable Remedies, Hieronymus Brunschwig's Liber de arte distillandi (1500) Between Alchemical Learning and Craft Practice, published in the peer-reviewed journal Ambix in 2014, is a scholarly study of Brunschwig's 1500 distillation treatise and its place between learned alchemical theory and practical craft knowledge. Its authority rests on standard peer review in Ambix, the leading specialist journal for the history of alchemy and early chemistry, and on Taape's direct engagement with Brunschwig's original text. It addresses this one treatise and its context specifically, so a broader claim about alchemical distillation practice generally needs wider sourcing.
