About this product

Product Information

"Every now and then, a book comes along that's almost impossible to categorize, like Hoke's beautifully illustrated gem, a strange marriage of alchemical lore and psychology, science and wonder. ... It gradually reveals itself as a sly philosophical meditation on human consciousness, bringing in concepts from Tibetan Buddhism and quantum physics."--"Publishers Weekly" Starred Review

I’m not for sure what happened? I ordered the book and then I received a message that I had gotten a refund. A generic message with refund stated, damaged or out of stock. Would have been nice to receive a personal message explaining. I have boughten from them before and never had a problem. Fast delivery 📦, great prices and communication. Hopefully it will stay be that way.

My name is Visitor in The Museum of Lost Wonder
A wonderful magical book about all the important stuff in life. I can't say anything bad this book. Is it the perfect book? No but it tries so very hard to be the best it can be that I can't help falling in love with every beautiful page. Jeff Hoke must be one of the best Curator's in the world and his writing and art is a beacon of imagination in a world that has lost so much wonder.

Don't Bother--No Wonder
If you think this would be entertaining--and exciting, and wonderful? Don't. It leads one on short paths with only minor insights--and those models you are supposed to build by cutting up the book? Forget it. Don't even try. A great idea perhaps, but the execution is subpar.

Fantastic!!
This is a wonderful book not only for the imagination but for the mind as well. It's insite to the collecitive mind is a wonder. It makes you think about things you have probably forgotten to think about.

The Museum of Lost Wonder
What do you think of when you hear the word museum? Do you see glass encased exhibits with little tags of text beside various artifacts? Can you hear someone complaining about the loud whispers that can be heard? Can you feel the boredom setting in? The Museum of Lost Wonder is an example of a completely different kind of museum. The pages of this book lead the reader on a journey of exploration and freedom of thought. Instead of stuffy scientific displays, this museum encourages the visitor to wonder and ask all of those questions that they always wanted to ask but thought they'd sound foolish or be glared at for even coming up with the idea. This book is divided into eight alchemy themed exhibit halls: Calinatio (technology), Solutio (aquaria), Coagulatio (zoological), Sublimatio ... What do you think of when you hear the word museum? Do you see glass encased exhibits with little tags of text beside various artifacts? Can you hear someone complaining about the loud whispers that can be heard? Can you feel the boredom setting in? The Museum of Lost Wonder is an example of a completely different kind of museum. The pages of this book lead the reader on a journey of exploration and freedom of thought. Instead of stuffy scientific displays, this museum encourages the visitor to wonder and ask all of those questions that they always wanted to ask but thought they'd sound foolish or be glared at for even coming up with the idea. This book is divided into eight alchemy themed exhibit halls: Calinatio (technology), Solutio (aquaria), Coagulatio (zoological), Sublimatio (observatory), Mortificatio (history), Separatio (science and faith), Conjunctio (arts), and Circulatio (the entrance and exit). Within each of these sections readers explore scientific, mythological, spiritual, and fantastic renditions that explain our world. Many of the exercises encourage visitors to use their creativity to come up with alternative explanations, to explore their own questions, to try various experiments, and to construct models of the various exhibit halls.
