Personally, I am quite fond of Sorcerer's Stone: A Beginner's Guide to Alchemy, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Alchemy, and The Emerald Tablet: Alchemy for Personal Transformation by Dennis William Hauck. Great substance for the beginner, by an author with solid credentials on the subject.
Hauck is an instructor in the Alchemy Study Program and serves on the Steering Committee of the International Alchemy Guild. He also serves as project curator for the Alchemy Museum, opening in 2016 at Rosicrucian Park in San Jose.
Amazon is a good start. This book is Mircea Eliade could be a title and if you like visuals, buy Alchemy & Mysticism, 576 pages with color images and some explanation. From there on, try to see what it is that interests you.
Asclepius: The Perfect Discourse of Hermes Trismegistus
dude u dont know it yet? yeah there's a more recent popular version of alchemy with no labwork at all often called spiritual alchemy (thanks to c.g. jung &etc). however paracelsus and alchemists before 19th century made their medicines using real furnace. try this book, by Lawrence Principe (Phd in history of science and organic chemistry) or watch his video on vimeo and youtube
dunno what the opinion is round here but I like this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Alchemy-Medieval-Alchemists-their-Royal/dp/0261665456
I read a lovely book titled The Book of Alchemy by Francis Melville that was very resourceful but not an information overload
Here is a pretty good source.
Maybe a little far out for some, but hey; That's what you're here for right?
