While admiring Pedro's commitment, claims about "Occult Chemistry" being 
"vindicated" have been long made and never substantiated (they go back to 
Jinarajadasa's time). 
A search through the standard reference sources on scientific literature 
(e.g. "Science Citation Index") discloses very few scholarly, 
peer-reviewed papers on the subject - all of them dismishing "Occult 
Chemistry" as nonsense.
The claims ("a book is about to be published...') are either fantasy - or 
can we have the references to scholarly, peer-reviewed papers which 
vindicate "Occult Chemistry"?
By the way, the claims about the influence of Leadbeater on Kandinsky and 
Mondrian are generally wildly magnified. There was some influence but it 
had nothing to do with either artist accepting Leadbeater's clairvoyant 
claims.
