This book was released on 2016-09-09 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Chemistry, Vol. 1 of 2 It is natural to feel a desire to be acquainted with the origin and the progress of such a science; and to know something of the history and character of those numerous votaries to whom it is indebted for its pro gress and improvement. The object of this little Work is to gratify these laudable wishes, by taking a rapid View of the progress of Chemistry, from its first rude and disgraceful beginnings till it has reached its pre sent state of importance and dignity. I shall divide the subject into fifteen chapters. In'the first I shall treat of Alchymy, which may be considered as the in auspicious commencement of the science, and which, in fact, consists of little else than an account of dupes and impostors; every where so full of fiction and oh scurity, that it is a hopeless and almost impossible task to reach the truth. In the second Chapter I shall endeavour to point out the few small chemical rills, which were known to the ancients. These I shall fol low in their progress, in the succeeding chapters, till at last, augmented by an infinite number of streams owing at once from a thousand different quarters, they have swelled to the mighty river, which now ows ou majestically, wafting wealth and information to the civilized world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Chemistry The first edition of this book appeared in 1894. While it has passed through a number of editions since, there has been no attempt to bring it up to date nor to revise it in any way, and although there has been much to preoccupy me, especially in other lines Of work, I recognize the fact that there has been no excuse for such neglect. It has now been entirely rewritten on a changed plan of arrangement and made to cover the great progress in the science which has taken place since it first appeared. Some material considered unnecessary has been eliminated so that it might be kept within the same compass that has proved so convenient for those who could not devote to the subject the time required by the larger treatises.

This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Introduction to Chemistry IN the preparation of this volume the purpose has been to present an historical account of the more important facts and theories of chemistry, as these disclosed themselves to the original workers in this branch of science. No attempt has been made to write a formal History of Chemistry, either as a survey of the various periods into which the history of the science may be divided, or in the more usual biographical form. The material has been classified by subjects rather than by authors; but it will be found that under this system the work of individual experimenters is described quite as fully as in a biographical survey, whilst in the case of certain chemists, such as Priestley, Lavoisier and gay-lussac, it has been possible to include detailed descriptions of experimental work which could scarcely have found a place in a brief biography. The Biographical Index provides a key to the work of each author as it is described in the text, and contains most of the essential items for an account in narrative form of the achievements of the great pioneers of chemistry.

Of his theological, metaphysical, and political writings it is not our business in this work to take any notice. His scientific works treat of electricity, optics, and chemistry. As an electrician he was respectable; as an Optician, a compiler; as a chemist, a discoverer. He wrote also a book on perspective which I have never had an opportunity of perusing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Chemistry From the Earliest Times The late Dr. Campbell Brown was accustomed, as part of his Chemical Course at Liverpool University, to deliver a series of Lectures on the History of Chemistry. These lectures were to him a labour of love, and were prepared after much research into the original authorities, including many old and rare treatises. 'it was his intention, when release from the duties of his Chair should have afforded him the necessary leisure, to revise the lectures and to put them into shape for publication. Death put a sudden term to his labours before the period of leisure arrived, and the lectures were left in the form of manu script notes, more or less complete, but not in that perfect shape which Dr. Campbell Brown would have wished if the History were to be published.

This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From man's first exploration of natural materials and their transformations to today's materials science, chemistry has always been the central discipline that underpins both the physical and biological sciences, as well as technology. In this Very Short Introduction, William H Brock traces the unique appeal of this fundamental science throughout history. Covering alchemy, early-modern chemistry, pneumatic chemistry and Lavoisier's re-interpretation of chemical change, the rise of organic and physical chemistry, and the transforming power of synthesis, Brock explores the extraordinary and often puzzling transformations of natural and artificial materials, as well as the men and women who experimented, speculated, and explained matter and change. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

Excerpt: ... chemistry the experiment stations and laboratories established now by the governments of every civilized country. So great a number of trained scientific workers, whose entire time can be given to experiments and to researches, must bring about a great increase of knowledge in this very difficult field of work. PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY. The study, from a chemical standpoint, of the substances and processes in the animal body presents even greater difficulties and complexities than the similar study of plants. These two lines of study have been in a measure mutually helpful. At first the same chemists were often engaged in both, as de Saussure, Chevreul, Liebig, and others. They have now become very distinct and separate fields of research. The Problems to be solved In order to lay a foundation for physiological chemistry, it has been necessary first to have some knowledge of the multitudinous substances occurring in animal bodies, and, if possible, to learn the conditions under which these different bodies were formed. Several stumblingblocks present themselves here. The delicacy and instability of many of these compounds, the possibility that their extraction from the living organism or the killing of the organism might cause radical changes in them, and the extreme complexity and probable size of the molecules, which render it difficult to decide between the several possible formulas derived by analyses, are among the problems to be faced. Because of the last-mentioned difficulty some of the most important substances occurring in animals have still no certain formula assigned them. Furthermore, there have, of course, been serious difficulties in the way of separation and purification. Condition of the Science.--It is therefore not...
