Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the Royal Society in the nineteenth century is published as a full-length account for the first time in this book. Dr Marie Boas Hall has meticulously explored this fascinating period, using the Royal Society's own records. In 1800 the Royal Society was a leisurely club for scientists, scholars/politicians and patrons of science and learning. More important, it was a centre for improving knowledge of the natural sciences, and adviser to the Government on scientific matters. The first half of the book describes the manner of transition; the struggles and controversies among the most eminent scientists of the day. The second half concerns the emergence of the Royal Society as once again a leader of scientific opinion, as the recognised intermediary between science and Government, and as the chief advisory body to the Government. In the nineteenth century it became, in fact, the national academy of science.

Book excerpt: An engaging new history of the Royal Society of London, the club that created modern scientific thought Founded in 1660 to advance knowledge through experimentally verified facts, The Royal Society of London is now one of the preeminent scientific institutions of the world. It published the world's first science journal, and has counted scientific luminaries from Isaac Newton to Stephen Hawking among its members. However, the road to truth was often bumpy. In its early years-while bickering, hounding its members for dues, and failing to create its own museum-members also performed sheep to human blood transfusions, and experimented with unicorn horns. In his characteristically accessible and lively style, Adrian Tinniswood charts the Society's evolution from poisoning puppies to the discovery of DNA, and reminds us of the increasing relevance of its motto for the modern world: Nullius in Verba-Take no one's word for it.

Book excerpt: The Royal Society began informally in London around 1645 when a number of scientists, including Robert Boyle, Christopher Wren and Robert Moray, met to discuss the then new experimental philosophy. Boyle described the Royal Society, as it officially became upon receiving the Royal Charter from Charles II in 1660, as 'our invisible college or the philosophical college'. Charles Richard Weld (1813-69) was the assistant secretary and librarian of the Royal Society from 1845 until 1861 and his well-written History of the Royal Society was published in 1848. It is the work for which he is best known. Compiled from a wealth of authentic documents such as the Royal Society journal, register, council books and letters, the History contains detailed memoirs of the presidents, including Robert Boyle, Sir Isaac Newton, Roger Bacon and Sir Humphrey Davy. Each memoir examines the scientist's life, experiments and involvement with the Royal Society. The work details the development of western science from the twelfth century to the mid-nineteenth century and examines the role of the Royal Society in this development. One interesting chapter reveals the foundation of an early Society in Italy, which was eventually discontinued. An appendix contains the 'Descriptive Catalogue of the Portraits in the Possession of the Royal Society', which was compiled by order of the council in 1860. This two-volume work is an essential reference tool for all historians of science and scholars interested in the history of one of the world's oldest continuous running societies. --comprehensive historiography of the Royal Society --a vital reference work for historians of science --contains an extensive index --14 engraved illustrations

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1913, this book by Sir Henry Trueman Wood (1845-1929) is widely acknowledged as the first historical account of the Royal Society of Arts. Spanning 125 years, from the Society's foundation in 1754, through the Great Exhibition of 1851, it terminates with the start of Wood's own term as secretary in 1879. As well as its famous association with manufacturing, the Society's involvement with forestry and agriculture is also addressed. Containing not only an authoritative chronology of the RSA, but also comprehensive lists of past officials and a preface by its Chairman, Lord Sanderson, this work provides rare insights into the motivations and aspirations of generations of British engineers and artists. Illustrated by 28 full-page illustrations and 19 smaller vignettes depicting members, maps, medals and inventions, this study is underpinned by the author's own powerful conviction that, when combined, art and science can transform the world.
