Résumé : |
"As stated in the Preface, this book comprises a series of lectures originally put together seventy years ago. These have been amplified, updated and polished during the course of the author's long and distinguished life of chemical research. Sir Harold Hartley admits that there are chemists whom he would have liked to have covered (e.g., Cavendish, Wollaston, Pasteur), "but at ninety I mustn't delay any longer." Despite these omissions, this is an excellent and scholarly book, seasoned by the author's vast experience and mature judgment.
The time-span covered is approximately 1760-1860; i.e., the period including the later phlogiston theory, "Chemical Revolution," birth of the chemical atomic theory, early electrochemistry, and the beginning of organic chemistry as a distinct discipline." |
