Aggiungi al carrelloHardcover. Condizione: Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Nicolas Là mery was a 17th-century French chemist known for his chemistry theories on acids, pharmaceutical medicines, and his works medical drugs and chemistry. Perhaps his best and most important book was his 'Cours de Chymie'. More commonly known as 'Chemistry Lessons,' thi…s book was the standard text for studies in chemistry. In this book, Lemery provides methods for preparing chemicals, medicines, and various physics experiments. Each method includes an explanation and commentary for proper execution and preparation. He also spends some time discussing astrology and alchemy, such as the influence of the planets on metals and the elusive goal of creating a Philosopher's Stone.

Aggiungi al carrelloNouvelle edition, avec figures. 4to, pp. xxiv + 1019 + 400 engravings on 25 plates. Contemporary full mottled calf, rebacked with original gilt spine laid down. Complete with half-title, engraved frontis and title page. Dr. Lemery (1645 -1715), French (al)chemist who reintroduced theory to chemistry in order to bridge alchemy an…d chemistry, making the emergence of the science of chemistry, independent of medicine, possible. The final separation from medicine, however, had to await the work of Boyle. Lemery wrote the most popular French chemistry textbook, Cours de Chimie (1675), and used a mechanical atomistic interpretation of chemical reactions. The first edition of the Dictionnaire was published in Paris (1698).
