A work of scientific philosophy by a progressive American geologist. Born in Philadelphia, Lardner Vanuxem (17921848) was the son of a French-born shipping merchant. He graduated from the Paris School of Mines in 1819 and went on to become professor of chemistry and mineralogy at South Carolina College (now the University of South Carolina). He resigned the position in 1826, going to work as a mining engineer in Mexico, and from 1836 to 1840 worked on the New York Geological Survey. He also took an interest in a variety of civil rights and religious issues, especially new religions such as Mormonism and Millerism, and he was an advocate of women's liberation. Vanuxem is best known for his Geology of New York, Third District (1842), in which he is said to have faintly anticipated Darwin's theory of evolution. As the ANB notes, while Vanuxem's most "lasting impact was strictly in the realm of field geology," he was also "deeply interested in theoretical science," as exemplified in the present work, his Essay on the Ultimate Principles of Chemistry, Natural Philosophy, and Physiology, which outlines his views on science and philosophy, with specific discussions on metallurgy.
