Publisher's Synopsis
""A New View of the Origin of Dalton's Atomic Theory: A Contribution to Chemical History"" is a book written by Henry Enfield Roscoe and published in 1896. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the development of Dalton's Atomic Theory, which is a fundamental concept in the field of chemistry. Roscoe offers a fresh perspective on the origins of the theory, challenging the traditional view that Dalton's work was entirely original. Instead, he argues that Dalton's ideas were heavily influenced by the work of other scientists, and that his contributions were more of a synthesis of existing knowledge rather than a revolutionary breakthrough. The book is considered an important contribution to the history of chemistry and provides valuable insights into the development of scientific ideas. Overall, ""A New View of the Origin of Dalton's Atomic Theory"" is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science or the foundations of modern chemistry.Together With Letters And Documents Concerning The Life And Labors Of John Dalton, Now For The First Time Published From Manuscript In The Possession Of The Literary And Philosophical Society Of Manchester.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
