Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book proposes that the history of science can be viewed not as a progression of discoveries by individual scientists, but rather as a series of successive creations or endowments of matter by an arbitrary will. The author examines scientific principles, such as mechanics, chemistry, physiology, and instinct, and suggests that they may have been introduced at distinct epochs in the history of the planet. The author draws on examples from the plant and animal kingdoms to illustrate the concept of instinct as a non-conscious, yet highly complex and adaptive behavior. The book highlights the intricate and purposeful movements exhibited by plants, such as the opening and closing of flowers and the folding of leaves, and argues that these behaviors serve essential functions in the plant's survival and reproduction. The author also examines the instinctive behaviors of animals, particularly those that live in social colonies, such as ants. The book describes the remarkable organization and cooperation displayed by these insects, and suggests that their complex behaviors are guided by an innate set of rules or instincts. This book offers a thought-provoking perspective on the nature of science and the origins of life, challenging traditional views and inviting readers to consider the possibility that the world we inhabit is the product of a series of deliberate creative acts rather than a gradual process of evolution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the chemical composition of the Earth's crust, examining rocks, minerals, and geological formations of the British Isles. The author, a pioneering geologist of the Victorian era, believed that the matter that makes up the Earth has always existed but has gone through constant changes of form, from the original granite to the soil that covers the land today. The book also contains insights into the chemical composition of plants and animals, discussing the organic compounds that exist between living and dead matter. This volume is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the Earth and the nature of matter.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, a groundbreaking volume in its time, details the state of inorganic chemistry as it was understood in the 19th century. The author, a prominent chemist of the era, had an early interest in the subject from a young age and was an enthusiastic supporter of periodic law, atomic theory, and the ethical dimensions of scientific study. Against the backdrop of an intellectual community that was beginning to separate the sciences into distinct disciplines, the author contends that chemistry, geology, and physiology should be united, reflecting a holistic view of science that presaged the modern understanding of the relationships between different fields of study. This book is of prime significance to readers interested in the history of science, the development of chemistry, and the intellectual landscape of the 19th century.
