Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Two volumes. 6 engraved plates. Contemporary calf, lacking labels, joints restored. A very good copy. FIRST EDITION IN ENGLISH of Macquer s Elémens de chymie-theorique (1749) and Elémens de chymie-pratique (1751), translated by Andrew Reid from the 1756 editions. The theoretical section lays out the principles of chemistry, and the practical section presents a course of chemistry including engravings of apparatus. Macquer was one of the leading chemists of his day, and his works were fundamental texts in the field. He made notable contributions in the application of chemistry to industry. Macquer wrote his Elements for people with no previous chemical knowledge. He began with an account of the four elements, air, water, earth, and fire (of which phlogiston was a modification), briefly discussed affinity, and the considered compound substances in order of their increasing complexity, mineral, vegetable, and animal. He was careful not to mention any substance before acquainting the reader with it: for example, acids, alkalis, and salts were described before metals, so in the account of acids their power of dissolving metals was not mentioned (DSB). This first edition in English is scarce. Thomas Jefferson owned this edition. He called for the book in his recommended library for an English gentleman.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In the fifth edition of 'Elements of the Theory and Practice of Chymistry,' Pierre Joseph Macquer presents a systematic and comprehensive exploration of chemical principles during the Enlightenment period. Written with clarity and precision, the text is both an instructional guide and a philosophical discourse, blending empirical observation with theoretical constructs. Macquer emphasizes the experimental foundations of chemistry, bridging the gap between alchemical traditions and the emerging scientific methodologies of the 18th century. Through detailed illustrations, practical examples, and meticulous explanations, he fosters an accessible understanding of chemical processes pivotal to the burgeoning field of modern science. Pierre Joseph Macquer, a prominent figure in the scientific community of his time, was deeply influenced by the intellectual currents of the Enlightenment. His contributions to the field of chemistry, particularly in the realm of medicine and pharmacy, underscore his commitment to advancing knowledge through methodical experimentation. Macquer's integration of theoretical frameworks with practical applications reflects his desire to democratize science, making it available to both scholars and practitioners alike. Highly recommended for historians of science, students, and practitioners, this work serves as a cornerstone in the study of chemistry. Macquer's text not only elucidates foundational chemical concepts but also provides readers with insight into the transformative period of the 18th century, encouraging a renewed appreciation for the intersection of theory and practice in scientific inquiry. 488 pp. Englisch.
