Chimiste et théologien anglais, qui a isolé de nombreux gaz, tels que l'oxygène. Il est considéré comme l'un des fondateurs de la chimie moderne par ses contributions à l'expérimentation. Priestley (1733-1804), pasteur, théologien et chimiste, fut encouragé à publier son Histoire de l'électricité par le scientifique et homme d'État Benjamin Franklin, qu'il avait rencontré en 1766. Priestley découvrit entre autres que le charbon de bois conduit l'électricité. En 1767, il se rendit compte que l'électrisation des conducteurs reste superficielle. La même année, il devint pasteur à Leeds, dans le Yorkshire, où il commença à s'intéresser à la recherche dans le domaine des gaz. Grâce à son travail expérimental novateur, il fut élu à l'Académie des sciences en 1772, année où il publia ses Observations sur différentes espèces d'air. Sa plus grande contribution est l'isolement de l'oxygène en 1774. | [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION ON DEMAND] xxiv, 282pp. 1pl. (6) et (4) 312pp.
