Through the work of such scientist as Lavoisier, Dalton, \u0026amp; Davy, chemical theory moved from metaphysical elements to operationally functional atoms. The book is based on chemical writings of 17th- \u0026amp; 18th-cent. chemists; references to recently published secondary works are intended for the benefit of readers who wish to enlarge their perspectives on the development of early chemical thinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 278\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.69 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 01, 2002\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52241666933010,"sku":"9780871699244","price":81.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/V9UPVaXbC49780871699244.webp?v=1777904114","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/from-elements-to-atoms-a-history-of-chemical-composition-transactions-american-philosophical-society-vol-92-part-4-hardcover","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
