First edition, with the rare supplement.
"A monumental work in which Berthelot "laid the foundation of thermochemistry" (Zeitlinger). His researches began a new epoch, and in this work he introduced the terms exo- and endo-thermic. Although a number of chemists before him had made contributions regarding the evolution and absoption of heat in chemical reactions, it was Berthelot whose experimental determinations cover almost the whole range of chemical reaction." ... "Most copies lack the important and rare Supplément" (Neville).

MACQUER. 

Elémens de chymie-théorique. 

Paris, Jean-Thomas Herissant, 1753.
More Details >
150 €

Macquer played a very important part in the development of industrial chemistry in France. He was much the most influencial phlogistonist of his day and died (1784) without changing his views, the revelations of Lavoisier notwithstanding. In this works, he shows that he believed fire to have been an element and he was one of the last scientists of importance to have supported the earth, air, fire and water theory. In his later works, he attempted to compromise with the results of Lavoisier's matchless experimental work and the theories of Stahl and his school.

This Elements of Theory is one of the most influencial chemical works of the mid-eighteenth century and a classic in the development of the chemical text.

In the present work Fourcroy summed up with remarkable lucidity the principles of antiphlogistic chemistry. "As a guide for the student attending a course of lectures, or for the older chemist who was, perhaps, uncertain of the anti-phlogistic theory, Philosophie chimique was without a rival."­Smeaton, p. 194. The book was a great international success and there were translations into Danish, Dutch, Greek, Polish, Russian, and Swedish.
This second edition is printed by the famous Dupont de Nemours in a larger type and on a superior paper than the first and is signed by the author on the verso of the title-page (Duveen).
Bound with: "Mémoire qui a remporté le premier prix au jugement de la Société de médecine de Toulouse, dans sa séance du 10 novembre 1806, sur la question proposée en ces termes : "Déterminer quels sont les avantages ou les inconvéniens de la multiplicité des nomenclatures, relativement aux travaux des anatomistes, des physiologistes et des nosographes", by J.A. Murat, published at Montpellier by A. Seguin in 1807. Rare treatise.
