Nationalizing science: Adolphe Wurtz and the battle for French chemistry.
Published by Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press, 2001, 2001
Rocke, Alan J., 1948-. Nationalizing science: Adolphe Wurtz and the battle for French chemistry. Cambridge, Mass.: MIT Press, 2001, xi, 443pp., very good dust-jacket, very good light brown cloth, thick green remainder stripe along bottom foredge. "After looking at the early careers of Wurtz's two mentors, Liebig and Jean-Baptiste Dumas, Rocke describes Wurtz's life and career in the politically complex period leading up to 1853. He then discusses the turning point in Wurtz's intellectual life - his conversion to the "reformed chemistry" of Laurent, Gerhardt, and Williamson - and his efforts (social and political, as well as scientific) to persuade his colleagues of the advantages of the new chemistry. He examines the effects of political patronage (or the lack thereof) and of the French government's insufficient material support of chemistry during the middle decades of the century. From there Rocke goes on to examine the rivarly between Wurtz and Marcellin Berthelot, the debate over atoms versus equivalents, and the reasons for Wurtz's failure to win acceptance for his ideas. The story offers insights into the changing status of science in this period and helps to explain the eventual course of both French and German chemistry." (jacket text). - CONTENTS: Rise of Justus Leibig -- Rise of Jean-Baptiste Dumas -- Education of an Alsatian Chemist -- Making a Career -- Covering the Bases -- Coming to Terms with Types -- Campaign -- Berthelot -- Renovating Laboratory Science in France -- Atomic War -- Later Years -- Summing Up. 9780262182041 ISBN 0262182041.

Hardback. Condition: New.

A series of seventy articles, written by an international team of distinguished scientists, historians of science and science writers, provides an unrivalled account of the lives and personalities behind the greatest scientific breakthroughs of all time. Organized thematically, starting at the 'Universe', and moving smaller through the 'Earth' and 'Molecules and Matter' to 'Inside the Atom', with the final two sections looking at 'Life' and 'Body and Mind', it covers all the major scientific disciplines, including astronomy, biology, biochemistry, chemistry, computing, ecology, geology, medicine, neurology, physics and psychology, as well as mathematics. The Scientists will intrigue budding scientists, those fascinated by the lives of great individuals, and anyone curious to know how over the centuries we came to understand the physical world around us and inside us.
