G in plastic report covers. From the report: "As the present sketch is intended less for chemists than for others who may be confused at the appearance of the formulae of… organic compounds given in modern chemical essays, the author may be pardoned in citing facts and formulae trite to chemists. He would also take occasion here to accredit to the Lehrbuch of Graham Otto many of the illustrations, as well as some of the arguments, employed in the present sketch.".

Wetherill, The Manufacture of Vinegar. Its theory and practice, with especial reference to the quick process. Edition originale. Charles M. Wetherill (4 novembre 1825 - 5 mars 1871) était un chimiste américain. En 1862, il a été nommé le premier chef de la division chimique du nouveau département américain de l'agriculture, une unité qui est devenue par la suite la Food and Drug Administration. Né à Philadelphie, Pennsylvanie en 1825, Wetherill était le fils de Charles et Margaret. Il est diplômé de l'Université de Pennsylvanie en 1845 et obtient un doctorat en chimie organique de l'Université de Giessen en 1848. Il est décédé le 5 mars 1871 à South Bethlehem, en Pennsylvanie. Il a travaillé comme chimiste et a fini par devenir professeur de chimie à l'université de Lehigh. Il a également étudié les minéraux, le gaz d'éclairage, l'adipocire, les aliments et d'autres produits. En 1853, il ouvre un laboratoire de chimie pour son enseignement privé et ses analyses. La même année, il est élu à l'American Philosophical Society et reçoit un doctorat honorifique du New York Medical College. En 1862, le président Abraham Lincoln nomme Wetherill le premier chimiste de la division chimique du nouveau département de l'agriculture. Ce petit groupe est finalement devenu la Food and Drug Administration. Wetherill a essayé d'améliorer l'industrie du vin, les engrais et d'autres produits, et il a commencé à enquêter sur la falsification des produits agricoles. Il étudia également la géologie, notamment le fossile Itacolumite. Il a fait une analyse chimique de l'eau de soufre blanc, et en 1860, il a publié le traité The Manufacture of Vinegar. Il est l'auteur de plusieurs ouvrages.

Contact seller5-star seller[3] pp. Bifolium. 8.5 x 10.5 inches. In his January 6th, 1855 letter to Charles Harris, M.D., of Somerville, NJ, Wetherill illustrates the painstaking process of establishing reliable calculations in the field of chemistry, advising Harris on his use of the standard references. He cites both the values and the shortcomings a var…iety of published tables, and provides a few examples of streamlined formulas. Charles M. Wetherill (1825-1871) was a professor of chemistry at Lehigh University. He authored a number of works, including "Description of an Apparatus for Organic Analysis by Illuminating Gas; And on the Use of This Gas in Experimental Laboratories," (1854) & "The Manufacture of Vinegar: Its Theory and Practice, with Especial Reference to the Quick Process," (1860). In 1862, President Lincoln appointed Wetherill as the first chemist for the Chemical Division in the new Department of Agriculture, which would eventually become the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). "That position early on focused on means to improve the wine industry, fertilizers, and other endeavors, but soon the chemist began investigating the adulteration of agricultural commodities. The position eventually grew into a Division and, by the turn of the 20th century, into the Bureau of Chemistry. It was the Bureau that Congress charged to carry out the 1906 Pure Food and Drugs Act, the milestone that marks the beginning of the modern Food and Drug Administration." (FDA Organizational Histories). Also see Philip J. Hilts: Protecting America's Health: The FDA, Business and One Hundred Years of Regulation. (University of North Carolina Press 2004). About very good, chipped and torn along edges and folds, with minor effect on text, moderate soiling, staining, and ink bleed through.
