Condition: as new. Amsterdam : Royal Academy of Arts and Sciences, 2002. Hardcover. vi,237 pp. (History of science and scholarship in the Netherlands volume 3). Condition : new. - Herman Boerhaave (1688-1738), holder of three professorships in medicine, botany and chemistry at the University of Leiden, was the most important medical teacher after Galen. His fame reached all over Europe and further afield. Boerhaave was also known as a very religious man. Yet, historians of science and medicine have not paid much attention to Boerhaave s Calvinism. They have stressed the mechanical aspects of his medicine but have neglected his religious beliefs and those of his viewpoints that are alien to modern science. However, this book shows that Boerhaave's natural philosophy, his chemistry and alchemy as well as their uses in medicine and methodology are all rooted in his Calvinism. In particular, Boerhaave's ideas on the divine nature of fire, the chemical theory of menstrua and the idea of seminal principles demonstrate that Boerhaave presented a Calvinist picture of the world in which the wisdom of God can be seen in the powers peculiar to every creature. Condition : as new copy. ISBN 9789069843421. Keywords : HISTORY OF SCIENCE, Boerhaave, Herman (1668-1738).

Condition: new. Amsterdam : Royal Dutch Academy of Arts and Sciences, 2002. Hardcover. xvi,302 pp. ills. (History of science and scholarship in the Netherlands, 4). - This book narrates the story of pioneering scientists in the Netherlands, who reached a profound and comprehensive understanding of fluid mixture criticality and phase separation within a brief time span around the end of the nineteenth century. This achievement was the consequence of the felicitous collaboration of two Dutch physicists and Nobel prize winners, J.D. van der Waals (1837-1923) at the University of Amsterdam, and H. Kamerlingh Onnes (1853-1926) at the University of Leiden. Between 1890 and 1906, the Dutch School reached an understanding of phase behavior and criticality of fluid mixtures that was far ahead of its time. Condition : new copy. ISBN 9789069843575.

Condition: new. Amsterdam : Koninklijke Nederlandse Akademie van Wetenschappen, 2007. Hardcover. vi,664 pp. (History of science and scholarship in the Netherlands, 10). English translation : Heike Kamerlingh Onnes : een biografie : de man van het absolute nulpunt. - Amsterdam : Bakker, 2005. Heavy item, additional shipping costs apply for overseas shipments. Condition : new. - In 1908, Heike Kamerlingh Onnes (1853-1926) liquefied helium for the first time, briefly rendering his Dutch laboratory 'the coldest place on earth'. Freezing physics is the first book to tell the story of Leiden University's famed cryogenics laboratory and the man behind it, whose scientific accomplishments earned him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1913. The central question in this book is how Kamerlingh Onnes was able to succeed so brilliantly in developing his cryogenics laboratory - undoubtedly an exceptional feat in terms of its scale and its almost industrial approach in the Netherlands of the last quarter of the nineteenth century. A related question is what determined his success - his abilities as a scientist, his organisational talent, or his personality? This fascinating portrayal of Kamerlingh Onnes, the man and the scientist, traces his storied career from his first experiments with helium to his later work that opened up unexplored territories of extreme cold, magnetism, and thermodynamics - and cleared the path for the eventual discovery of superconductivity in 1911. Condition : new copy. ISBN 9789069845197. Keywords : , physics.

Condition: as new. Amsterdam : KNAW, 2005. Hardcover. x,512 pp. 60 ills. (History of science and scholarship in the Netherlands, volume 7). Condition : new. - Simon Stevin (1548-1620) was one of the leading scholars of his time, developing theoretical innovations in mathematics and physics as well as practical innovations in civil engineering and military technology. Less well known is the project that Stevin worked on during the last twenty years of his life, a treatise on architecture and town planning. The earliest mention of Huysbou occurs in the first volume of Stevin's work on mathematics and other natural sciences, Wisconstighe Ghedachtenissen (Mathematical Memoirs), published in 1605. This study deals with Stevin's unfinished, and until now only partly revealed architectural treatise. But few people know about his interest in architecture, as documented in "De Huysbou, a project that occupied the last twenty years of Stevin's life. This new translation includes passages from Stevin's text, an extensive bibliography, and an in-depth analysis of Stevin's theories of urban planning within a larger European context. It will be a valuable resource for historians of Stevin's work, as well as those interested in Dutch and European architecture and urban planning. Condition : as new copy. ISBN 9789069844329. Keywords : ARCHITECTURE, Architecture, Architektur.

Organized thematically, the book covers a wide variety of topics, including the structural development of Carboniferous basins, the paleontology of those periods, and Carboniferous and Permian timescales and global correlations. Environmental and climatic changes had their effects on organisms and plants. Offering an overview of the latest research on rock formation that took place over 250 million years ago. This ancient sediment, which provides much of the mineral resources we use today, is a key indicator of massive environmental shifts that occurred around the creation of the super-continent Pangea. Organized thematically, the book covers a wide variety of topics, including the structural development of Carboniferous basins, the paleontology of those periods, and Carboniferous and Permian timescales and global correlations.
