Cloth. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. Previous owners name to inside cover. Foxing to end inside covers and edge. Sunned spine to cloth. Blue cloth with gilt lettering. The principal character in this book, Antoine-Laurent Lavoiser, contributed largely to physics and chemistry; he may also be regarded as the virtual founder of the science of nutrition, in the sense that he originated methods of enquiry in this field which were the baasis of almost all later developments. There exists today a large and growing number of men and women professionally concered with the science of nutrition in its various branches; many of these, I felt, would be glad to learn more of a man who did remarkable pioneer work in their subject - a man who accomplished a great deal in a short lifetime and died tragically. Since it is not possible to discuss the achievements of any scientific worker without reference to those of his contemporaries whose work dovetails with his own, I have included two other major characters - Joseph Priestely and Henry Cavendish. The life-histories of these two men are comparatively familiar to the English reader, so that the main excuse for this book must be that it portrays an eighteenth century French scientist who has been given relatively little attention by English writers. Illustrated. 227 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
