It is a book published by Renmin University of China Press on April 1 day, 2065438, written by Bertington (UK).
In chapter 16, the author describes the basic course of chemical development from ancient Egypt to 1930s.
This book is rich in content and informative, covering from ancient alchemy to valence theory in19th century, and then to periodic law and atomic structure in 20th century. This book has a clear context and an objective and fair viewpoint, aiming at giving a concise and authoritative overview of the history of chemistry, thus helping readers to have an overall impression of the history of chemistry.
2. Basic theory of chemistry
It is a book published by Peking University Publishing House on August 2008 1 by Antoine Laurent lavoisier. This book mainly talks about the composition of the atmosphere and the chemistry of metal objects.
This series of works is a scientific classic that has stood the test of history for a long time since the birth of modern science in the Renaissance. In order to distinguish it from the word "classic" which is widely used now, we call it "the original book of science". What we call "classics" here is different from what fans call "classics" and from what performing artists recite.
Popular songs popular with fans belong to "contemporary classics", but they are actually fashionable things, and their meanings are just the opposite of what we call traditional classics.
Most of the "scientific classics" recited by performing artists are essays expressing scientists' feelings and attitudes towards life, and even dramatic lines reflecting scientists' lives. They may be well-known and whether they belong to the classics in the humanities field, but they have little scientific content. The speeches of famous scientists or widely circulated works are not all scientific classics.
3. Chemistry and Society
2065438+June 2008, published by Chemical Industry Press, edited by Catherine H. Middlecamp (USA).
This book discusses the basic knowledge of chemistry and the role of chemistry in social hot issues and topics that people are generally concerned about, and introduces some basic knowledge of chemistry, so that readers can better understand and make reasonable judgments on its potential and danger.
4. Suspicious chemists
It is a book published by Peking University Publishing House on June, 2007 10 by Boyle.
The book * * * is divided into six parts, plus "preface" and "conclusion", which shows Boyle's questioning and criticism of the Aristotelian school's elemental theory or the chemist's elemental theory at that time. Although it is very hesitant to express its philosophical views on particles and "measure truth with reason".
But its criticism based on experiments is very clear and sharp. Although it did not encourage chemists in the17th century to accept the thinking mode of particle philosophy as a whole, it shocked them.
5. Interesting history of chemistry
It is a book by Ye Yonglie published by Hubei Children's Publishing House in 2005.
Chemistry is an interesting science. There are many interesting stories in the history of chemistry. Many people don't know that chemistry, which is closely related to our lives, originally meant "alchemy".
It is precisely because of the tireless pursuit of truth by countless chemists that the mystery of chemistry has been uncovered layer by layer. The unification of element symbols, the formulation of periodic law of elements, the proposal of conservation law of energy and the artificial preparation of elements are all inseparable from their efforts.
This book was written by Ye Yonglie, the main author of the best-selling book "100,000 Why". It plays an interesting role, taking you through ancient and modern times and telling you the interesting history of chemistry.
