Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is one of the earliest attempts to define and describe the fundamental nature of air. It includes experiments dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries that established the composition of air, and makes a case that it is a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen, rather than a single element. The author makes early observations about the presence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the nature of ammonia, and the presence of ozone in the air. The book positions these discoveries in the broader context of scientific knowledge, particularly that of alchemy. It does this with original research and observations that illustrate the first emergence of the scientific method, and lays the foundation for the modern understanding of air and its components. It is a fascinating look at the early science of chemistry and the nature of air itself.
