{"product_id":"chemistry-bernadette-bensaude-vincent-9781848162259","title":"Chemistry: The Impure Science","description":"This book uses history to introduce central issues in the philosophy of chemistry. Mobilizing the theme of impurity, it explores the tradition of chemistry's negative image. It then argues for the positive philosophical value of chemistry, reflecting its characteristic practical engagement with the material world. The book concludes with some ethical reflections concerning chemistry's orientations in the twenty-first century.The authors have previously both offered significant contributions to the history and philosophy of chemistry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent, Jonathan Simon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848162251\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848162259\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Imperial College Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2010 pg. 38","brand":"Bernadette Bensaude-Vincent","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43984403497215,"sku":"9781848162259","price":103.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fddc7c66-092b-4e06-b2d5-e1b7afe3cf76.jpg?v=1683272113","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chemistry-bernadette-bensaude-vincent-9781848162259","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
