Original Research. (Author's Copyright Ed.) the Governing Principles of the Elements: Explaining and Supplementing Dr. Dalton's Doctrine of Definite, (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781143029929)

"Original Research" by Herbert Masson delves into the foundational principles governing chemical elements, expanding upon Dr. Dalton's doctrine of definite, reciprocal, and multiple proportions. This historical work, originally published in 1878, explores substitution, hydrogen-replacement, and compound radicals through detailed explanations and supplementary material. Masson's contribution provides insights into the understanding of atomic weights and the relationships between chemical elements, reflecting the state of scientific knowledge during the late 19th century. A valuable resource for historians of science and those interested in the evolution of chemical theories, this book offers a glimpse into the research and thought processes that shaped modern chemistry.
