Excerpt from Lectures on the History of the Development of Chemistry: Since the Time of Lavoisier
It is almost unnecessary to say that the book has no preten sions to completeness. I only felt justified in taking notice of those investigations and ideas which have exercised an influence upon the further development of chemistry, whereas I have at most merely referred to other investigations which, in my Opinion, will still exert such influence. An objective treatment of the subject appeared to demand that it should be handled in this way.
