Beschreibung

At head of title: Des Herrn Macquer, vorsitzenden Doctors von der medicinischen Facultat zu Paris, . . . 8vo. [xx], 260, [8] pp. 3 engraved folding plates, 1 folding table. [Complete]. Original full plain boards. Very good. Rare. [284] Second edition in German, translated by an anonymous person. The translation is taken from the Elemens de Chymie theorique, Paris, 1749. "The words 'Erster Theil' in the title suggest that this volume was probably intended to accompany the German translation of Macquer's Elemens de Chymie pratique, (Paris, 1751). The present edition appears to be an unchanged reprint of the first in Grman (Leipzig, 1752). Rare." â Â" Neville. / The Neville copy had signatures E and F bound in reverse order. This copy does not carry the same binding error, thus bound correctly. / Pierre-Joseph Macquer was a renowned and influential French chemist. "He was elected to the Paris Academy of Science in 1745 and began to concentrate on the practical applications of chemistry. In 1749 he found a method of dyeing wool and silk with Prussian blue, previously known only as an insoluble artists' pigment. He became more widely known through his two textbooks Elemens de chymie theorique (1749) and Elemens de chymie pratique (1751) which were reprinted several times and translated into English and other languages." â Â" Smeaton.
