A Dissenter?s Decline --$tNotes --$tIndex 330 $aJohn Servos explains the emergence of physical chemistry in America by presenting a series of lively portraits of such pivotal figures as Wilhelm Ostwald, A. A. Noyes, G. N. Lewis, and Linus Pauling, and of key institutions, including MIT, the University of California at Berkeley, and Caltech. In the early twentieth century, physical chemistry was a new hybrid science, the molecular biology of its time. The names of its progenitors were familiar to everyone who was scientifically literate; studies of aqueous solutions and of chemical thermodynamics had transformed scientific knowledge of chemical affinity. By exploring the relationship of the discipline to industry and to other sciences, and by tracing the research of its leading American practitioners, Servos shows how physical chemistry was eclipsed by its own offspring--specialties like quantum chemistry. 410 0$aACLS Humanities E-Book. 606 $aQui?mica fi?sica$xHistoria$2embucm 606 $aQui?mica fi?sica$xHistoria 608 $aHistoria. 610 $aAmerican Physical Society. 610 $aArrowsmith. 610 $aBaker Chemical Laboratory. 610 $aBergman, Torbern. 610 $aBunsen Gesellschaft. 610 $aCarnegie, Andrew. 610 $aChemical Foundation. 610 $aColumbia University. 610 $aComing Glass Company. 610 $aDu Pont Company. 610 $aEastman Kodak Company. 610 $aGeneral Education Board. 610 $aGuggenheim Foundation. 610 $aHarvard Medical School. 610 $aHoover, Herbert. 610 $aInternational Education Board. 610 $aJohnston, John. 610 $aJournal de chimie physique. 610 $aKopp, Hermann. 610 $aLaplace. 610 $aLeiden, University of. 610 $aLiverpool, University of. 610 $aMarsh, Othniel. 610 $aNational Academy of Sciences. 610 $aNernst, Walther. 610 $aNewburyport. 610 $aOstwald, Wolfgang. 610 $aPauli, Wolfgang. 610 $aPrinceton University. 610 $aResearch Corporation. 610 $aRodebush, Worth. 610 $aSchmidt, Karl. 610 $aStockholm Hogskola. 610 $aTammann, Gustav. 610 $aThomsen, Julius. 610 $aWaage, Peter. 610 $aWiedemann, Gustav. 610 $aWislicenus, Johannes. 610 $aYerkes Observatory. 610 $aadsorption. 610 $aallgemeine Chemie. 610 $achemical potential. 610 $aenergetics. 610 $afree energies. 610 $aoptical glass. 610 $aprinciple of maximum work. 610 $aresonance. 610 $asolubility-product principle. 610 $aspecialization. 610 $aultramicroscope. 610 $aunit operations. 615 07$aQui?mica fi?sica$xHistoria. 615 00$aQui?mica fi?sica$xHistoria. 676 $a541.30973 700 $aServos$b John W$01070445 712 02$aAmerican Council of Learned Societies. 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248182803316 996 $aPhysical Chemistry from Ostwald to Pauling$92560726 997 $aUNISA
