Mendeleev on the Periodic Law: Selected Writings, 1869 - 1905 Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In 1869, the Russian chemist Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev revealed the underlying order of matter by organizing the elements into a periodic table. This is the first English-language collection of Mendeleev's most important writings on the periodic law. Thirteen papers and essays, divided into three groups, reflect the period corresponding to the initial establishment of the periodic law, a period of priority disputes and experimental confirmations, and a final period of general acceptance for the law and increasing international recognition for Mendeleev. A single, easily accessible resource, this volume offers a history of the development of the periodic law, written by the law's own founder. 2 figures. 15 tables.
