About This Item
Washington, D.C.: GPO Magazine. Very Good. Soft cover. pp233-257. Removed from ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BOARD OF REGENTS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION FOR THE YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 1900. VG. In plastic report covers. From the report: "It was for long imagined, following the doctrines of the Greeks and of their predecessors, that all matter consisted of four elements or principles, names which survive to this day in popular language. These were fire, air, water, and earth. It was not until the seventeenth century that Boyle in his Sceptical Chymist (1661) laid the foundations of the modern science [of chemistry]. .
