Alchemy and Chemistry After 1650 is a book written by Lynn Thorndike that explores the evolution of alchemy and its transformation into modern chemistry. The book covers the period from the 17th century onwards, when alchemy began to lose its mystical associations and became more scientific in nature. It examines the contributions of prominent figures in the field of chemistry, such as Boyle, Lavoisier, and Priestley, and their efforts to establish chemistry as a legitimate scientific discipline. The book also delves into the continued interest in alchemy among certain individuals and groups, despite the increasing dominance of chemistry. Overall, Alchemy and Chemistry After 1650 offers a comprehensive look at the history of alchemy and its relationship with modern chemistry.THIS 58 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The History of Magic and Experimental Science Part 13, by Lynn Thorndike.
