This book tells the story of two of the most important figures in
the history of chemistry. Carl Wilhelm Scheele (1742-1786) was the
first to prepare oxygen and realise that air is a mixture of
nitrogen and oxygen; he also discovered many important organic and
inorganic substances. His fellow chemist and good friend, Torbern
Bergman (1735-1784), was one of the pioneers in analytical and
physical chemistry. In this carefully researched biography, the
author, Anders Lennartson, explains the chemistry of Scheele and
Bergman while putting their discoveries in the context of other
18th-century chemistry. Much of the information contained in this
work is available in English for the first time.
