This volume arises from a conference held in November 2008 at the
Royal Society in London to mark the 275th anniversary of the
establishment of the Edward Worth Library in Dr. Steevens'
Hospital, Dublin. Many contributions reflect on the alchemical
interaction of the sciences - in particular natural philosophy and
medicine - and the printed book in the 16th and 17th centuries.
Other essays elucidate the historical, intellectual, and social
contexts in which this 'alchemy' occurred. The book produces a
fascinating insight into the social and intellectual world of
Edward Worth.
