From the rise of chemical technology in antiquity to the present
day, Igniting the Chemical Ring of Fire tracks the development of
professional chemistry communities in the countries of the Pacific
Rim. Critical in this process was the development of local
education and training in chemistry. The doctorate in chemistry is
generally regarded as coming into existence in early 19th century
Germany, with the model spreading globally as time passed. In early
years it was common for international chemistry scholars to train
at the ranking German or English universities before returning to
their home countries to seed a local version of the doctorate.
However, little has been formally written about this process
outside of Europe.Representing a first in the field for countries
of the Pacific Rim, this book documents the detailed history of
chemical communities in ten countries from a team of
internationally renowned historians. Providing insights into how
and when these countries initiated local chemistry PhD programs and
became independent chemical entities, Igniting the Chemical Ring of
Fire shows that there is no single path to development.
