The Historian and the Progress of Science
Arnold Thackray: It has become a commonplace that the present age is a new age, an Age of Science. A new trinity of scientific research, technological development, and rapid social change dominates our sensibilities. For the better part of 300 years, a tacit assumption of Western civilization has been that rapid change and social progress are equivalent. Thus, by a sort of shorthand, the advance of science has become equated with social progress.…

The Emergence of Dalton's Chemical Atomic Theory
The slow emergence of Dalton's chemical atomic theory has long been a considerable puzzle to historians of science The lengthy delay between Dalton's early work on mixed gases (September 1801) and particle weights (September 1803) and the eventual publication of the first part of his New System of Chemical Philosophy (June 1808) has called forth a variety of explanations. It is now more than half a century since A. N. Meldrum stressed “...the eff…

The Origin of Dalton's Chemical Atomic Theory
‘In praise of famous men’—the John Dalton bicentenary celebrations, 1966
SIR HUMPHRY DAVY once tartly observed that John Dalton ‘was a very disinterested man, and had no ambition beyond that of being thought a great philosopher’. Whether or not the comment was deserved, the attention paid to Dalton in 1966, the bicentenary year of his birth, amply confirms that the ambition was fulfilled. John Dalton has a variety of claims to scientific fame. As the lectures, meetings, discussions, articles and books of the past year…
