Brains of Britain
The historiography of Victorian life sciences has been badly distorted by the emphasis placed on Charles Darwin. It is now a full-time job keeping up with the Darwin industry. Of course, one welcomes warmly the detailed work on the notebooks and the publication of the first volume of the superbly-edited collected letters, not least because they provide valuable material for the social historian. ' Yet the very size and energy of the Darwin indust…

I take as my text today an epistle of John—John Phillips writing from Birmingham in 1839: ‘in quieter towns like ... York ... peace, good order, [and] leisure favour the expansion of a philosophical spirit’

Science and the Ante-Bellum American College
London Institutions and Lyell'S Career
In offering a contribution to a session concerned with ‘the background to Lyell's work’, I want to begin by launching a caveat against the notion of ‘background’. If, in the case of Lyell, ‘background’ features remained in obscurity then they can be dismissed; if, however, ‘background’ features were important then they become foreground. This point is not merely linguistic pedantry, because if we look at the scientific institutions of London in t…
Reflections on the History of Scottish Science
Sketches of the Royal Society and Royal Society Club. John Barrow
Science and Scottish University Reform
In the late eighteenth century, which was for Scotland in many ways an ‘Age of Improvement’, the University of Edinburgh enjoyed a golden age. Under the enlightened principalship of the Reverend William Robertson, the University offered wide, flexible, and mainly secular courses of study which were taught by conspicuously able professors. If we restrict ourselves to scientific chairs, a roll-call of their occupants is distinctly impressive: John …
Professors Robison and Playfair, and the Theophobia Gallica
For obvious reasons the political and social effects of the French Revolution on Britain remain perpetually fascinating to political and social historians. Yet with the exception of the radical minister and natural philosopher Joseph Priestley, its influence on British scientists and institutions devoted to science has not received the attention it deserves. The reason for this neglect is clear: as long as the science of the past is interpreted a…

Thomas Thomson
Thomas Thomson (177–1852) is primarily remembered as the author of the textbook A System of Chemistry which dominated the British field for about 30 years. In his chosen subject of chemistry his enthusiastic support of Daltonian chemical atomism and his zealous support of Prout's hypothesis have been recently recognized. Yet his activities were not as restricted as received opinion suggests. When Thomson assumed in 1818 the newly created Regius C…
