Product Description
From the theory of the four elements to the alchemists' attempts to discover the philosopher's stone and transform lead into gold, to the early conception of the atom as a sort of microscopic solar system, these early investigations were all flawed and ultimately rejected. Yet they also lay the foundation for the made possible the theoretical, technological, and experimental breakthroughs that inform our modern and far more accurate, though by no means yet complete, understanding of the atom, its composition, and its mechanics.
