Joseph Priestley

    March 13, 1733 – February 6, 1804

    Joseph Priestley was a seminal 18th-century figure, contributing significantly as a theologian, Dissenting clergyman, natural philosopher, educator, and political theorist. His considerable scientific reputation was built upon his invention of soda water, his foundational writings on electricity, and his groundbreaking discovery of several gases, most notably what he termed "dephlogisticated air," now known as oxygen. His prolific output, exceeding 150 works, cemented his legacy across multiple disciplines.
