John Dalton was an English chemist and physicist, best known for his pioneering work in modern atomic theory. His research into color perception proved so influential that 'Daltonism' became a term for color blindness. While his work was primarily scientific, a significant number of buildings, streets, and even scientific units reference his name, underscoring his lasting impact on the scientific world and beyond.
John Dalton's landmark work laid the foundation for the modern study of chemistry. In these volumes, he presents his theory of atomic structure and weight, as well as his laws of chemical combination. Despite the complexity of the subject matter, Dalton's writing is clear and accessible, making this an important text for anyone interested in the history of science.
