More about the book

Focusing on the intriguing phenomenon of weight increase in tin and lead during calcination, this collection showcases the essays of Jean Rey, a 17th-century French physician and chemist. Rey's research reveals that the weight gain results from air absorption rather than external substances, with a reversible process when heated in a vacuum. This English translation of his original 1630 work includes an editor's introduction and informative footnotes, making it a significant resource for those interested in the history of chemistry and scientific development.
