Omschrijving

Sketches of the Royal Society and Royal Society Club is a book written by John Barrow and first published in 1849. The book is a collection of sketches of the members of the Royal Society, a learned society for the sciences, founded in London in 1660. The sketches provide insight into the lives and personalities of some of the most prominent members of the society, including Isaac Newton, Robert Boyle, and Benjamin Franklin. In addition to the sketches, the book also includes a history of the Royal Society and its contributions to science. Barrow, who was a mathematician and Fellow of the Royal Society, was well-placed to write this book, having been involved with the society for many years. The Royal Society Club, which is also featured in the book, was a social club for members of the Royal Society. Barrow provides anecdotes and descriptions of the club's activities, which included dinners, debates, and other social events. Overall, Sketches of the Royal Society and Royal Society Club is an important historical document that provides a fascinating glimpse into the lives of some of the greatest scientific minds of the past.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
