PREFACE.
The
Story
of
Alchemy
and
the
Beginnings
of
Chemistry
is
very
interesting
in
itself.
It
is
also
a
pregnant
example
of
the
contrast
between
the
scientific
and
the
emotional
methods
of
regarding
nature;
and
it
admirably
illustrates
the
differences
between
well-grounded,
suggestive,
hypotheses,
and
baseless
speculations.
I
have
tried
to
tell
the
story
so
that
it
may
be
intelligible
to
the
ordinary
reader.
