Abstract

Stephen G Brush 1983 New Jersey: Princetown University Press ix + 356 pp price £38.70 (£12.70 paperback) ISBN 0 691 08352 8 Hdbk I always enjoy reviewing books on the history of science written by Stephen Brush, and this one is no exception. It deals with the development of theories of the properties of matter, from the early ideas of Boyle and Newton about the structure of gases to the work of Landau and Onsager in this century.
