Explore the foundations of mineralogy with John Stevens Henslow’s ‘A Syllabus of a Course of Lectures on Mineralogy,’ a key text from the Cambridge Library Collection – Earth Science. First published in 1823, this seminal work by the Cambridge Professor, who also mentored Charles Darwin, provides a clear reference to mineral composition based on the emerging principles of atomic theory. Henslow’s syllabus was designed to streamline classroom learning, focusing on identifying essential and accidental elementary molecules and their proportions. This volume is an invaluable resource for historians of science, researchers tracing the evolution of atomic theory, and scholars interested in 19th-century university education and its intellectual landscape.
