Of all Dr Boerhaave'j Writings beside Ms Orations and Thesis. an Y account of the larger works of so justly celebrated a physician may be thought needless on the presumption, that scarce one of the faculty is unacquainted with them. But, as it has been found, that some among us have been pleased to censure our author, who either have not perused his genuine writings, or not with sufficient attention, it may injustice be expected, that we endeavour to point out the peculiar excellencies of his several works, and so distinguish the supposititious which disgrace his name, that they may no longer be obtruded for genuine. From The stile of bis Institutes and Aphorisms is so laconic, that nearly a like attention is necessary for the thorough understanding of those books, as is usually given to treatises of mixt mathematics, and a panegyric, instead of a vindication, will be deemed most meet after due consideration. f Of which he highly complains in the preface to his Chemistry. From the preceeding section, and account of his life, it partly appears how well he was qualified for teaching no less than practising physic; possest of the endowments and advantages above mentioned, he soon converted them to the service of the public. Whilst patients experienced the benefit of his surprizing sagacity, his incomparable collection of the most certain doctrines in medicine was communicated not only to his pupils, but to the world. For the first edition of his Institutions Medica appeared in 1707, two years before he was created a professor, about six years after he began to officiate as lecturer, p. 31.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of this little-known Dutch physician “will interest students and practitioners of history, chemistry, and philosophy of science” (Choice). In Inventing Chemistry, historian John C. Powers turns his attention to Herman Boerhaave (1668–1738), a Dutch medical and chemical professor whose work reached a wide, educated audience and became the template for chemical knowledge in the eighteenth century. The primary focus of this study is Boerhaave’s educational philosophy, and Powers traces its development from Boerhaave’s early days as a student in Leiden through his publication of the Elementa chemiae in 1732. Powers reveals how Boerhaave restructured and reinterpreted various practices from diverse chemical traditions (including craft chemistry, Paracelsian medical chemistry, and alchemy), shaping them into a chemical course that conformed to the pedagogical and philosophical norms of Leiden University’s medical faculty. In doing so, Boerhaave gave his chemistry a coherent organizational structure and philosophical foundation, and thus transformed an artisanal practice into an academic discipline. Inventing Chemistry is essential reading for historians of chemistry, medicine, and academic life.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: QU ALITIES, QUERIES, AND REPUTE Holland has bred its share of remarkable men and Gerard van Swieten was one of them. Raised in Leiden by fairly prosperous Catholic parents, educated at Louvain and Leiden, acknowledged as one of the most gifted pupils of the famed scientist Herman Boerhaave, and an eminent doctor in his native city for many years, he became chief physician at the Court of Vienna, director of the Imperial Library, head of both the Vienna Medical Faculty and the Censorship Commission, and trusted councillor of the Empress Maria Theresa. There is a short street in Leiden that presently honors his name and his figure is one of those surrounding the Empress on her imposing memorial in Vienna. What sort of man was this who travelled so far? What achievements, what qualities deserve such remembrances? Why a study of his life? Gerard van Swieten worked no miracles. He accomplished no "diplo matic revolution," commanded no victorious army, helped to change no political boundary, wrote no literary masterpiece, proposed no radically new or notable scientific theory. More of an organizer than an innovator, more of an administrator than an orginator, he was content to compile, to put together, to comment upon, to explain the discoveries of others and to manipulate the given situations presented to him. He seldom initiated. He followed through.
