| Beschreibung: | Includes bibliographical references (pages 115-116) and index In a relatively brief but masterful recounting, Professor Ulf Lagerkvist traces the origins and seminal developments in the field of chemistry, highlighting the discoveries and personalities of the individuals who transformed the ancient myths of the Greeks, the musings of the alchemists, the mystique of phlogiston into the realities and the laws governing the properties and behavior of the elements; in short, how chemistry became a true science. A centerpiece of this historical journey was the triumph by Dmitri Mendeleev who conceived the Periodic Law of the Elements, the relation between the properties of the elements and their atomic weights but more precisely their atomic number. Aside from providing order to the elements known at the time, the law predicted the existence and atomic order of elements not then known but were discovered soon after. An underlying but explicit intent of Lagerkist's survey is to address what he believes was a gross injustice in denying Mendeleev the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1905 and again in 1906. Delving into the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences' detailed records concerning the nominations, Lagerkvist reveals the judging criteria and the often heated and prejudicial arguments favoring and demeaning the contributions of the competing contenders of those years. Lagerkvist, who was a member of the Swedish Academy of Sciences and has participated in judging nominations for the chemistry prize, concludes "It is in the nature of the Nobel Prize that there will always be a number candidates who obviously deserve to be rewarded but never get the accolade"--Mendeleev was one of those |

| spelling | Lagerkvist, Ulf Verfasser aut The periodic table and a missed Nobel Prize Ulf Lagerkvist ; edited by Erling Norrby Singapore World Scientific ©2012 1 Online-Ressource (xii, 122 pages) txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Includes bibliographical references (pages 115-116) and index In a relatively brief but masterful recounting, Professor Ulf Lagerkvist traces the origins and seminal developments in the field of chemistry, highlighting the discoveries and personalities of the individuals who transformed the ancient myths of the Greeks, the musings of the alchemists, the mystique of phlogiston into the realities and the laws governing the properties and behavior of the elements; in short, how chemistry became a true science. A centerpiece of this historical journey was the triumph by Dmitri Mendeleev who conceived the Periodic Law of the Elements, the relation between the properties of the elements and their atomic weights but more precisely their atomic number. Aside from providing order to the elements known at the time, the law predicted the existence and atomic order of elements not then known but were discovered soon after. An underlying but explicit intent of Lagerkist's survey is to address what he believes was a gross injustice in denying Mendeleev the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1905 and again in 1906. Delving into the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences' detailed records concerning the nominations, Lagerkvist reveals the judging criteria and the often heated and prejudicial arguments favoring and demeaning the contributions of the competing contenders of those years. Lagerkvist, who was a member of the Swedish Academy of Sciences and has participated in judging nominations for the chemistry prize, concludes "It is in the nature of the Nobel Prize that there will always be a number candidates who obviously deserve to be rewarded but never get the accolade"--Mendeleev was one of those Mendeleyev, Dmitry Ivanovich / 1834-1907 Mendeleyev, Dmitry Ivanovich / 1834-1907 fast Mendeleyev, Dmitry Ivanovich 1834-1907 Mendeleev, Dmitrij Ivanovič 1834-1907 (DE-588)118641069 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte Anfänge-1950 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1905-1906 gnd rswk-swf SCIENCE / Chemistry / Inorganic bisacsh Chemistry fast Nobel Prize winners fast Nobel Prizes fast Periodic law fast Chemie Geschichte Nobel Prize winners History Nobel Prizes History Chemistry History Periodic law Tables Periodensystem (DE-588)4125872-1 gnd rswk-swf Nobelpreis (DE-588)4130217-5 gnd rswk-swf Chemie (DE-588)4009816-3 gnd rswk-swf Wissenschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4079355-2 gnd rswk-swf Verweigerung (DE-588)4250678-5 gnd rswk-swf Mendeleev, Dmitrij Ivanovič 1834-1907 (DE-588)118641069 p Periodensystem (DE-588)4125872-1 s Nobelpreis (DE-588)4130217-5 s Verweigerung (DE-588)4250678-5 s Geschichte 1905-1906 z 1\p DE-604 Chemie (DE-588)4009816-3 s Wissenschaftsentwicklung (DE-588)4079355-2 s Geschichte Anfänge-1950 z 2\p DE-604 Norrby, Erling Sonstige oth Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 978-981-4295-95-6 Erscheint auch als Druckausgabe 981-4295-95-7 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=491515 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
