A review by cmbohn
Lavoisier in the Year One: The Birth of a New Science in an Age of Revolution by Madison Smartt Bell

2.0

Too much technical data about this study versus a study done by some other guy, which led to this discovery, which led to this study ....
Not enough biography or an assessment of where Laviosier fits in to the whole study of chemistry overall. There was some interesting stuff in there, and it made a good book to follow 'The Lost King of France.' But not quite what I was hoping for.
