Essays of Jean Rey, Doctor of Medicine: On an Enquiry into the Cause Wherefore Tin and Lead Increase in Weight on Calcination, 1630 (1895) is a book that compiles the essays of Jean Rey, a French physician and chemist who lived during the 17th century. The book focuses on Rey's investigation into the phenomenon of tin and lead increasing in weight when subjected to calcination, a process of heating a substance to high temperatures in the presence of oxygen. Rey's essays were originally published in French in 1630, and this book provides an English translation of his work. In his research, Rey observed that the weight gain of tin and lead during calcination was not due to the addition of any external substances, but rather a result of the absorption of air into the metal. He also noted that the weight gain was proportional to the amount of air absorbed, and that the process could be reversed by heating the metal in a vacuum.The book includes an introduction by the editor, who provides context for Rey's work and discusses its significance in the history of chemistry. There are also footnotes throughout the text that provide additional information and clarify certain points.Overall, Essays of Jean Rey, Doctor of Medicine: On an Enquiry into the Cause Wherefore Tin and Lead Increase in Weight on Calcination, 1630 (1895) is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of chemistry and the development of scientific thought during the 17th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
