Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Inorganic Evolution: As Studied by Spectrum Analysis This present volume contains an account of my most recent inquiries into the chemistry of the stars, and of some questions which have grown out of these inquiries. It has taken its present form because several friends, upon whose judgment I can rely, suggested that I should preface the account of the work, and the conclusions I have derived from it, by a statement, as clear and simple as I could make it, of the principles of Spectrum Analysis and of the earlier steps in the various investigations the convergence of which has led to the present standpoint. In my "Chemistry of the Sun," published in 1887, I dealt chiefly with the then state of the problem, so far as the Sun was concerned. In two later volumes, "The Meteoritic Hypothesis" and the "Sun's Place in Nature," I included the stars in the survey. The short story which I give in the earlier portion of the present book consists of a resume of the three volumes. so far as the question of dissociation is concerned; this is followed by evidence recently accumulated by other inquirers, all of which tends to strengthen my original thesis. In the latter part of the volume I endeavour to show how, in the studies concerning dissociation, we have really been collecting facts concerning the evolution of the chemical elements; and I point out especially that the first steps in this evolution may possibly be best studied by, and most clearly represented in, the long chain of facts now at our disposal touching the spectral changes observed in the hottest stars.

Book Description
Challenging traditional accounts of the origins of astrophysics, this book presents the first scholarly biography of nineteenth-century English amateur astronomer William Huggins (1824–1910). A pioneer in adapting the spectroscope to new astronomical purposes, William Huggins rose to scientific prominence in London and transformed professional astronomy to become a principal founder of the new science of astrophysics. The author re-examines his life and career, exploring unpublished notebooks, correspondence and research projects to expose the boldness of this scientific entrepreneur. While Sir William Huggins is the main focus of the book, the involvement of Lady Margaret Lindsay Huggins (1848–1915) in her husband's research is examined, where it may have been previously overlooked or obscured. Written in an engaging style, this book has broad appeal and will be valuable to scientists, students and anyone interested in the history of astronomy.
