Hardcover. Netherlands, Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1st, 2000, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 223 pages. In Elements, Principles and Particles, Antonio Clericuzio explores the relationships between chemistry and corpuscular philosophy in the age of the Scientific Revolution. Science historians have regarded chemistry and corpuscular philosophy as two distinct traditions. Clericuzio's view is that since the beginning of the 17th century atomism and chemistry were strictly connected. This is attested by Daniel Sennert and by many hitherto little-known French and English natural philosophers. They often combined a corpuscular theory of matter with Paracelsian chemical (and medical) doctrines. Boyle plays a central part in the present book: Clericuzio redefines Boyle's chemical views, by showing that Boyle did not subordinate chemistry to the principles of mechanical philosophy. When Boyle explained chemical phenomena, he had recourse to corpuscles endowed with chemical, not mechanical, properties. The combination of chemistry and corpuscular philosophy was adopted by a number of chemists active in the last decades of the 17th century, both in England and on the Continent. Using a large number of primary sources, the author challenges the standard view of the corpuscular theory of matter as identical with the mechanical philosophy. He points out that different versions of the corpuscular philosophy flourished in the 17th century. Most of them were not based on the mechanical theory, i.e. on the view that matter is inert and has only mechanical properties. Throughout the 17th century, active principles, as well as chemical properties, are attributed to corpuscles. Given its broad coverage, the book is a significant contribution to both history of science and history of philosophy.

Softcover. NY, Academic Press, 1st, 1985, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 271 pages. Reconstitutions of Transporters, Receptors, and Pathological States presents lectures about the reconstitutions of transporters, receptors, and pathological states. The book discusses the principles and strategies of the resolution and reconstitution of soluble pathways and membrane complexes; and lessons in the resolution and reconstitution after the natural structure of the membrane has been destroyed. The text then describes the analyses of reconstituted vesicles; the ATP synthetase of oxidative phosphorylation; and the pumps of plasma membranes. The ATP-driven ion pumps in organelles, microorganisms, and plants; the proton motive force generators, electron transport chains, and bacteriorhodopsin; and facilitated diffusion, symporters, and antiporters are also considered. The book further tackles plasma membrane receptors, as well as the reconstitutions of pathological states. Biochemists, molecular biologists, and cell biologists will find the book invaluable. Name on front fly leaf, otherwise clean.
