Alfred Riche / Charles Gilbert Wheeler
'Medical Chemistry, Including the Outlines of Organic and Physiological Chemistry,' originally based in part upon Riche’s 'Manual De Chimie,' offers a comprehensive overview of medical chemistry as understood in the late 19th century. Authored by Charles Gilbert Wheeler and Alfred Riche, this volume explores the foundational principles linking chemistry with medical science. It examines organic chemistry, crucial for understanding the composition and reactions of organic compounds relevant to physiological processes, and details the then-current understanding of physiological chemistry. This historical text provides insights into the state of medical and chemical knowledge of the era, making it a valuable resource for students, historians of science and medicine, and anyone interested in the development of chemical and medical sciences. The book serves as a window into the past, showcasing the evolution of modern medical chemistry from its early scientific roots.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
