Book Description	The Work And Workers Of The British Association For The Advancement Of Science, written by Cornelius Nicholson and originally published in 1884, is a detailed account of the history and contributions of the British Association for the Advancement of Science (BAAS). The BAAS was founded in 1831 with the goal of promoting scientific research and education in the United Kingdom, and over the years it played a significant role in advancing various fields of science, including astronomy, geology, chemistry, and biology.Nicholson's book provides a comprehensive overview of the BAAS's activities, from its early years to the time of publication. He describes the association's annual meetings, which brought together scientists from all over the world to present their research and engage in discussions and debates. He also discusses the BAAS's efforts to promote science education, including the establishment of science museums and the publication of scientific journals.In addition to providing a chronicle of the BAAS's activities, Nicholson's book also profiles many of the prominent scientists who were involved with the association over the years. He discusses their contributions to their respective fields of study and their involvement with the BAAS, providing insights into the personalities and motivations of some of the most influential scientists of the time.Overall, The Work And Workers Of The British Association For The Advancement Of Science is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science and the role that scientific societies have played in advancing scientific knowledge. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of science in the 19th century and the important contributions that the BAAS made to the field.A Historical Sketch Designed Chiefly For The Information Of The Affiliated Associates In British America, 1831-1884.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
