College Publishes Science Histories

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Four case histories in experimental science are being published by the University Press within the next month. Under the general editorship of President Conant, the cases have been designed for use in college courses for non-science majors.

The first two cases in the series have just been released--Robert Boyle's Experiments in Pneumatics and The Overthrow of the Phlogiston Theory. Case three, Early Development of the Concept of Temperature and Heat, edited by Professor Duane Roller of Wabash College, will be published in a fortnight.

The last case in this group, to be edited by Leonard K. Nash '39, assistant professor of Chemistry, will deal with the development of atomic and molecular theory. Other case subjects will be announced at a later date.
