Paper Tools from the 1780s to the 1960s: Nomenclature, Classification, and Representations (2018)

unapi

The four articles in this issue of Ambix were among seven papers presented in a symposium at the fall 2016 national meeting of the American Chemical Society on the occasion of the 2016 History of Chemistry Division’s Award to Ursula Klein for Outstanding Lifetime Achievement in the History of Chemistry. Klein’s symposium keynote paper appeared in 2017 in the Division’s Bulletin for the History of Chemistry. The four articles that follow in this issue cohere around major themes in Klein’s work, most notably the role in chemical investigation and documentation of paper tools such as classifications, formulas, models, diagrams, and other images.
