Reproduction of the original: The Sceptical Chymist by Robert Boyle

An important treatise by one of the leading mechanical philosophers of the seventeenth century.

These pioneering works of early science and theology are now available in a modernized and accessible new edition.

With Boyle on Atheism, J.J. MacIntosh has culled the Boyle manuscripts held at the Royal Society Library in London and transcribed the portions that relate to atheism, arranging them in the order Boyle appears to have intended.
