Is anyone interesting in history of Chemical theory?
I am interesting in it and want to do some research on it. The aim is to help me gain more knownledge of it, and I think its very required to know it.
So I want to find someone to co-work with.

The forum's FTP has a lot of older books on it, scanned to PDF or DJVU files, which are likely to have the info you require.

I recommend "The fontana history of chemistry" by William Brock.
I dont think its in electronic form but I bought a paperback copy and felt it was well worth the price.
Edit, in the US this is called 'The norton history of chemistry'.

got a book entitled "crucible" that talks about indiviuals and the first discoveries that they made in chemistry - haven't read much
just scanned but seems very worthwhile - sets the context under which much of the very early research was done.
