John Dalton's Atomic Theory
For some new takes on how John Dalton came up with his atomic theory, see my paper that was just published in Notes & Records: The Royal Society Journal
of the History of Science.
The article, 'John Dalton and the London atomists: William and Bryan Higgins, William Austin, and new Daltonian doubts about
the origin of the atomic theory', can be accessed in the FirstCite section at http://rsnr.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/early/2014/08/20/rsnr.2014.0025.abstract.
Unfortunately, it is not available via Open Access, but I just wanted to alert those who might be interested in the subject matter.
Food for thought!
Thanks.
