Researches, Chemical and Philosophical: Chiefly Concerning Nitrous Oxide or Dephlogisticated Nitrous Air and Its Respiration is a book written by Humphry Davy in 1800. The book is a collection of Davy's research on nitrous oxide, a colorless and non-flammable gas that has anesthetic properties. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the properties of nitrous oxide, its preparation, and its effects on animals and humans. The second part of the book discusses the physiological effects of nitrous oxide on the human body, including its use as an anesthetic during surgery. The third part of the book explores the philosophical implications of Davy's research, including the relationship between the mind and the body, and the nature of consciousness. The book is considered a landmark in the history of chemistry and medicine, and Davy's research on nitrous oxide laid the foundation for the development of modern anesthesia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
