The Invention of Air: A Story of Science, Faith, Revolution, and the Birth of America Book
From the author of The Ghost Map and Everything Bad Is Good for You, a new national bestseller: the "exhilarating"( Los Angeles Times) story of "a founding father long forgotten."(Newsweek)National bestselling author Steven Johnson tells the fascinating story of Joseph Priestley-scientist and theologian, protégé of Benjamin Franklin, friend of Thomas Jefferson-an eighteenth-century radical thinker who played pivotal roles in the invention of ecosystem science, the discovery of oxygen, the founding of the Unitarian Church, and the intellectual development of the United States.
