The Atmosphere Of Heaven

At the Pneumatic Institution in Bristol, founded in the closing years of the eighteenth century, dramatic experiments with gases precipitated not only a revolution in scientific medicine but also in the history of ideas. This book tells the story of maverick doctor Thomas Beddoes and the brilliant circle who surrounded him.
