was Lothar Meyer? - Where I can find information on Julius
Lothar Meyer the German chemist? Lothar Meyer was a codiscoverer
of the periodic table. Working independently from Mendeleev (who
usually gets all the credit for the first 'modern' periodic
table), Meyer plotted element properties versus atomic weights
to show the regular variations that marked the boundaries of his
table. Carmen Giunta maintains the Classical Chemistry page,
which is one of the best chemical history resources on the Web.
You can find Meyer's original periodic table there, in HTML
format. You can learn a bit more about Meyer from these books: -
