Description
Paracelsus, A Swiss-German scientist, proposed a new approach to natural philosophy and medicine--through chemistry. In France the Medical Faculty in Paris determined to block the introduction of chemistry to medicine in any field. The persistent influence of medical chemistry was significant both for the chemical revolution and as one of the driving forces behind the scientific revolution.
