He also published An Examination of the Newtonian Argument for the Emptiness of Space, and of the Resistance of Subtile Fluid (1740). 2) Charles Dalston Nevinson, MD (1773-1846). ESTC T135774 (with signature 'b' under the gap after 'PAUL'); Wellcome II, p. 451. This is an unauthorised edition, edited by Paul Dawson, and without 'All Carefully Examined and Corrected by Mr Desaguliers' on the title-page. When Desagulier became aware of the book he approached the booksellers but found that two-thirds of the imprint had already been sold. They promised to insert into all remaining copies a preface that Desagulier would write, together with a substantial errata. This copy appears to have all the errata corrected in the text. Primarily of interest as a textbook on Newtonian physics, the first issue appeared with the title A System of Experimental Philosophy .

' Cold is a milestone in the history of chemistry since it applies a quantitative tool, namely the thermometer, to study of the interaction of elemental substances and mixtures. This … gives Boyle just claim to a place in the early history of ideas concerning the kinetics of chemical reactions (i.e. modern thermodynamics) ... The treatise on Cold contains the first description of a graduated thermometer, termed by Boyle a thermoscope ... He was aware that extreme cold prevented the putrefaction of animal tissues, and realized that cold could be utilized for the preservaton of meat ' (Fulton).
