Altogether Dalton contributed 116 writings to the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society. Dalton was the president of the Manchester Literary and Philosophical group from 1817 till the day he died in 1844. All these memoirs that Dalton wrote describe his findings or illustrating his ideas. ... When the Royal Society, a group of men who began meeting around 1645 to discuss the new philosophy and the common theme among the scientists who began the Society was acquiring knowledge by experimental investigation, argued with Dalton’s theories or hypotheses, he would publish his work in order to prove that he was right. ...
