| Title | Volume 2, 1784-1787 - scientific and administrative letters sent to the Royal Society, its President or Officers |
| Date | 1784-1787 |
| Description | Letters sent to the Royal Society, its President or Officers. Subject matter is both domestic and scientific. Domestic concerns include such matters as instructions from authors on the publication of papers. The letters on scientific topics appear to be those which were considered of small significance, e.g. giving notice of minor inventions, or appealing to the Society for recognition, rather than those containing theories, research or observations. Arranged alphabetically by author. |
