In addition to his voluminous work, Fourcroy was also a voluminous writer. Though described as verbose his writings were accurate and understandable. Several women attended his lectures (including Marie Roland, destined to meet the guillotine), and Fourcroy wrote some works directed specifically to this audience. He also wrote a textbook. Elements of Natural History and Chemistry, the second edition of which presented both the phlogiston and oxygen theories. When Fourcroy presented the second edition to the Academy of Sciences, Lavoisier was on the committee appointed to examine it. Perhaps because Lavoisier was aware of how important the full endorsement of such an influential person in French chemical education would be, the publication of the book was held up until Fourcroy became convinced of the validity of Lavoisier s theory. It happened at about the same time as the conversion of Berthollet.
