Johann Lambert's Scientific Tool Kit.

Résumé

J.H. Lambert (1728-1777) developed a very detailed theory of science and experiment. Using Lambert's hygrometric studies, this article provides an introduction into Lambert's theory and its practice. Of special interest in Lambert's theory are a well-founded theory on the emergence and definition of concepts and his neat neat eye for heuristics that should ultimately lead up to a mathematization of physical phenomena. His use of visualizations in this context is especially remarkable.
