Dmitry Mendeleev - Cherished thoughts. A leather-bound gift book.

'Cherished thoughts" is a book written by the great Russian scientist Dmitry Mendeleev. It is a collection of his thoughts and ideas that are relevant to this day. The book was written by Mendeleev during his "palatine" period of life, which falls on the years 1903-1904. At that time, the scientist was engaged in analyzing a wide range of issues, including education, population, foreign trade, the relationship between education and national wealth, between industry and agriculture, as well as the state structure.
The main tasks that Mendeleev considered important for Russia were the development of education and industry. Many of his ideas outlined in the book have become particularly relevant in our time, when the country faces the same challenges.
The republication of the book "Cherished Thoughts" was the first event carried out by VNIIM in preparation for the celebration of the 175th anniversary of Mendeleev's birth. This underlines the importance of this publication for the history of science and culture. Many of the ideas of the great scientist have become particularly relevant at the present time.
