Josiah Parsons Cooke
(October 12, 1827 – September 3, 1894) was an American
chemist
who worked at
Harvard University
and was instrumental in the measurement of
atomic weights
, inspiring America's first
Nobel laureate in chemistry
,
Theodore William Richards
, to pursue similar research. Cooke's 1854 paper on atomic weights has been said to foreshadow the
periodic law
developed later by
Mendeleev
and others. Historian
I. Bernard Cohen
described Cooke "as the first university chemist to do truly distinguished work in the field of
chemistry
" in the United States.
