1891423911891. Laborty Reports issued by the Royal College of Physicians Edinburg 1891. - Edinburg 1891 pp.241-249 orig. Broschur; eigenhändig "With the compliments of Dr. Noel Paton Superintended of Laboratory". Rare Offprint! Diarmid Noel Paton 1859-1928 was one of the earliest research workers in the field of chemical physiology. So long ago as 1884 he began an investigation on the subject of urea formation and to the end of his life he was keenly interested in all metabolic problems. His interests were not confined to an interpretation of chemical physiology in any narrow sense. He was an investigator in many other physiological fields. He worked on the endocrine glands long before they became a popular subject of research; he directed investigations into dietary problems particularly of the poor and later into the relation of nutrition to the incidence of rickets and of growth. His last work was on postural reflexes and postural apnoea in the duck and the swan. unknown
1853024731UK 1853. First Edition . Paper. Very Good. 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall. An Original Written and Signed Base of a Letter by Anne Isabella Noel Byron 11th Baroness Wentworth and Baroness Byron. Letter undated c1840. The part letter reads ". this not from want of feeling that I will not now say more on the subject of your kind observations yours very truly" and signed A I Noel Byron. Anne Isabella Noel Byron 11th Baroness Wentworth and Baroness Byron 1792-1860 nicknamed Annabella and commonly known as Lady Byron was an English mathematician and the wife of poet George Gordon Byron more commonly known as Lord Byron. A highly educated and strictly religious woman she seemed an unlikely match for the amoral and agnostic poet and their marriage soon ended in acrimony. Lady Byron's reminiscences published after her death by Harriet Beecher Stowe revealed her fears about alleged incest between Lord Byron and his half-sister. The scandal about Lady Byron's suspicions accelerated Byron's intentions to leave England and return to the Mediterranean where he had lived in 1810. Their daughter Ada worked as a mathematician with Charles Babbage the pioneer of computer science. Lady Byron had felt that an education in mathematics and logic would counteract any possible inherited tendency towards Lord Byron's perceived insanity and romantic excess. Size is 110mm x 35mm.

The coin specimens appear as they would have in a Victorian cabinet specimen trayHenry Noel Humphreys 1810-1879 was also fascinated with illuminated Medieval manuscripts and began producing beautiful books with painted ornaments by using the beautiful chromolithography process of Owen Jones 1809-1874.
