Cajori. "Fourier demonstrated that problems in mathematical physics can be solved for any complex condition when one knows how to solve the simple periodic initial condition." Milestones of Science. The great achievements that Fourier presents us with in the present work can be seen as twofold treating first the formulation of the physical problem as boundary-value problems in linear partial differential equations which extended rational mechanics to fields outside those Newton had defined in his "Principia" and second "the powerful mathematical toold he invented for the solution of the equations which yielded a long series of descendants and raised problems in mathematical analysis that motivated much of the leading work in that field for the rest of the century and beyond."

Edition en partie originale et originale collective. Tome Ier seul des Oeuvres complÂtes de l'auteur ; cependant complet en tant que tel. Ouvrage fondamental de Fourier ''l'un des esprits les plus originaux qui se soient jamais produits dans la famille des utopistes et des rÂveurs'' celui-ci prÂŽsente iicses objectifs pour un gouvernement et une ÂŽconomie mondiale rÂŽgis par l'Attraction PassionnÂŽe. ÇSur les ruines des sciences incertaines s'ÂŽlÂve la thÂŽorie de l'Harmonie universelleÈ seule possibilitÂŽ pour transformer la sociÂŽtÂŽ ÇremÂŽdier au plus scandaleux des dÂŽsordres sociaux ˆ la pauvretŽÈ ; contre les morales et les idÂŽologies qui prÂchent pauvretÂŽ et mÂŽdiocritÂŽ il dÂŽfend l'opulence pour tous le luxe la gourmandise et la voluptÂŽ ; seule l'ÂŽmancipation de la femme libÂŽrÂŽe de la servitude du mariage et par consÂŽquent la libÂŽration de l'enfant des principes oiseux de l'obÂŽissance pourra permettre la rÂŽalisation de cette transformation. Les trois ennemis naturels des passions et de l'harmonie sont dit-il l'uniformitÂŽ la tiÂŽdeur et la mÂŽdiocritÂŽ : Çl'ÂŽquilibre des passions ne peut s'ÂŽtablir que par un choc rÂŽgulier des contrairesÈ. ''Selon Charles Fourier tout le travail de la civilisation se rÂŽduit ˆ rÂŽprimer comprimer supprimer nos instincts. En renonÂant ˆ ses instincts en rÂŽsistant ˆ l'impulsion du plaisir en luttant contre ses propres passions l'homme renonce au bonheur et fausse le but de la vie. Il faut donc pour arriver au bonheur laisser aux instincts des passions leur libre essor les utiliser au profit de la sociÂŽtÂŽ et absorber l'humanitÂŽ dans l'industrie attrayante. Pour parvenir ˆ ce but Fourier construit une civilisation nouvelle basÂŽe sur le libre essor des passions qui elles-mÂmes obÂŽissent comme les astres ˆ une attraction mystÂŽrieuse et en les soumettant aux lois de l'harmonie universelle il rÂŽtablit dans le monde le bonheur de tous les Âtres et remplit le voeu de la nature.'' in Louandre & Bourquelot.

Schaer G. Claeys and L.T.Sargent Utopia The Search for the Ideal Society in the Western World 2000 pp. 208 ff. Fourier was a radical thinker who created a plan for an ideal society. He respected the industry and intelligence of children acknowledged the validity of same sex relationships and androgyny and coined the term feminism. <br> Theorie des quatres mouvements Theory of four movements first edited in 1808 and reworked up to its final draft of 1841 is the first fundamental work in which Fourier declares his objectives for a world government and economy administered by Passionate Attraction "a theory of universal Harmony that springs from the ruins of uncertain sciences" the only possibility in his terms of transforming society "remediating everything from the most scandalous social disorders to poverty". Going against morals and ideologies that preach poverty and mediocrity Fourier defends opulence luxury gluttony and sensuality for all. He argued that a natural social order exists corresponding to Newton's ordering of the physical universe and that both evolved in eight ascending periods. In harmony the highest stage man's emotions would be freely expressed. That stage could be created he contended by dividing society into phalanges. <br> The phalange in Fourier's conception was to be a cooperative agricultural community bearing responsibility for the social welfare of the individual characterized by continual shifting of roles among its members. He felt that phalanges would distribute wealth more equitably than under capitalism and that they could be introduced into any political system including a monarchy. The individual member of a phalange was to be rewarded on the basis of the total productivity of the phalange. <br><br> A Leipzig [Lyon: Peizin] hardcover

188338901Breslau: Henry Hall. Good with no dust jacket. 1883. Leather. B&W Illustrations; Herein is the first mathematical study of heat diffusion originally presented as a paper to the Academie des Sciences in 1807. Based his reasoning on Newton's law of cooling namely that the flow of heat between two adjacent molecules is proportional to the extremely small difference of their temperatures. Here were three important contributions in this work one purely mathematical two essentially physical. In mathematics Fourier claimed that any function of a variable whether continuous or discontinuous can be expanded in a series of sines of multiples of the variable. Though this result is not correct without additional conditions Fourier's observation that some discontinuous functions are the sum of infinite series was a breakthrough. Fourier was famous for being the first to recognize and describe the greenhouse effect causing global warming in 1824-1827 This is the 1822 edition reprinting by Henry Hall in Berlin in 1883 itself a fairly scarce item. Covers detached. Textblock is solid and clean. 2 full page plates in the back dsiplaying 20 figures numerous equations and charts throughout. Large Paper. French Language. No markings. Presumably the M. In 'M. Fourier' stands for Mr or Monsieur. No record of this coming to auction. . Henry Hall hardcover
