He Was A Department Head At The Kaiser Wilhelm Institute For Physical Chemistry And Electrochemistry Now The Fritz Haber Institute From 1919 Until 1933 When The Racial Policies Of The Nazi Party Demanded The Dismissal Of Non-Aryans From Senior Posts. In 1934 He Became A Foreign Member Of The Royal Netherlands Academy Of Arts And Sciences. Emigrating To England Freundlich Accepted A Guest Professorship At University College London. Five Years Later He Accepted A Professorship At The University Of Minnesota. William Draper Harkins 1873 - 1951 Was A U.S. Chemist Notably For His Contributions To Nuclear Chemistry. Harkins Researched The Structure Of The Atomic Nucleus And Was The First To Propose The Principle Of Nuclear Fusion Four Years Before Jean Baptiste Perrin Published His Theory In 1919-20. Harkins Graduated With A Phd From Stanford University In 1907 And Spent His Career At The University Of Chicago From 1912. Harkins Correctly Predicted The Existence Of The Neutron In 1920 As A Proton-Electron Complex And Was The First To Use The Word "Neutron" In Connection With The Atomic Nucleus. The Neutron Was Detected Experimentally By James Chadwick In 1932. In The Beginning Of The 1930S Harkins Built A Cyclotron. From Experiments With This He Concluded That The Sun Might Be Powered By Nuclear Fusion. Among Other University Of Chicago Scientists Who Made Use Of This Cyclotron Was Enrico Fermi Who Performed Neutron Diffusion Experiments. Info From Wikipedia. A Detailed Memoir Is By Robert S.

Frontispiece of Liebig illustration of his laboratory on title page of Volume 1; frontispiece of Wohler and illustration of his laboratory on tile page of volume 2. Letters between two of the outstanding chemists of the nineteenth century. Liebig with Wohler established the theory of organic radicals and established the division of foods into fats carbohydrates and proteins. 1951 letters laid in to and from the Library of Congress which replies that this was the only edition that it was apparently never translated into English and that the Library of Congress did not own a copy but that a copy was reported to exist in the U.S. at the University of Washington at Seattle.

Fine No Wear Gilt Brilliant No Marks In The Original Glassine Dj Chipped And Torn Some Loose Pieces Retained. Walther Hermann Nernst 1864 -1941 Was A German Chemist Known For His Work In Thermodynamics Physical Chemistry Electrochemistry And Solid State Physics. His Formulation Of The Nernst Heat Theorem Helped Pave The Way For The Third Law Of Thermodynamics For Which He Won The 1920 Nobel Prize In Chemistry. He Is Also Known For Developing The Nernst Equation In 1887. He Wrote His Thesis At Graz Where Boltzmann Was Professor Though He Worked Under The Direction Of Ettinghausen. They Discovered The Nernst Effect: That A Magnetic Field Applied Perpendicular To A Metallic Conductor In A Temperature Gradient Gives Rise To An Electrical Potential Difference. Next He Moved To Würzburg Under Kohlrausch Where He Submitted And Defended His Thesis. Ostwald Recruited Him To The First Department Of Physical Chemistry At Leipzig. Nernst Moved There As An Assistant Working On The Thermodynamics Of Electrical Currents In Solutions. Promoted To Lecturer He Taught Briefly At Heidelberg And Then Moved To Göttingen. There He Wrote A Celebrated Textbook Theoretical Chemistry Which Was Translated Into English French And Russian. He Also Derived The Nernst Equation For The Electrical Potential Generated By Unequal Concentrations Of An Ion Separated By A Membrane That Is Permeable To The Ion. After Eighteen Productive Years At Göttingen Investigating Osmotic Pressure And Electrochemistry And Presenting A Theory Of How Nerves Conduct He Moved To Berlin And Was Awarded The Title Geheimrat. In 1905 He Proposed His "New Heat Theorem" Later Known As The Third Law Of Thermodynamics. He Showed That As The Temperature Approached Absolute Zero The Entropy Approaches Zero - While The Free Energy Remains Above Zero. This Is The Work For Which He Is Best Remembered As It Enabled Chemists To Determine Free Energies And Therefore Equilibrium Points Of Chemical Reactions From Heat Measurements. Nernst Became Friendly With Kaiser Wilhelm Whom He Persuaded To Found The Kaiser Wilhelm Gesellschaft For The Advancement Of The Sciences With An Initial Capital Of Eleven Million Marks. Nernst's Laboratory Discovered That At Low Temperatures Specific Heats Fell Markedly And Would Probably Disappear At Absolute Zero. This Fall Was Predicted For Liquids And Solids In A 1909 Paper Of Albert Einstein's On The Quantum Mechanics Of Specific Heats At Cryogenic Temperatures. Nernst And Planck Lobbied To Establish A Special Professorship In Berlin And Nernst Donated To Its Endowment. In 1913 They Traveled To Switzerland To Persuade Einstein To Accept It; A Dream Job: A Named Professorship At The Top University In Germany Without Teaching Duties Leaving Him Free For Research. In 1911 Nernst And Max Planck Organized The First Solvay Conference In Brussels. Nernst Was Active In Scientific Projects In Support Of Wwi; Both His Sons Were Killed At The Front. In 1918 After Studying Photochemistry He Proposed The Atomic Chain Reaction Theory. It Stated That When A Reaction In Which Free Atoms Are Formed That Can Decompose Target Molecules Into More Free Atoms Would Result In A Chain Reaction. His Theory Is Closely Related To The Natural Process Of Nuclear Fission. In 1920 He And His Family Briefly Fled Abroad Because He Was One Of The Scientists On The Allied List Of War Criminals. Later That Year He Received The Nobel Prize In Chemistry In Recognition Of His Work On Thermochemistry. He Was Elected Rector Of Berlin University For 1921-1922. He Set Up An Agency To Channel Government And Private Funds To Young Scientists And Declined Becoming Ambassador To The United States. Later He Was A Vocal Critic Of Adolf Hitler And Nazism And Two Of His Three Daughters Married Jewish Men. After Hitler Came To Power They Emigrated One To England And The Other To Brazil. <br/> <br/> Charles Scribner's Sons hardcover
