in-4, pp. (8), 227, (5). Legatura coeva cartonato rustico. Con una tavola inc. in rame ripieg. f.t., svariati diagrammi e figure silogr. n.t., di cui una a piena pag., con soggetto di macchine, figure geometriche e astronomiche. Dedica dell'a. al patrizio veneto Giovanni Giorgi. Una prima edizione parziale uscì in due parti nel 1655. Questa seconda edizione, notevolmente aumentata nel testo e nelle note, è divisa in cinque parti. L'opera si presenta sotto forma di dialogo immaginario tra Galileo, Guldin, e Mersenne, che trattano rispettivamente il confronto fra le forze delle macchine, la gravità terrestre, i vari modi per determinare la massa terrestre, il movimento della terra e la separazione tra terre e acque. L'A. inizia parlando della macchina di Archimede che avrebbe sollevato il mondo, investiga poi sulla gravità del globo terracqueo e sui metodi con i quali si può indagare sulla grandezza della Terra, al fine di ricavare dalla mole il peso e da qui la macchina che, in proporzione risponda alla gravità da muovere. Il gesuita Paolo Casati (Piacenza 1617- Parma 1707) fu insegnante di matematica e teologia a Roma, inviato in Svezia col compito di persuadere la regina Cristina ad abbracciare la religione cattolica ed infine rettore dell'Università di Parma.

demi-chagrin havane, dos à faux nerfs, tête dorée [H. Durand] 1797-1833, 1797-1833, , , demi-chagrin havane, dos à faux nerfs, tête dorée [H. Durand], Cinq extraits, dont quatre concernent la théorie de Joseph Fourier sur la chaleur. Le traité qui ouvre le recueil traite de la statique. Fourier exposa sa célèbre Théorie de la chaleur, définissant les lois mathématiques auxquelles obéit cet élément, pour la première fois devant l'Institut en 1807, puis en 1811. "Cette théorie formera désormais l'une des branches les plus importantes de la physique générale" (En français dans le texte). La Théorie du mouvement de la chaleur ici présentée dans des tirés à part en édition originale (2e et 3e pièces du recueil), forme la première mouture de la Théorie analytique qui fut publiée en 1822. C'est la "copie littérale de la pièce déposée aux archives de l'Institut le 28 septembre 1811... Elle contient tous les principes fondamentaux d'une nouvelle branche de la physique-mathématique : il était nécessaire d'exposer ces principes avant de publier les recherches entreprises depuis par l'auteur sur le même sujet". Elle est accompagnée du titre étonnant sur la chaleur du globe terrestre et "des espaces planétaires". Les pièces sont reliées dans l'ordre suivant : 1. "Mémoire sur la statique, contenant la démonstration du principe des vitesses virtuelles, et la théorie des momens". Extrait du Journal de l'école polytechnique, Ve cahier, 1797. Pages 20 à 60. Important mémoire qui serait tiré, selon Arago, de l'une des leçons de Fourier à l'École polytechnique. 2 et 3. "Théorie du mouvement de la chaleur dans les corps solides". Extrait des Mémoires de l'Académie des sciences, tome IV, année 1819 (impression en 1824). Pages 185 à 556. [Et la] "Suite du mémoire intitulé Théorie du mouvement de la chaleur dans les corps solides". Extrait des Mémoires de l'Académie royale des sciences, tome V, années 1821-1822 (impression en 1826). Pages 153 à 246. Premières éditions. Sans la planche dépliante qui accompagne le premier mémoire. 4. "Mémoire sur la température du globe terrestre et des espaces planétaires". Extrait des Mémoires de l'Académie des sciences, vol. 7, 1827. Pages 569 à 622. Reparution de ce mémoire qui avait été publié en 1824 dans les Annales de Chimie et de Physique (vol. 27, 1824). Fourier applique ici sa théorie de la chaleur à la température du globe terrestre et "des espaces planétaires", en distinguant trois causes de cette température : les rayons du Soleil, la température de l'espace , la chaleur interne datant de la formation de la Terre. 5. "Mémoire d'analyse sur le mouvement de la chaleur dans les fluides". Extrait des Mémoires de l'Académie des sciences, tome XII, 1833. Pages 507 à 530. Première édition ; mémoire lu le 4 septembre 1820 et jamais imprimé auparavant. Joseph Fourier (1768-1830) fut successivement titulaire de la chaire d'analyse mathématique à l'École polytechnique tout juste fondée, secrétaire perpétuel de l'Académie créée par Bonaparte au Caire, préfet de l'Isère, membre de l'Académie des sciences, puis de l'Académie française. Ses recherches scientifiques se sont avant tout portées sur les mathématiques. Étiquette ex-libris d'Henri Viellard et cachets de l'Institut catholique de Paris annulé. Étiquette en pied du dos.
