In -8°, pp. X, 484; mezza pergamena. Con 250 illustrazioni nel testo. Prima edizione del lavoro fondamentale del fisico e pensatore ceco: la prospettiva di Mach sulla fisica e la meccanica avrebbe influenzato profondamente la circostanza scientifica corrente e successiva, fino ad Albert Einstein che, a proposito del contenuto di questo volume, avrebbe scritto nel 1916, che era senza meno “the common property of physicists”; sempre in questo volume è formulato quello che Einstein avrebbe battezzato in suo onore “il principio di Mach”, sulle proprietà inerziali di un corpo e la loro interazione con la “materia lontana”. Il nome di Ernst Mach è legato fra l’altro all’unità di misura a lui intitolata, ovvero il numero di Mach, che esprime in unità la velocità supersonica. First edition of the main work of Mach: his perspective on physics and mechanics had a deep influence on the scientific circumstance, included Einstein, that about the content of this very volume wrote that it was “the common property of physicist”. Also in this volume the author develops the principle that Einstein called “of Mach”, about interaction of inertial properties with the “far matter”.

Entire volume offered. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of these papers constituting Dirac's own theory of quantum mechanics."Dirac wanted to establish an algebra for quantum variables or as he now termed them q-numbers. He wanted his q-number algebra to be a general and purely mathematical theory that could then be applied to problem of physics. Although it soon turned out that q-number algebra was equivalent to matrix mechanics in 1926 Dirac's theory was developed as an original alternative to both wave mechanics and matric mechanics. It was very much Dirac's own theory and he stuck to it without paying much attention to what went on inmatrix mechanics. In the summer of 1926 Dirac published a new and very general version of q-number algebra this timepresented as a purely mathematical theory. In this paper offered here he did not refer to physics at all. The work had little impact on the physics community but seems to have been appreciated by those who cultivated the mathematical aspects of quantum physics. Most of the results obtained by Dirac in his paper "The Elimination of the Nodes in Quantum Mechanics" had been found earlier by the German theorists using a method of matric mechanics but Dirac was able to improve on some of the results and deduce them from his own system of quantum mechanics."Helge Kragh. </em> hardcover

Internally clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of Van Vleck's two importent papers in which he clarifies and extends the Principle of Correspondence."Van Vleck made his greatest contribution to the old quantum theory in 1924 when he conceived his correspondence principle for absorption. He demonstrated that in the limit of high quantum numbers there would be a correspondence between absorption by classical multiply periodic systems and by their quantum analogues. His proof depended on interpreting net absorption in the quantum theory as the difference between gross absorption and stimulated emission of radiation an interpretation prompted by a remark of Breit’s. Van Vleck was particularly pleased that his classical theory reproduced the quantum result without the need for stimulated emission which he referred to as "negative absorption." DSB."Van Vleck’s theory of absorption by multiply periodic systems was consistent with the newly derived Kramers theory of dispersion and it convinced Bohr that his correspondence principle applied not only to emission but also to absorption. Further Van Vleck’s 1924 calculation made use of several of the ideas that Werner Heisenberg used in his matrix mechanics a year later. Van Vleck’s work however did not lead in the direction of matrix mechanics. His intent was to explain quantum phenomena especially "negative absorption" in classical terms rather than to devise an internally consistent quantum theory." DSB.In 1977 he shared the Nobel Prize with Philip Anderson and N. F. Mott.Van der Waerden "Sources of Quantum Mechanics" pp. 203 ff. </em> hardcover
