Pp. 327-342. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of this importent paper in which Lambert established a mathematical theory of order in all sorts of classifications. He treats the problem of order and its measures not only in relation to natural history or any domain of particulars but abstractly as a problem of epistemology in general. He attempts to create a new mathematics of ordered systems and to measure by a fraction the elements to which any collection of items departed from the ordered system and he carries his mathematical ideal even into taxonomy and systematics. </em> unknown

Light scattered brownspots. <br/><br/><em>First printing of an importent paper in which Gerhardt introduced the concept of "type" in organic chemistry in order to understand all substitution reactions."Gerhardt adopted Laurent's nucleus or unitary theory and combined it with the theory of types and radicals. In 1852 he discovered the anhydrides of organic acids and explained their structure by an extension of the water type of Williamson. He further proposed that all organic compounds could be related to one of four inorganic types: water hydrogen hydrogen chloride and ammonia. These types could be used to explain most organic reactions as double decompositions. Since Gerhard felt that the formula of organic compounds never ecpressed the actual structure of the molecule but only its reactions he was satisfied with this theory and carried it no farther. However it was a great advance in systematization and helped to bring order into the confused field of organic reactions."Leicester & Klickstein "A Source Book in Chemistry 1400-1900" p. 351."Gerhardt will occupy a permanent position in the history of Chemistry for his services to organic classification for his concept of homology for his preparation of acid anhydrides and for his reform of equivalents."DSB V p. 374.The volume contains further importent papers Marcelin Berthelot "Sur la Bichlorhydrate D'Essence de Térébenthine" pp. 223-230 by Arago Edmond Becquerel etc.etc. </em> hardcover

The introduction of the "Nucleus Theory" was the basis for the unitary theory formulated by Gerhardt."While studying the reactions of naphthalene and its compounds with the halogens and nitric acid Laurent was from the start characteristically concerned with the construction of an explanatory theory that would account for these phenomena. Like most creative scientists he generalized his solution to a specific problem through the imaginative use of analogy leading to the elaboration of the first comprehensive theory adequate for dealing with the whole domain of contemporaneous organic chemistry." DSB."A founder of modern organic chemistry Laurent was one of the most important chemists of the nineteenth century. He considered the behavior of matter to be a manifestation of its intimate internal structure which one cannot determine with certainty but which one has to investigate if one wants to understand. Laurent’s preoccupation was to construct a method that could guide the chemist forward along this path from facts to their causes. He was the first chemist to intimately associate crystallo-graphic data and chemical studies. Louis Pasteur and Charles Friedel later followed the way."DSB. </em> hardcover

Colour and black & white illustrations colour-illustrated self-printed wrappers stapled as issued very minor tear at foot of spine slight shelfwear VG-; Fourteen original photographs 12 sized 8 x 10.25 in. two sized 5 x 7 in. nine silver gelatin black & white several w/ commercial photographers stamps on verso 5 colour photographs NF set. First edition of this very scarce dealer’s promotional packet extolling the virtues of the Boysen Colorizer System complete with sales pitch and fantastic photographs showing the displays and products. The original Colorizer System was developed in the 1930s by two anonymous entrepreneurs in Salt Lake City UT. In 1949 they contracted with the Walter N. Boysen Paint Company in Oakland CA to produce the paints which were then introduced nationwide as a rapid paint-formulation system in a House & Garden Magazine article. The original system adopted by Boysen consisted of 1322 paint colours derived from 31 concentrated colourants as well as white and light gray base paints into which the concentrates were mixed. The brochure and photographs provide a fantastic guide for the marketing of the system with a paint sample album for 60-second color matching Color Center chip display as well as the national advertising campaign pushed by Boysen. The photographs include a photo of painter and housewife examining the sample book by Joern Gerdts Commercial Photographer Salt Lake City UT; Boysen Colorizer Paints advertising spot on the Ed Sullivan Show at CBS photo by Joseph Alpern Beverly Hills CA; an anniversary Boysen Paint Sale window display and more.

Adams calculated the second term of the series on which the secular acceleration depends as 3771/64m4 the value computed from Laplace’s work was 2187/128 m4. The effect of the correction was to reduce the figure for the moon’s secular acceleration by about half from 10.58 to 5.70.This paper caused a sharp scientific controversy marked by angry chauvinism on the part of several French astronomers. Their attacks stimulated a number of independent investigations of the subject all of which confirmed Adams’ result.
