‎First appearance of a main paper in the history of chemistry. ""Graham's major contribution to inorganic chemistry is presented in a paper entitled ""Researcheson thee Arseniates, Phosphates....."" 1833 (the paper offered)...his elucidation of the differences between the three phosphoric acids and his discovery of their polybasicity provided Liebig with the clue to the modern concept of polybasic acids...""(A Source Book in Chemistry p. 333).Graham’s major contribution to inorganic chemistry is his paper !Researches on the Arseniates, Phosphates, and Modifications of Phosphoric Acid,"" in which he elucidated the differences between the three phosphoric acids. This research and the style of the paper are reminiscent of Joseph Black’s work on magnesia and the alkalies carried out in Glasgow eighty years earlier. Graham’s discovery of the polybasicity of these acids provided Justus Liebig with the clue to the modern concept of polybasic acids. Of this classic work the eminent German chemist and historian of chemistry Albert Ladenburg has said, ""so much has seldom been accomplished by a single investigation.""(DSB) ""In the Preface to...Graham's papers...Dr. Angus Smith has indicated in precise...language Graham's position in that chain of thinkers which includes Leucippus, Lucretius, Newton and Dalton (Thorpe)""Thomas Graham, the Scottish Chemist, first president of the Chemical Society of London, and one of the chief founders of physical chemistry. He formulated Graham's Law of diffusion relating the rate of diffusion of gases to their densities, discovered and named the process of dialysis used for separating colloids from crystalloids, studied the three forms of phosphoric and arsenics acids that led to the developpement of the concept of polybasic acids, a major contribution to inorganic chemistry (the paper offered).‎

‎First appearance of the papers in which he announced his famous Law of Effusion. Graham's Law shows the relationship between the molar or molecular mass of a gas and the rate at which it will effuse. Effusion is the process of gas molecules escaping through tiny holes in their container. He showed experimentally that the ratio of the rates of effusion of two gases is equal to the square root of the inverse ratio of their molecular masses or densities and the effusion rate of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular mass.Thomas Graham, the Scottish Chemist, first president of the Chemical Society of London, and one of the chief founders of physical chemistry.

‎First appearance of this importent paper in which Graham coins the word ""dialysis"" denoting the passage by diffusion of dissolved substances as a function of their concentration and molecular mass. In this way he further explained 'exomosis'.""Thomas Graham (1805-1869) studies diffusion in gases and solutions and discovers and names the phenomenon now known as the osmotic force. He finds that certain substances (i.e. glue) pass more slowly through membranes than others (i.e. common salt). He calls the former colloids and the latter crystalloids and introduces the notion of dialysis to describe these observations.

‎First appearance of this pioneer work in which Graham introduces the terminology and fundamental concepts of colloid chemistry.""Although some isolated investigations on colloids had been carried out before Graham, his publications in this field laid the foundations of colloid chemistry. In ""On the Diffusion of Liquids,"" Graham applied to liquids the exact method of inquiry he had applied to gases twenty years before, and he succeeded in placing the subject of liquid diffusion on about the same footing as that to which he had raised the subject of gaseous diffusion prior to the discovery of his numerical law. He showed that the rate of diffusion was approximately proportional to the concentration of the original solution, increased with rise in temperature, and was almost constant for groups of chemically similar salts at equal absolute (not molecular) concentrations and different with different groups. He believed that liquid diffusion was similar to gaseous diffusion and vaporization with dilute solutions, but with concentrated solutions he noted a departure from the ideal relationship, similar to that in gases approaching liquefaction under pressure.""(DSB). ‎

‎Scarce first edition by the ""father of colloid chemistry"". Althougt stated to be ""Second Edition"", no earlier edition is known, and the wording of the Preface (which is dated Febr. 1829) certainly suggest that this is the first edition.""In the present work he claims to have greatly improved on the ""Chemical Catechism"" of Samuel Parkes by arranging the subject in a more logical order abd introducing sections on plant and animal chemistry, which were omitted by Parkes. There is an interesting chapter on atomic theory, with reference to Higgins and Dalton. At the end is a useful vocabulary of chemical terms."" (Neville. Historical Chemical Library, I, p.544).‎

Ce remarquable article parut dans The Atlantic Monthly de février 1895. Il fut repris et cité rapidement dans tous les journaux spécialisés du monde. Il parait ici en français dans son intégralité. "L'étude de Mme Graham Bell est... une des plus belles et certainement la plus originale qui ait été écrite sur le sujet" (le traducteur). BONET (Juan Pablo). Réduction des lettres à leurs éléments primitifs et art d'enseigner à parler aux muets. Paris, chez les traducteurs, 1891 ; XXIVpp.-162pp.-1f. (manque le faux-titre). - PREMIERE ÉDITION FRANÇAISE de ce traité paru en Espagne en 1620. Traduction de E. Bassouls et A. Boyer, avec une préface de A. Dubranle. Bonet prodiguait ses soins au frère du connétable de Castille, sourd-muet depuis l'âge de deux ans. Son traité, l'un des premiers publiés sur le sujet, est de la première importance. La première partie traite des lettres de l'alphabet, de leur invention et des positions prises par la bouche pour les articuler. La seconde partie traite des causes du mutisme, explique l'alphabet manuel, la formation des sons et leur enchaînement. La troisième contient des explications sur le dialogue et sur la lecture et deux méthodes : l'une pour l'apprentissage des chiffres, l'autre pour apprendre en huit jours le grec ! ARNOLD (Thomas).

Edition originale rare (les éditions suivantes intégreront les campagnes successives, pour finir par former un ensemble de 5 volumes). L'attribution à Thomas Graham, baron Lynedoch (1748-1843) est traditionnelle ; dans ce cas, l'ouvrage est celui d'un acteur de la campagne, qui commença tardivement sa carrière militaire : en 1795 il était en garnison à Gibraltar, mais se fatigua très vite de la vie monotone de la garnison et il obtint la permission de rejoindre l'armée autrichienne sur le Rhin comme chargé de mission britannique. Dans ces fonctions il participa à la campagne de 1796 et plus tard il aida Wurmser dans la défense de Mantoue, quand elle fut investie par les Français du général Bonaparte.
