First printing of this milestone paper in quantum physics in which Compton verifies Planck's quantum postulate and found that some of the X-rays had, in scattering, lenghtened their wavelenght. This phenomena was called the ""Compton Effect"" in his honour. For this discovery Compton received the Nobel prize in physics in 1927.""Compton was able to account for this (lenghtening of wavelenght) by presuming that a photon of light struch an electron, which recoiled, subtracting some energy from the photon and therefore increasing its wavelenght. This made it seem that a photon acted as a particle: thus after more than a century, the particulate natuer of light, as evolved by Newton, was revived... What itamounted to was that Compton brought to fruition the view that electromagnetic radiation had both a wave aspect and a particle aspect, and that the aspect which was most evident depended on how the radiation was tested. De Broglie was, at the same time, showing that this held true also for ordinary particles, such as electrons.""

Easton, PA., Mack printing Compagny, 1927. Royal8vo. Contemp. full cloth. Spine gilt and with gilt lettering. In: ""Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"", Vol. 13. IX,865 pp. (Entire volume offered). Condon's paper: pp. 466-470.
First printing of pioneering paper uniting chemistry with Quantum mechanics. Condon explains the chemical bond by means of the new wave mechanics. A wave function is formulated that involves the introduction of a pair of electrons (the hydrogen molecule) in an electron orbital that extends about two ore more atomic nuclei. Together with a paper by Heitler and London from the same year, this paper marks the beginning of a new era in chemistry as it explains the chemical bond in terms of the new physics.Henry M. Leicester ""Source Book in Chemistry 1900-1950"", pp. 151-156.The volume contains also Condon's paper. ""Coupling of electronic and nuclear Motions in Diatomic Molecules"", pp. 462-466.

First printing (in part) of the first Western translation of any part of Confusius' influential Chun Cieu, being the fourth volume of his works. ""The title Chun Cieu (Chunqiu) signifies the Spring and Autumn. He discourses like an historian of the expditions of diversr princes, of their Virtues and Vices, of the fatigues they underwent... The title is an emblematic title, because that states flourish when their Princes are endowed wit Virtue and Wisdom, which is represented by the Spring, and that on the contrary they fall like the leaves and are utterly destroyed when their Princes are dispirated, or are wicked, which is represented by the Autumn.""(James Legge).The section also comprises Bayer. Elementa Calmucia. (1) pp. and 1 engraved plate (numerous characters) and Bayer. De Venedis, et Eridano Fluvvio. Pp. 346-361.

A pupil of John Hunter, Cooper made great strides in surgical technique, most notably in the area of vessel ligation. As a teacher he stressed practical demonstrations over didacticism and gained the respect and admiration of his students. He was awarded the Copley Medal of the Royal Society, the highest honor the Society could bestow, for noteworthy contributions to medical knowledge. Cooper was not a prolific writer, but his publications were of the highest quality and were the result of personal knowledge and observation gained from long hours of practice, dissecting and experimentation... .
