First printing of an influential paper in structural mechanics.""In 1840, Hodkinson presented his investigation on buckling of columns to the Royal Society (the paper offered). His purpose was to verify the theoretical formula of Euler...Cylindrical, solid and hollow specimens with rounded and flat ends were tested. Foer slender, solid struts, good accord was found with Euler's formula...It was also found that a strut with flat ends has the same strenght as a shorter strut og half its lenght which has rounded ends.""""Hodkinson baceme the professor of mechanical principles of engineering in University College, London, in 1847, and, during his tenure of the chair, he participated as a member of teh Royal Commission appointed to inquire into the application of iron to railway structures. In 1841 Hodgkinson was awarded a Royal Medal for his work on strenght of pillars and, in the same year he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.""(Timoshenko ""History of Strenght of Materials"", p. 128-29). - Darmsatedter, 1840 H.

First appearance of a landmark paper in organic chemistry in which Hofmann demonstrates the true nature of amines.""Wurtz had shown the existence of methyl and ethyl amines and had suggested that that they may be regarded as derivatives of ammonia. Hofmannproved this in adetailled study, in which he showed that all hydrogens of ammonia, and even of the ammonia radical, could be replaced by organic groups to give primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, and quaternary ammonium compounds. In the course of this work, he also cleared up the relation between ammonia and the ammonium radical which had long troubles chemists. The investigation was carried out in 1850, at a time when the type theory was foremost in theminds of organic chemists. It was therefore natural that Hofmann should formulate his nes compounds as representative of the ""ammonia type"". The formulas which he wrote, however scarcely differ from those used today. These clear examples helped Frankland in developing his theory of variable valence.""(Klickstein p. 364). Klickstein's selection is taken form the offered item pp. 392-397.

First appearance of the 2 papers which represents Homberg's main works. In these papers he shows for the first time how to determine equal weights of substances, that all acids differ only in water content, and that dry acids combines in equal proportions with alkali. In the first paper he also gives the Pygnometer Bottle its modern form.""Probably his most importent work was on the strenght of acids and the quantity required to neutralize a given quantity of alkali (two papers published in 1699 and 1700) - the papers offered - Homberg recognized that different alkalis neutralized the same acid in different proportion but believed that the relative strenghts of two acids could be determined by using the same alkali in each case. he treated the the question of neutralization (or dissolvability, as he called it) in quite quantitative fashion, showing that if an alkaline salt were treated with an acid, the gain of weight ofthe salt wasan indication of the amount of acid absorbed....Homberg nevertheless understood the fundamentals of the process and thereby laid the foundation for an understanding the nature of salts.""(DSB VI, p. 478).Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1700 C.
