First editions of these importent papers in statistical mechanics. The so-called Koopman-von Neumann mechanics is a description of classical mechanics in terms of Hilbert space, introduced by Bernard Koopman (the paper offered) and John von Neumann in 1931 and 1932. Ergodicity was introduced by Boltzmann, but the modern theory started from the paper by Koopman, and has been a cornerstone of statistical mechanics since. The ergodic method has found impressive applications in the fields of statistical mechanics, number theory, probability theory, harmonic analysis, and combinatorics.As Koopman and von Neumann demonstrated, a Hilbert space of complex, square integrable wavefunctions can be defined in which classical mechanics can be formulated as an operatorial theory similar to quantum mechanics.Birkhoff's proof (in the third paper offered) of ""the ergodic theorem was deemed as importent as his proof of Poincare's geometric theorem"" (Landmarks Writing in Western Mathematics 1640-1940, p. 877).

In 1907, Korn sent the first inter-city fax when he transmitted a photograph from Munich to Berlin. By 1906 his equipment was being put into regular service for transmission of newspaper photographs between Munich and Berlin via telegraph circuits. (Shiers & Shiers ""Early Televison"" No.303).

"KORTEWEG, D.J. & G. DE VRIES - THE KORTEWEG-DE VRIES EQUATION FOR THE SOLITARY WAVE

In: ""The London, Edinburgh and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science"", Vol. XXXIX, Fifth Series. VI,(1),552 pp. a. 7 plates. The paper: pp. 422-443. Internally clean and fine.
First appearance of the paper in which the authors set forth the equation which bears their name.The equation is named for Diederik Korteweg and Gustav de Vries who studied it, though the equation first appears in Boussinesqs work, 1877.""In mathematics and physics, a soliton is a self-reinforcing solitary wave (a wave packet or pulse) that maintains its shape while it travels at constant speed. Solitons are caused by a cancellation of nonlinear and dispersive effects in the medium.... Solitons arise as the solutions of a widespread class of weakly nonlinear dispersive partial differential equations describing physical systems. The soliton phenomenon was first described by John Scott Russell (1808-1882) who observed a solitary wave in the Union Canal in Scotland. He reproduced the phenomenon in a wave tank and named it the ""Wave of Translation"".Scott Russell's experimental work seemed at odds with Isaac Newton's and Daniel Bernoulli's theories of hydrodynamics. George Biddell Airy and George Gabriel Stokes had difficulty accepting Scott Russell's experimental observations because they could not be explained by the existing water wave theories. Their contemporaries spent some time attempting to extend the theory but it would take until the 1870s before Joseph Boussinesq and Lord Rayleigh published a theoretical treatment and solutions. In 1895 Diederik Korteweg and Gustav de Vries provided what is now known as the Korteweg-de Vries equation, including solitary wave and periodic cnoidal wave solutions."" (Wikipedia).

A similar explanation was offered by G.N. Lewis at about the same time, and he extended and theory to non polar bonds, or covalent links, as they came to be called. Langmuir further developed this aspect of the theory. The work of Kossel, Lewis and Langmuir...laid the foundations for all later theories of molecular structure.""

Rocks and minerals have always held a dual appeal for man - as objects of fascination and beauty and for their historic and scientific interest. The 400 photographs in this encyclopedia are therefore both a visual pleasure and also an essential means of identification. The text describes for the layman and the collector of many aspects of rocks and minerals - formation, location, history, cultural and technological uses. Marginal notes list the main physical and chemical characteristics of the minerals and line drawings illustrate their structures.

A new, scholarly, and lively appraisal of the twin paradigms of Luxury and Greed as they were debated, disseminated, enacted, and feigned in early modern Italy. This book unravels the complex interaction of the paradigms of luxury and greed which lie at the origins of modern consumption practices. In the Western world, the phenomenon of luxury and the ethical dilemmas it raised appeared, for the first time since antiquity, in early modern Italy. Here, luxury emerged as a core idea in the conceptualization of consumption. Simultaneously, greed ? which manifested in new and unrestrained consumption practices ? came under close ethical scrutiny. As the buying power of new classes gained pace, these paradigms evolved as they continued both to influence, and be influenced by, other emerging global cultures through the early modern period. After defining luxury and greed in their historical contexts, the volume?s chapters elucidate new consumptive goods, from chocolate to official robes of state; they examine how ideas about, and objects of, luxury and greed were disseminated through print, diplomacy, and gift-giving; and they reveal how even the most elite of consumers could fake their luxury objects. A group of international scholars from a range of disciplines thereby provide a new appraisal and vision of luxury and the ethics of greed in early modern Italy.

Fist printing of Kramer's doctoral thesis in which he calculated the relative intensities of the fine-structure components on the Basis of Bohr's Correspondence Principle and obtained results which generally agreed with Paschen's measurements.Bohr had concluded ""that polarizations and intensities should, in the limit of high quantum numbers, be given by the Fourier components of the quantized motion and that even at low quantum numbers the Fourier components in the initial and final states should give an indication of the intensities to be expected. In his doctoral thesis at Leiden in 1919 (published by the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences) - the paper offered - Kramers developed the mathematical formalism required to apply these ideas"" he also carried out detailed calculations for the case of a hydrogen atom in an external electric field. This led to a satisfactoery interpretation of the intensities of Stark components.""(H.B.G. Casimir in DSB VII, p. 491).

Such condescending impressions about the peoples living at the 'end of the world' have been adapted by Scandinavian historians who, until recently, have stressed the isolation and the otherness of the North, and ignored the many similarities to the 'culturally more developed' Europe. This collection of articles by Nordic scholars is truly interdisciplinary, covering philology, history, archaeology, theology, and other approaches. It is divided into two parts, the first of which addresses conversion from a broad perspective, while the second is devoted to the consolidation of Christianity and ecclesiastical structures. The book investigates from a fresh viewpoint important aspects of Nordic Christianity in the Middle Ages and discusses to what extent ideas and institutions were adapted to local circumstances. It includes a variety of topics, such as the remnants of paganism, medieval saints cults, law, and church, to religious warfare, and the use of beer in cult and memory. New.
