A more full exposition was published the same year in ""Annales de Chimie et de Physique"", 3me Series - Tome XXIV.""In 1848....Pasteur studied the crystals of tartrates (one of the substances that exhibited the now-clockwise, now-counterclockwise effect) under the microscope and found that the xcrystasls were mirror images of the others. The two crystals resemmbled each other as a right-hand glove resembles a left-hand glove....This was a revolutionary discovery and it took some courage to announce it. A few years before, the well-known chemist Mitscherlich had studies the same tartrate crystals and declared them all to be identical. Pasteur was only a twenty-sic-year-old unknown. neverthelless he announced his findings and went before Biot to repeat the separation ofthe crystals before the eyes of the aged authority in the field. Biot was convinced and Pasteur received the Rumford medal of the Royal Society for his work....Pasteur had thus founded the science of polarimetry in which the measurements of the manner in which the plane of polarized light was twisted could be used to help to determine the structure of organic substance, to follow various chemical reactions, and so on.""(Asimov).

‎Première édition française du récit de l’expédition polaire conduite par l’explorateur américain Robert Edwin Peary (1856-1920), qui revendiqua la conquête du pôle Nord le 6 avril 1909, accompagné de Matthew Henson et de quatre Inuits. Traduit de l’édition américaine de 1910 (The North Pole), l’ouvrage relate les préparatifs, les conditions extrêmes de la traversée de la banquise arctique et la marche finale vers le 90° nord. Illustré de nombreuses cartes et photographies, il est précédé d’une introduction élogieuse de l’ancien président Theodore Roosevelt, soutien de Peary. Témoignage majeur de l’histoire des explorations polaires et pièce importante de la controverse sur la véritable découverte du pôle Nord. M8-B‎

‎First printing of these classic papers in chemistry in which the authors announced their discovery of Strychnine. This was the first alkali of vegetable origin to be discovered after morphine. This discovery (and their discovery of chlorophyll) brought them international fame. The first small paper contains the announcement of the discovery and the second long memoir contains the elaborate exposition of the discovery.""Strychnine was only the second alkaloid to be extracted, the first was morphine. Pelletier and Caventou wanted to name their new alkaloid vauqueline after Nicolas Vauquelin, one of their associates who had refined the technique of ether extraction for use in isolating alkaloids. However, the officers of the Académe des Sciences in Paris rejected the idea on the grounds that a respected scientist’s name should not be paired with a deadly poison. In addition to strychnine the pair isolated other important compounds from plants including caffeine, chlorophyll and the anti-malaria drug quinine. (Paul L. Burnham).Parkinson:""Breakthroughs"", 1818 C. - Garrison & Morton: 1846.The first issue also contains their importent memoir ""Examen chimique de la Cochenillee et de sa matière colorante"", pp. 250-287 which describes how they obtained crotonic acid from croton oil and analyzed carmine in the cochineal.‎

‎First printing of the paper in which Peltier describes his discovery of the ""Peltier-Effect"", the thermo-electric cooling and heating of an electrical junction dependent on the direction of the current.""Stimulated by the work of Nobili, Peltier constructed a sensitive galvanometer to measure the conductivities of antimony and bismuth for small currents. Peltier's use of small samples of these nonductile materials was fortunate because the anomalous behavior of these materials led him to construct a thermoelectric thermoscope and to measure the temperature distribution along a series of thermocouple circuits. He discovered that a cooling effect can take place at one junction and an excessive heating at the other. He then confirmed this discovery by using an air thermometer in place of the thermoscope. Peltier did not pursue the effect he had discovered, and its importence was not fully recognized until after the thermodynamic work of William Thomson twenty years later.""(DSB X, p. 500).Wheeler Gift no 2684. - Ronald's Library, p. 389. - Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1834 P.‎
