First edition of the most significant Danish physics work of the 18th century, being the first systematic exposition of Newtonian physics and mathematics in Denmark. Here he provides a systematic presentation of Newtonian physics and calculus. ""Kraft’s best-known work is a textbook on theoretical and technical mechanics (1763-1764). The book, written in an easy and fluent style, contains a series of lectures baied on Newtonian principle. Each lecture is provided with a supplement giving a more advanced mathematical exposition of the subject matter. In Denmark this work gave theoretical physics a firm basis as an academic subject, while its large section on machines stimulated the expansion of industry. The book was favorably received abroad and was trans. lated into Latin and German."" (DSB) Jens Kraft (1720–1765) was a Dano-Norwegian mathematician and philosopher. He was born in Frederikshald in Norway.While still a student in Copenhagen, he was influenced by Christian Wolff, having attended one of Wolff’s lectures during a visit to Halle. Later he was appointed professor of philosophy at the Sorø Academy, where he responded to Baumgarten’s Metaphysica with his own work, Metaphysik. Both philosophers structured their works into four divisions: Cosmologie, Ontologie, Psykologie, and Naturlig Theologie. Kraft distinguished between time and eternity asserting that “the finite can never attain eternity, but it can attain infinite time (Aevum), a time with a beginning but without an end.” In contrast, the infinite possesses true permanence.

First edition of Kramer's doctorial thesis. Karmer was Niels Bohr's first assistent when Bohr's Institute opened in 1920, later he returned to Utrecht and became sucessor to Ehrenfest. - The frequency of spectral lines did not coincide with a kinetic frequency of electrons, but was only partly explained by Bohr's correspondence principle. Kramer developed here in this work the mathematical formalism required to unite these ideas, leading to an interpretation of the intensities of Stark Components.

Offprint issue of Kramer's doctorial thesis. Kramer was Niels Bohr's first assistent when Bohr's Institute opened in 1920, later he returned to Utrecht and became sucessor to Ehrenfest. - The frequency of spectral lines did not coincide with a kinetic frequency of electrons, but was only partly explained by Bohr's correspondence principle. Kramers developed here in this work the mathematical formalism required to unite these ideas, leading to an interpretation of the intensities of Stark Components.""In his 1919 dissertation, Kramers calculated in detail the intensities and polarizations of the hydrogen spectral lines, including Zeeman and Stark effects. His results were in good, if not perfect, agreement with experimental data"". (Kragh, Quantum Generations, P. 157).

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).

Den sjældne originaludgave af den første danske oversættelse af Kratzensteins ""Systema physicae experimentalis..."". Han blev på foranledning af Leonhard Euler ansat som ""Mechanicus"" ved Akademiet i St. Petersburg i 1748 og blev 5 år senere udnævnt til professor i København. Kratzenstein er mest kendt for sine experimenter over elektricitetens virkninger på forskellige områder, bl. indenfor medicinen (således var han den første, som ved hjælp af gnisten fra en Leydner-flaske, kurerede en paralyseret finger, og således grundlæggeren af elektro-terapien), og han var den første fysiker overhovedet, som søgte at udfinde forholdet mellem den elektriske kraft of dens virkningsafstand, på samme måde som gravitet er en simpel funktion af afstand. - Bibl. Danica II:108. - Poggendorff I:1314 (the German edition from 1758).
