‎Copenhagen, A/S Regnecentralen, 1967. 8vo. In the original yellow printed wrappers. Former owner's stamp (K. Egelund Larsen) to front- and back-wrapper as well as title-page. 89 pp. A bit of wear to extremities, a bit of soiling to wrappers and a few spots to front wrapper. Internally nice and clean.‎

‎First edition of the Gier Algol 4 manual, a users' manual of the Algol 60 compiler system for the Gier computer (known as Gier Algol 4). The Algol 60 programming language was exceedingly influential and innovative and gave rise to many other programming languages, such as BCPL, B, Pascal, Simula and C. It is stated on the title-page that this is the ""Third edition of A Manual of Gier Algol"", which means, not that this is a later printing/edition of the paper, but that it is the third version of Gier Algol, being the 4th paper in the Algol series. ""Where Algol 58 was considered quite properly to be a draft, Algol 60 was appriciated, almost immediately, as a rounded work of art. It was to become a universal tool with which to view, study, and proffer solutions to almost every kind of problem in computation."" (Origins of Cyberspace 813).""The language was designed by a committee of American and European computer scientists to address some of the problems with Fortran programming language. It had significant influence on later programming language design. John Backus developed a method for describing the syntax of the Algol 58 programming language. This was revised and expanded by Peter Nauer for Algol 60 and the resulting approach is known as Backus Naur form."" (O'Regan, Gerard. A brief history of computing, 2008, 80 p.).The Gier Algol 4 was developed by the leading Danish computer scientists at that time: Tove Asmussen, Jørn Jensen, Søren Lauesen, Paul Lindgreen, Per Mondrup, Jørgen Zachariassen and Peter Nauer, the later being a pioneer in computer science" in 2005 he won the ACM A.M. Turing Award for his work on defining the ALGOL 60 programming language. The N in the BNF notation stands for Nauer. (Backus-Naur form).‎

Présenté pour la première fois en 1927, par le physicien allemand Werner Heisenberg, il énonce que toute amélioration de la précision de mesure de la position dune particule se traduit par une moindre précision de mesure de sa vitesse et vice-versa. - Le terme « incertitude » est le terme historique pour ce principe. Le nom de théorème d'indétermination est parfois préféré car le principe ne porte pas sur l'ignorance « subjective » de grandeurs par l'expérimentateur, mais bien sur une impossibilité fondamentale de les déterminer, et même sur le fait que le concept de grandeur précise n'a pas de sens physique. De plus, ce « principe » étant démontrable1, il s'agit en fait d'un théorème.

Il a mené de nombreuses recherches dans les domaines de l'électrochimie, de la thermodynamique, de la chimie du solide et de la photochimie. Ses découvertes incluent également l'équation qui porte son nom. - Vers 1906, Nernst établit le théorème précurseur de ce qui est aujourd'hui connu sous le nom de troisième principe de la thermodynamique. En 1911, avec Max Planck, il est le principal organisateur du Congrès Solvay à Bruxelles. Cette même année, il fonde lInstitut de chimie physique et délectrochimie de l'Institut Kaiser-Wilhelm, à Göttingen. En 1920, Nernst obtint le prix Nobel de chimie « en reconnaissance de son travail en thermochimie ». Il fut également lauréat de la médaille Franklin en 1928. Il devient, en 1932, membre étranger de la Royal Society. Il stoppa ses recherches universitaires en 1933. Il était alors professeur de physique à l'université de Berlin. - Le théorème de Nernst est un théorème de thermodynamique statistique. Il correspond au principe de Nernst en thermodynamique classique. La différence dans l'appellation provient du fait qu'en thermodynamique statistique le théorème de Nernst se déduit de l'équation de Boltzmann. Découvert en 1906, il s'exprime ainsi : « L'entropie d'un système quelconque peut toujours être prise égale à zéro à la température du zéro absolu ». Lorsque Nernst formule ce théorème, il indique qu'il ne s'applique qu'à des sytèmes cristallins. Il a toutefois été généralisé aux liquides, aux solides et aux gaz, trois types de systèmes macroscopiques. Le théorème ne s'applique pas aux systèmes quantiques.

‎First edition. In the early years of quantum mechanics several distinct formulations were developed Heisenberg's matrix mechanics, Schrödinger's wave mechanics, and Dirac's more general transformation theory. However these theories lacked strict mathematical rigor (only much later through Schwartz's theory of distributions did Dirac's theory achieve this). Quantum mechanics is one of the fields of science which was fortunate to attract the attention of a mathematician of von Neumann's character. Von Neumann showed, in a paper published 1927, how generalized infinite-dimensional Euclidean spaces (function spaces) and linear operators provide the proper mathematical framework for quantum mechanics. Von Neumann was strongly influenced by Hilbert's program of axiomatizing the fields of science. The axiomatic approach which von Neumann takes in his theory has ever since dominated modern physics and functional analysis, and it was von Neumann who coined the term 'Hilbert space'. Von Neumann's work in this field culminated in this monograph which in addition to the earlier paper includes his important considerations, inspired by Bohr and Heisenberg, regarding the problem of measurement, in particular von Neumann's disproof of hidden variables.‎

‎Scarce second Latin edition of Newton's ""Optics: or a Treatise of the Reflections, Refractions, Inflections, and Colours of Light. London 1704."", one of the great books in the history of science. ""Newton's Optics did for Light what his Principia had done for Gravitation, namely, placed it on a scientific basis."" (E.W. Brown). The translation was brought to light ""At the request of Newton, Dr. Samuel Clarke prepared a Latin edition of his Optics which appeared 1706, and he was generously presented by Sir Isaac with GBP 500, or GBP 100 for each of his five children, as a token of the appreciation and gratitude of the author. DeMoivre is said to have secured and taken charge of this translation, and to have spared neither time nor trouble in the task. Newton met him every evening at a coffe-house, and when they have finished their work he took De Moivre home with him to spend the evening in philosophical conversation.""(Brewster in his ""Newton"", 1855"").""In the accumulation of optical phenomena from his first paper (the short memoir in Philosophical Transaction, 1672) until the above book (the Optics,..) 33 years later, Newton had gathered explanations to many problems. The rainbow is fully explained and also ""Newton's rings"", produced by pressing the flat side of a plano-convex glass against a double convex lens of long focal lenght, producing rings of alternating brightness and darkness"" his explanation was not valid, as he did not know optical interference. He speculated on the double refraction of Icelandic spar...."" (Dibner in Heralds of Science No 148) - G.J. Gray No 180.‎
