First appearance of all the 6 founding papers around the invention of the ""Harmonic Analyzer"" and with the mathematical theory for the differential analyzor, containing both the mathematical theories and the practical descriptions of the analyzer and further also having the paper by Lord Kelvin's brother (the first paper offered) in which the machinery is shown for the first time.""A ball and disk integrator was the vital invention needed to build the FIRST AUTOMATIC ANALOG COMPUTING MACHINES. Lord kelvin used this integrator -devised for a planimeter in the 1860s by his brother, James Thomson - on two new kinds of analog computers: a harmonic analyzer and a tide predictor. he later specified a more general machine - a differential analyzer.""(Eames in ""A Computer Perspective"").""The harmonic analyzer was used in conjunction with Thomson's tide predictor...The present paper (""Harmonic Analyzer"") contains the first full description of the harmoniz analyzer, which was ""designed rudimentally"" (p. 371) in Thomson's ""On an integrating machine having a new kinematic principle""(also offered here),,,,James Thomson's integrator - ""one of the first really workable integrating devices"" (Williams 1985, 207) - served as the basis for other analog machines designed by William Thomson for solving simultaneous linear equations and integrating differential equations. Thomson first described such a machine, composed of several Thomson integrators connedted together, in his paper on ""Mechanical integration of the linear differentialequations of the decond order...."" (also offred here)"" however the ""idea could then hardly be carried out, forone reason because an integrator, which is simply a variable- speed drive, could not then be buitl both accurate and capable of carrying sufficient load to move numerous mechanical parts"" (Bush 193, 450). The full realization of Thomson's idea did not come until fifty years later, when Vannevar Bush invented the torque amplifier for use in his differential analyzer.""(Hook and Norman).

Old French Herbal (Ms Princeton U.L. Garrett 131)
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2008 Hardcover. 152 p., 160 x 240 mm, Languages: English, Old French, Including an index. Fine copy. ISBN 9782503528816.
The earliest Old French herbal in verse, here edited for the first time, is a surprisingly comprehensive work (3188 octosyllables), based on an eleventh-century Latin treatise 'De viribus herbarum' attributed to a certain 'Macer'. It occupies a significant place in the development of herbals and is an interesting witness to writing in Western France in the thirteenth century and to the unusual syntax and concentrated style of its author. Some one hundred and twenty-five plants are described together with their medicinal uses, which cover a remarkable range of ailments. For ease of recognition the sections of text which do not seem to be based on the received text of 'Macer' are printed in italics. Quotations from the principal source and from parallels are given in the notes. This work will be of great value to all those interested in Old French, in medieval translation, the vernacular transmission of learning, and the history of medicine.

TRAITÈ COMPLET DE L'ART DU DENTISTE.
D'après l'état actuel des connaissances. Par F. Maury, dentiste de l'Ecole Royale Polytechnique. Nouvelle édition. de Just Rouvier et E. Le Bouivier, Paris, 1833. In-8 p. (mm. 211x124), 2 voll. in 1 (testo + atlante), mz. pelle coeva (manc. agli angoli), titolo oro al dorso, pp. VI (su 8, manca l'occhietto),578; (2), con 39 (su 40) tavv. f.t. Manca la tav. 38. Interessante manuale di odontoiatria, pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1828, contenente una delle prime illustrazioni di uno specchietto dentale. All'A., particolarmente interessato alla produzione di denti artificiali, viene spesso attribuita l''invenzione della sonda dentale. Cfr. Wellcome,IV,87: According to Quérard (Superchèries), the works published under Maury's name were really written by Auguste Tillet, médecin' (i.e. presumably Auguste Thillaye). If so, this surely means that he provided literary assistance rather than being responsible for the content - Walleriana,10679 (per l'ediz. del 1828).Fioriture intercalate nel testo, ma complessivamente buon esemplare.
