---- PREMIERE EDITION FRANCAISE ---- "The most notable chemical researches of W. HENRY were on hydrocarbon gases and on the combustion of ammonia with oxygen. In the second he determined the composition of ammonia gas by exploding it with a small amount of oxygen... HENRY entered Edinburg University in 1795... In 1798-1799 he had given his first lecture demonstrations, firmly grounded in the new doctrines and nomenclature. His textbook, Elements of experimental chemistry, was the most popular and successful chemistry text in English for more than thirty years...". (Partington III & DSB VI)**26420/2642/o2

First appearance of this highly importent paper in which Henry announced his discovery of the law, which later was termed ""Henry's Law"". The law states that when a gas is absorbed in a liquid the weight of the gas dissolved is directly proportional to the pressure of the gas over the liquid. This discovery contributed directly to the atomic theory of Dalton.(Parkinson: Breakthroughs: 1803 C) ""Dalton's own experiments on the solution of gases and the stimulus afforded by Henry's work have been seen as crucial in the development of the atomic theory.""(DSB VI p. 285).A paper by Humphrey Davy: ""An Accont of some Experiemnts and Observations on the constituent Parts of certain astringent Vegetables"" and on their Operating in Tanning.

ÉDITION ORIGINALE de DEUX TRÈS RARES PIÈCES D'ALCHIMIE IMPRIMÉES AU XVIe SIÈCLE. La première, "ARS CHEMICA", est consacrée à Hermès Trismégiste ; la seconde est l'oeuvre de SENIOR ZADITH (ou Mohammed ibn Umail al-Tamimi), un alchimiste arabe du Xe siècle qui a écrit plusieurs traités alchimiques dont le "DE CHEMIA" présent ici, plus connu sous le titre de "TABULA CHIMICA". (Ferguson, "Bibliotheca chimica", 49 [pour le premier ouvrage] - 563 [pour le second] - Pas dans Caillet ni Dorbon). De la BIBLIOTHÈQUE de Jacques-Antoine RABAUT, dit RABAUT-POMIER (1744-1820), pasteur et homme politique de la Révolution française. BON EXEMPLAIRE de ces deux très rares traités, conservés dans leur première reliure en vélin de l'époque. GOOD COPY. PICTURES AND MORE DETAILS ON REQUEST.

Nous avons ajouté à la fin de chaque expérience une explication raisonnée afin d'intéresser l'esprit et de mettre le praticien à même d'observer avec fruit les phénomènes qui se passent sous ses yeux et d'en apprécier les relations et les conséquences.

First appearance of an important pioneer-paper in the history of early photography, in which subject John Herschel was one of the main contributors. The paper deals with the dynamical interplay between photochemistry and photography and is of the greatest importence in applied photography. The later sections of the paper deals with the spectrum of the sun, Herschel's so-called thermographical representation of the spectrum of the sun (with description of the Actinograph, invented by him), rendering the heat radiation visible in the spectrum. This first importent spectrum is reproduced here on one of the plates (in stipple engraving). In this paper he introduces the photographical concepts 'positive' and 'negative' to express, respectively, pictures in which the lights and shades are the same as in nature, or as in the original model, and in which they are opposite.For this large paper John Herschel was awarded the Copley archives winners Prize for 1840.""The object which the author has in view in this memoir is to place on record a number of insulated facts and observations respecting the relations bothof white light, and of the differently refrangible rays, to various chemical agents whic have offered themselves to his notice in the course of his photographical experiments, suggested by the announcement of M.

First appearance of a pioneer-paper in the history of early photography in which Herschel announced some of his importent discoveries of the photographic printing processes, the process of photographic contact-printing in Prussian blue, brought to light just three years after Louis Daguerre and Henry Talbot had announced their independent inventions of photography in silver, using metal and paper substrates, respectively. and the photographic properties of red ferro sesquicyanuret of potassium.""This is the first recorded observation of Prussian blue being formed for a photographic purpose by the action of light on potassium ferricyanide, so it represents the moment of discovery of the first cyanotype process, although this name still lay in the future. The significance of this observation impressed Herschel sufficiently to mention it also in his general diary entry for 23 April 1842....""(Mike Ware in ""John Herschel's Cyanotype.
