Spine loosening and a tear across middle of spine. Wear to spine ends. Leaves unpaginated. In all around 800 pp. 12 engraved plates. 6 large folded tables (Tables of Nomeclatures, Tables of Chemical Compounds, Table of Correspondence of Thermometers). Text in general clean, a few leaves with toning, plates intact but with some browning and foxing. 2 Tables with some dampstaining. Plate V as frontispiece.
Scarce first edition. Nicholson considered it an entirely new work. In the Advertisement is stated ""This work, though formed on the basis of the Dictionary in two volumes quarto, published several years since, by the same Author, is in effect AN ENTIRELY NEW WORK"" the articles being either considerably enlarged, or entirely rewritten, and in every instance being adopted to the present improved state of Chemical Science."" The Appendix contains Humphrey Davy's Bakerian Lecture on the decomposition of the fixed alkalies by electricity.Nicholson in collaboration with Anthony Carlisle constructed a voltaic pile and by this equipment they discovered the evolution of gases by the passage of the electric current through water (the decomposition of water). They were the first to use electricity to produce chemical actions.Not in Duveen - Not in Roy G. Neville (only the second ed.) - Partington IV, p.20.

Rare first German translation of Nicols' treatise on gemstones and minerals: “the first independent gemological book written or published by a British author. The text is distinctly in two parts, the first being a general treatise on gemstones, while the second... contains 89 numbered chapters, each describing a gemstone, stone, fossil... Nicols gives adulterations, nomenclature, varieties, sources, properties, and other useful information"" (Sinkankas). The treatise's content includes a definition of precious stones, their broad categorizations, the process of their formation, gemstones prevalent in ancient times, as well as explanations for attributes like transparency, color, and hardness. It delves into topics such as counterfeit gems, detailing artificially colored crystals, techniques for cutting, engraving, and polishing gems, and exploring their perceived supernatural properties.

First apperance of these 4 papers relating his discovery of INVISIBLE ""CHEMICAL"" RAYS, and which, 30 years later, by Henry Becquerel was ""re-discovered"" as radioactivity (1896).The results of these investigations lead to these statement: Some compounds exposed to light exhibit in the dark the same effect as that produced by the direct action of light. - Cardboards impregnated with both uranium nitrate and tartaric acid are ""active"" - The ""activity"" remaining on the exposed cardboard is revealed by its action on a photographic plate - The effect is not due to phosphorescence - The activity is attributed to invisible ""chemical"" rays.It is amazing how closely these experiments resembled those performed by Henri Becquerel 30 years later.""When the work of Abel Niepce de Saint-Victor was brought to light, many persons thought that henri had been aware of these publications prior to his research on uranium. Severel facts seems to support this belief. Henri's father, Alexandre Edmond, had reported several details from Abel Niepce in a book entitled ""Light: its causes and effects"", published 1869. When Henri Carrington Bolton (1843-1903) reviewed in 1869 the work of Abel Niepce, he mentioned a ""remarkable property of uranium nitrate to absorb the actinic rays of light, retaining them in an active condition for a long time"". In 1866 and 1869, J. Jamin, henri's first stepfather, lectured at the Ecole Polytechnique on the Niepce effects.""(Michel Genet ""The Discovery of Uranic Rays: A short Step for Henri Becquerel but a Giant Step for Science"" in Radiochimica Acta /0/71 1995).

First appearance of this milestone paper in the histroy of photography in which Niepce de Saint-Victor describes his invention of photography on glass or ""glass negatives"".""Early in 1847 Niepce de Saint-Victor experienced with the use of starch paste on his glass plates as a binding substratum for the iodide coating, but he soon found that albumen was preferable"" he also tried gelatine, but laid it aside because it came off in the aceto-silver nitrate bath. By a mixture of honey, syrup, or whey with the albumen, he oncreased, later the sensivity. He published his process on October 25, 1847, in the Comp. rend. (the paper offered), and soon had many followers. He also made many modifications (Annexe to the memoir)."" (Eder ""History of Photography"", Dover Publ., pp. 338 ff.).

First printing of this paper in which he described his invention of the so-called ""HELIOCROMS"", a pioneer paper in the development of colour-photography. Niepce de Saint Victor discovered there was a connection between the color that chloride salt produced in a flame with the color light produced on a chloride salt-treated plate. Heliochrome was the name of this process, which enabled Mr. Niepce de Saint Victor to produce copies of color engravings and landscapes. He did not produce daguerreotypes, and soon learned that the images he produced using the heliochrome process were not fixed and began turning gray with increased light exposure. Applying transparent coatings did not prove effective, and therefore Mr. Niepce de Saint Victor soon abandoned this unfeasible method. However, his experiments with heliochrome did lead to the successful daguerreotype color process developed by a New York Baptist minister named Levi L. Hill (1816-1865).

First apperance of the papers in which Nilson describes his discovery of a new element and its properties, and naming it Scandium. It was the second new element found after Mendeleev's prediction of its existence as ""Eka-Boron"".""Mendeléeff had predicted that another element, which he called eka-boron and which he said would have an atomic weight between 40 (calcium) and 48 (titanium), would some day be revealed. It was discovered in 1879 by Lars Fredrik Nilson.... Nilson extracted 63 grams of the rare earth erbia from gadolinite and euxenite, and converted it into the nitrate. Upon decomposing this salt by heat, as Marignac had done, he obtained some very pure ytterbia and, to his great surprise, an earth that was unknown to him.Upon thoroughly investigating this new earth, he found that it contained an element whose properties concided almost exactly with those Mendeléef had predicted for ekaboron. Nilson called it scandium in honour of his fatherland.""(Weeks ""Discovery of the Elements"" pp. 219-20).Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1879 C.
