First appearance of this milestone paper in organic chemistry in which he demonstrated the mutual linking together of carbon atoms, developed the idea of affinity units, later called ""valence bonds"", and thus making it possible to explain the formation of organic compounds containing large numbers of carbon atoms. This was ""the final step in the development of modern structural formulas for organic compounds..."" (Leicester & Klickstein, p. 417)""It was not till 1858 that a satisfactory theory of molecular constitution was advanced, simultaneously and independently, by thwo young chemists, Friedrich August Kekulé and Archibald Scott Couper. The theory of molecular constitution put foreward....by Couper and Kekulé rested on two main postulates, the quadriivalency of carbon,....and the capacity of the carbon atom for mutual linking or combining together to form a carbon ""chain"". By this hypothesis of the mutual linking together of carbon atoms - which waslater confirmed by experiment - it was possible to explain the formation of organic compounds containing a large number of carbon atoms. On the foundation of their postulates two postulates, moreover, (they) showed how the molecular constitution or mutual linking together of the atoms of a compound could be represented diagrammatically and the relstions between different compounds made readily intelligible. In his classic paper ""On a New Chemical Theory"" (the paper offered here in its first appearance) advanced beyond Kekulé by representing the constitutions of the compounds by means of GRAPHIC FORMULA in which, as at the present day, the valencies pf the atoms are represented by lines....his formulae are similar to those at present in use...""(Findlay pp. 34 ff)""The theory of Kekulé and Couper gave the chemists the means of solving the problems of chemical constitution"" and by means of the graphic or constitutional formulae it became possible to represent the molecular constitution of known compounds and to foresee the possible existence of isomeric compounds.""(Findlay).Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1858 C. - Ostwald's Klassiker No. 183. - Leicester & Klickstein ""A Source Book in Chemistry"", pp. 417-425. - Exhibition of First Editions of Epochal Achievements in the History of Science, Berkeley 1934.

First edition of the important paper in which the first three-dimensional model of a protein was obtained, and which thus laid the foundation for all structural biology. Kendrew was furthermore one of the first to use a computer in analyzing the data produced by x-ray diffraction. For his essential discovery Kendrew was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1962. The discovery is widely regarded as being one the most important in the second half of the 20th century within biology and chemistry. ""The first dramatic but hard-won success of the approach [in understanding molecules], the determination of the three-dimensional structure of a protein called myoglobin, was announced in 1958 [in the present paper]. The findings laid the foundation for the age of structure in biology: [...] the paper was the outcome of a truly Herculean task.

La Généralisation du système automatique « Rotary » (1927), Le Problème du chauffage dans le bâtiment. (source : Illustration). Il s'intéressa notamment à ce que l'on appelle communément aujourd'hui les biocarburants, et publia plusieurs articles dans revue l'Illustration sur le pétrole et les carburants de remplacement.

First edition of the paper which marks the beginning of spectrum analysis. In this work Kirchhoff and Bunsen announced their discovery of the two alkali metals, cesium and rubidium, with the aid of the spectroscope they had invented the year before. These discoveries inaugurated a new era in the means used to find new elements.
