First appearance of Huxley's famous obituary of Darwin. ""While Huxley was composing this and other expositions of technical education in the late 1880s, he was also writing an obituary notice on Darwin for the Proceedings of the Royal Society. Though he undertook this piece in 1883, he did not complete it until five years later. In letters to Foster and Hooker in early 1888, Huxley remarked that he was still rereading Origin of Species, trying to separate the ""substance"" of the theory from its ""accidents,"" with the aim of warding off a generation of ""hostile comments and would-be improvements."". Even though he had written at least a half-dozen abstracts of the work and was reading it, he said, ""for the nth time,"" he was ""getting along slowly"" and finding it ""one of the most difficult books to exhaust that ever was written."" At this juncture in his life, it seemed that Huxley had difficulty concluding what he had always concluded previously about Darwin's theory: that its points of central importance were the facts of variation, the Malthusian principle of overpopulation, and its consequence, universal struggle. As Huxley finally came around to saying once again the obituary article , it was immaterial how organisms differed from each other or why.""

(1780)
Paris, Théophile Barrois, 1780. 8vo. Fine cont. full mottled calf, richly gilt spine and gilt titlelabel in red leather. Edges gilt. LXVIII,333,(3) pp. and 1 folded engraved plate (showing his experimental apparatus). Light browning to margins of title-page, otherwise clean and with broad margins. A fine copy.
First French edition of perhaps the most important work in plant physiology. It is in this work that Ingen-Housz for the first time expounds the ideas and experiments that lead to his discovery of Photosynthesis in plant life, and as such it is of fundamental importance in the economy of living things. ""His Experiments upon vegetables was published in the autumn of 1779 and was at once recognized as a very important advance. In brief he showed, that oxygen evolution by plant is absolutely dependent on light and that it only occurs from those parts which are green...The proof that light and green tissues are both essential for oxygen production finally cleared up the apparent contradictions and variable results of earlier experiments. Priestly was ""much pleased"" with Ingen-Housz's experiments and pointed immediately to the salient facts that he had established."" (A.G. Morton: History of Botanical Science. p. 332.).

---- Deuxième édition française REVUE et AUGMENTEE ---- "Inghen-Housz'further studies on plant assimilation and respiration" ---- "Ingen-Housz showed that the green parts of plants, when exposed to light, fix the free carbon dioxide of the atmosphere, but that in darkness plants have no such power. Thus he proved that animal life is dependent ultimately on plant life, a discovery of fundamental importance in the economy of the world of living things". (Garrison N° 103 & 145.52 1st english ed.) ---- Norman N° 1142 : "The second volume contains the results of Ingen-Housz's further studies on plant assimilitation and respiration, which led him to believe that plants and animals are mutually supportive, the animals consuming oxygen and producting carbon dioxide, and the plants doing exactly the reverse. The volume also contains Ingen-Housz's rebuttals to the criticisms of Priestley and Senebier, who disputed his claim to the discovery of photosynthesis and plant respiration" ---- Dibner N° 29 & Horblit N° 55 1st english ed**2758/A2
