Description:
Paris: Baudoin, 1803. Ameilhon, Hubert-Pascal (1730-1811). Éclaircissemens sur l'inscription grecque du monument trouvé à Rosette. [4], 121pp. Large folding plate. Paris: Baudouin, An X (1803). 262 x 203 mm. Original boards, rebacked preserving remains of original spine, corners worn. Wormholes in lower leaf corners expertly repaired, but very good. First Edition of the first published translation of the Rosetta Stone's Greek inscription. Ameilhon, a librarian at the historical library of Paris, completed the translation begun by Gabriel de la Porte du Theil, working from lithographs of the inscription and a sulfur cast of the Rosetta Stone. "The labour of translating the Greek and of writing a commentary upon the words and passages which presented difficulties occupied M. Ameilhon the greater part of the year 1802, and it was not until the month Floréal (April 20th-May 20th), 1803 that he was able to publish his Éclaircissements . . . This work contained a good facsimile of the Greek text of…

Description:
2014. Neave, Richard. Ecorché sculpture in bronze of a flayed male figure holding a Neanderthal skull, signed in the bronze "R. N. 2014." N.p., 2014. 420 mm. (16.5") high (excluding wooden plinth). No. 3 of 12 examples. With artist's signed authentication. Ecorché sculpture in the Renaissance tradition, reminiscent of the famous "musclemen" from Vesalius's De humani corporis fabrica but showing much greater anatomical detail than was possible in the 16th century. Neave, a British expert in forensic facial reconstruction, has earned fame for his reconstructions of historical figures including Jesus, King Philip of Macedon and the Yde Girl, a bog body dating from ca. 54 B.C. He also collaborated with Pascale Pollier on the Vesalius monument unveiled at Zakynthos on September 4, 2014; the monument is a life-size ecorché similar to our smaller version, but holding a different skull. .

(2) (with Walter Gerlach [1889-1979]). Der experimentelle Nachweis des magnetischen Moments des Silberatoms. In ibid. 8 (1921): 110-111. Together 2 whole volumes.

Vol. 7 in half morocco, cloth boards, a little rubbed; Vol. 8 in half cloth, marbled boards. Library stamps on titles. First Editions. Stern, whom Emilio Segrè considered "one of the major physicists of the century" (p. 138), developed Dunoyer's molecular beam method and used it to devise what is now known as the Stern-Gerlach experiment, which demonstrates the reality of space-quantization of atoms. This experiment had an enormous impact on modern physics, and has become a paradigm of quantum measurement. Spatial quantization had been introduced as a…

1916. Einstein, Albert (1879-1955). Ein einfaches Experiment zum Nachweis der Ampèreschen Molekularströme. Offprint from Verhandlung der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft 18 (1916). 173-177pp. 230 x 157 mm. Original printed wrappers. Fine copy. First Edition, Offprint Issue. In 1915 Einstein and Dutch physicist Wander Johannes de Haas conducted gyromagnetic experiments leading to the discovery of the Einstein-de Haas effect, which corresponds to the mechanical rotation induced in a ferromagnetic cylinder suspended inside a coil when an impulse of electric current is sent through the coil. Einstein was very enthusiastic about the experimental results, stating that he and de Haas had "given firm proof of the existence of Ampère's molecular currents" (quoted in Pais, Subtle is the Lord, pp. 245-246). After his collaboration with de Haas ended, Einstein published the present paper on the Einstein-de Haas effect, proposing a new experimental method for determining gyromagnetism. The Einstein-de…

Original printed wrappers, creased vertically, holes punched in left margin. Inscribed by Pavlov to physiologist Ernest Henry Starling (1866-1927) as follows: "Dem Prof. E. H. Starling mit vielen Grüssen vom Verfasser." First Edition Offprint Issue. Pavlov received the 1904 Nobel Prize in physiology / medicine for his studies of the physiology of digestion, which revealed the part that the nervous system plays in controlling digestive secretions. In conducting his physiological researches, Pavlov introduced the method of long-term or continuous experimentation, which—in contrast with traditional vivisectional methods—allowed him to study the operation of physiological processes in healthy animals under normal conditions over extended periods of time. His investigations of the nervous system's role in digestion…

(1) First Edition in Journal Form, Revised, of Einstein's doctoral thesis, ranked by his biographer as being on the same level as his 1905 papers on relativity, the light quanta and Brownian motion. In his thesis, Einstein presented a new theoretical method for determining molecular radii and Avogadro's number (the number of atoms or molecules needed to make up a mass equal to a substance's atomic or molecular weight, in grams). The thesis appeared in print in the spring of 1905; in the journal version, published at the beginning of 1906, Einstein added a brief appendix containing an improved value of Avogadro's number. Einstein's biographer, Abraham…
