Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. FARADAY, Michael. "Experimental-Untersuchungen uber Elektricitat" AND WITH: "Zweite Reihe von Experimental-Untersuchungen uber Elektricitat". Leipzig, Johann Ambrosius Barth, 1832. "Annalen der Physik und Chemie", series II, vol 25; viii, 648 pp. and 6 plates, 5 folding. The Faraday papers occupy… pp. 91-142 and 142-186, with 3 associated folding engraved plates. Offered in the entire volume, bound in black cloth spine and marbled boards. [++] CONDITION and PROVENANCE: ex-library and lightly so, from the library of Bernhard Meining; then, the Deutsche Akademie der Luftfahtforschung; and on the USAAF library at Wright Patterson, and finally to the Library of Congress. Very fresh. These are the first German editions of the first memoirs of Faraday's researches on electricity, being the first two papers of his "Experimental Researches in Electricity", and containing his fundamental discovery of electromagnetic induction, and the description of the first electrical generator. The papers first appeared in Philosophical transactions in 1832. [++] Also in this volume: Elie de Beaumont "Zweiter geologischer Brief.an A.v. Humboldt "Uber die relative Alter der Gebirgszage", pp. 1-58 with two plates. There are also papers by E. Lenz, F.E. Neumann, de Saussure, Moser, Gay-Lussac, and numerous others. [++] "Although his [Faraday's] discovery of the electric motor and the dynamo was almost entirely identical to his theoretical discoveries, it laid the foundation of the modern electrical industry - electric light and power, telephony, wireless telegraphy, television etc. - by providing for the production of continuous mechanical motion from an electrical source, and vice versa."--Printing and the Mind of Man, 308. "The history of science is filled with examples of key discoveries and breakthroughs that have been published as landmark texts or journal papers, and to which one can trace the origins of whole disciplines. Such paradigm-shifting publications include Copernicus' De revolutionibus orbium coelestium (1543), Isaac Newton's Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica (1687) and Albert Einstein's papers on relativity (1905 and 1915). Michael Faraday's 1832 paper on electromagnetic induction sits proudly among these works and in a sense can be regarded as having an almost immediate effect in transforming our world in a very real sense more than any of the others listed."--Jim Al-Khalili, "The birth of the electric machines: a commentary on Faraday (1832) Experimental researches in electricity ", Philosophical transactions, 13 April 2015, volume 373 issue 2039.

The plate dampstained in upper margin, outside image. Clean and fine. These two important papers were presented to The Royal Academy at the same date, and stitched together fro…m the Transactions.In his paper FARADAY observes importent relations between tension, pressure, temperature and gravitation as he proves that any kind of matter, not only air, ceases to assume the elastic form, whenever the gravitation of its particles is stronger than the elasticity of its vapour. The loss of tension necessary for effecting this object may be accomplished in two ways, either by extreme dilatation, or by cold.The paper by BBBAGE is the second of two papers on electromagnetism, the first written together with his friend J.F.W. Herschel."The curious phenomena of electromagnetism were beginning to be discovered during this period, and inevitably Babbage took an interest. In the spring of 1825 Gay Lussac visited London and described Arago's experiments with rotating discs. Plates of copper and other substances set in rapid motion in a magnetic field and under a magnetized needle caused it to deviate from its direction, finally dragging it round with them. At this time Herschel was secretary of the Royal Society and had rooms in Devonshire Street. Babbage and he carried out some quite extensive experiments in Babbage's house. They tried the effect with discs of many different substances using Babbage's lathe: only metals and graphite showed the effect and they concluded that the conductivity of the disc was the importent point.however they did not solve the problem of electromagnetic induction: æater their friend Michael Faraday did."(Hyman in "Charles Babbage. Pioneer of the Computer", p.58). - Babbage's first paper on electrical and magnetic rotation is listed by Hook & Norman :35, but not the paper offered.

First appearance of this famous paper in which Faraday describes his procedure to obtain liquefaction of chlorine and some of its properties. Faraday made an analysis of chlorine hydrate., finding… the composition. He showed the results to Davy, who suggested that he should heat this compound in a sealed tube. The result was the liquefaction of chlorine, reported in a note at the end of the paper"(Partington IV:p. 105).Parkinson "Breakthroughs", 1823 C.The paper comes together with Humphry Davy "On a new phenomenon of electro-magnetism", pp. 153-159 and Charles Bell's importent works on the physiology of the eye "On the Motion of the Eye, in illustration of the uses of the muscles and nerves of the orbit", pp. 166-186 a. 1 engraved plate. + "Second Part of the Paper on the nerves of the Orbit", pp. 289-307.

Add to basket(London, W. Nicol, 1922). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" 1822 - Part II. Pp. 273-270. Clean and fine. First appearance of a founding paper in the science of alloys."Beyond his work in analytical and pure chemistry, Faraday showed himself to be a pioneer in the application of chemistry to problems… of technology. In 1818, together with James Stodart, a cutler, he began a series of experiments on the alloys of steel. Although he was able to produce alloys of superior quality, they were not capable of commercial production because they required the use of such rare metals as platinum, rhodium, and silver. Nevertheless, Faraday demonstrated that the increasingly urgent problem of producing higher-grade steel could be attacked by science. The later work on steel of Henry Sorby, Henry Bessemer, and Robert A. Hadfield was based directly on Faraday's work in the early part of the century."(DSB IV, p. 531-532).

First appearance of this remarkable paper in which Faraday announces his discovery of Benzene. Berzelius described this research as "without doubt one of the most importent which has enriched che…mistry during 1825."The first public announcement of the discovery of benzene, the greatest chemical discovery made by Faraday. Originally named by him "bicaburet of hydrogen", benzene is the parent substance of all aromatic compounds. It constitutes the basis of thousands of organic compounds, dyes, perfumes, and medicinal products, as well as many polymers and structural materials. The discovery of benzene led to the creation of numerous chemical companies and the manufacture of materials previously unknown. This paper is a thourough study of the physical and chemical properties of benzene."(Neville I, p. 443). - Parkinson "Breakthrough" 1825 C.

First appearance of Faraday's first breakthrough in chemistry as he here synthesized for the first time chloro-carbons."In 1820 he (Faraday) produced the first known compounds of chlor…ine and carbon, C2Cl6 and C2Cl4. These compounds had been produced by the substitution of chlorine for hydrogen in "olefiant gas", our modern ethylene. This was the first substitution reaction" such reactions, in the hands of Charles Gerhardt and August Laurent in the 1840's, were to be used as a serious challenge to the dualistic electrochemical theories of J.J. Berzelius." (DSB IV, p. 531).Parkinson "Breakthrough" 1820 C.

This is the first Franch edition of the first series of Faradays "Experimental Researches in Electricity"."In 1821 a series of brilliant researches culminated in the discovery of electromagnetic rotation" in 1831, seemingly out of nowhere, came the discovery of electromagnetic induction and the beginning of the experimental researches in electricity which were to lead Faraday to the discovery of the laws of electrochemistry, specific inductive capacity, the Faraday effect, and the foundations of classical field theory."(DSB)."Among experimental philosophers Faraday holds by universal consent the foremost place. The memoirs in which his discoveries are enshrined will never ceaseto be read with admiration and delight" and future generations will preserve with an affection not less enduring the personal records and familiar letters, which recall the memory of his humble and unselfish spirit."(Edmund Whittaker in 'A History of the Theories of Aether and Electricity' p. 197.
