First Edition, and very scarce on the market, with no copies in auction records. ukasiewicz's first book, on the principle of contradiction in Aristotle's writings, marks his earliest attempt to "open up on logic vistas comparable to those opened in geometry by the introduction of non-Euclidian systems" (McCall, Polish Logic, 1920-1938, p. 2). ukasiewicz, a Polish logician and philosopher, introduced mathematical logic into Poland and was one of the principal founders, architects and teachers of the Warsaw school of logic.

Manchester, 1865. Radford, Thomas (1793-1881). Observations on the caesarean section and on other obstetric operations. With an appendix of cases. [4], 68, xlviii pp. 6 plates, 2 folding tables (pp. 65-68). Manchester: N.p., 1865. 216 x 137 mm. Original cloth over limp boards, stamped in gilt and blind, skillfully rebacked, light edgewear. Lower corner of title-leaf chipped, occasional foxing but very good. Presentation Copy, inscribed on the title: "For the Library of the Sheffield General Infirmary Presented by the Author." First Edition. Radford, an obstetrician associated with St. Mary's Hospital in Manchester, wrote the present work to promote the use of cesarean section—at that time a highly risky operation with an extremely high mortality rate—in cases where the woman's pelvis was too narrow or deformed for vaginal delivery. Radford's arguments were based on moral as well as medical grounds: He abhorred the then-standard practice of craniotomy (puncturing or crushing the fetal head) to…

In 1853 the Swedish engineers Georg and Edvard Scheutz constructed their first successful working Difference Engine, a calculating and printing machine based on Babbage's designs and research. Babbage applauded the Scheutzes' efforts and did his best to publicize their machine, as he did in this address to the Royal Society in which he gave a brief summary of the Scheutz machine's construction, noted that it had won a gold medal at the Paris Exposition, and chided the Royal Society for failing to honor the Scheutzes in similar fashion. "Sweden has thus secured for herself the glory of having been the first nation…

"In this essay Priestley showed that in air collected after the processes of combustion, respiration or putrefaction, one-fifth of the volume disappeared. He had also observed that mint grew vigorously in air tainted by animal respiration and that evidently plants reversed the process of polluting the air as respiration did. In this paper he also announced two…

1955. First edition. Discovery of the Antiproton Chamberlain, Owen (1920-2006), Emilio Segrè (1905-89) et al. Observation of antiprotons. In The Physical Review, 2nd series, 100 (1955): 947-50. Whole number. 763-979pp. 268 x 202 mm. Original printed wrappers, vertical crease in back wrapper. Boxed. First Edition, journal issue. Segrè and Chamberlain, colleagues at the University of California, Berkeley, shared the 1959 Nobel Prize in physics for their discovery of the antiproton, a particle with the same mass and spin as the proton but with opposite charge and magnetic moment. Such antiparticles had been predicted in 1928 by Dirac's relativistic theory of the electron, and the first such particle, the positron, had been discovered by C. D. Anderson in 1932. Several rival groups at Berkeley also entered the antiproton hunt, but the Segrè team's experimental ingenuity insured its triumph: "I decided to attack the problem in two ways. One was based on the determination of the charge and mass of the…

Blundell, a British obstetrician, was the first to perform a human-to-human blood transfusion in which the patient survived. "Blundell established the most fundamental points in transfusion, including the incompatibility of interspecies transfusion and the method of indirect transfusion. With his descriptions of about ten cases over a ten-year period, Blundell revived interest in blood transfusion after a century-long hiatus" (Garrison-Morton.com 2017). ). The paper's two illustrations show Blundell's "Gravitator," a transfusion apparatus that was used throughout the 19th century. The present extract also includes a summary of Dieffenbach's report on transfusion experiments performed in…
