‎---- EDTION ORIGINALE ---- BON EXEMPLAIRE ---- "Leçons sur le carbone, published from Le Chatelier's lectures at the Sorbonne, opens with a discussion of the meaning of science and scientific laws. He then describes the various forms of carbon, leading up to a discussion of fuels and metallic carbides. The industrial uses of these materials are described. A survey of oxides of carbon and the carbonates leads to a consideration of the laws of equilibrium, including a description of his own work. The book concludes with a section on atomic and molecular weights, although Le Chatelier avoids descriptions in atomic terms. Historical examples are given throughout...".
