‎Saru no Saiban: Yusho Reppai. - [THE FIRST REPUDIATION OF DARWIN'S THEORY OF EVOLUTION IN JAPANESE]‎

‎Tokyo, Nishimura Tomijiro, Fukuda Eizo, Meiji 21 [1881]. 8vo. In the original cloth binding with printed front board (depicting a monkey reading a newspaper). Light wear and soiling to extremities and end papers soiled, otherwise in fine condition. 285 pp. + 3 plates.‎

‎The rare first Japanese translation of W. P. Lyon's anti-evolutionary text ' Homo versus Darwin'. It constitutes the very first publication in Japanese to reject Darwin's theory. A year after the publication, the book was banned for 'corrupting public morals'.The present work is Lyon's reply to the publication of Darwin's The Descent of Man. Here, he sees Darwin being charged by Homo of denying him from being a creature made by a God and declaring man to be merely some kind of animal. The author is recorded as being 'Eisa Gurei' [Asa Gray], but in 1986 a study confirmed the text to be a translation of Lyon's work.'Saru no Saiban' is an important work in the history of the reception of Darwinism in Japan. Darwin's theories had a profound influence on Japan and Japanese culture but in a slightly different way than in the West: Darwinism was marked as social and political principles primarily embraced by social thinkers, philosophers and politicians to advocate the superiority of Japanese culture and society (and military) and not by biologists and zoologists. ""It was as if Darwin's famous oceanic journey and the meticulous research into the animal and plant kingdoms that he spent his life undertaking had all been staged as an elaborate excuse for composing a theory whose true object was Victorian society and the fate of the world's modern nations."" (Golley, Darwinism in Japan: The Birth of Ecology).‎

‎, Atlas Contact, Uitgeverij, 2009 Hardcover, 575 pagina's, NL, 260 x 240 x 45 mm, stofomslag, in Nieuwstaat, talrijke illustraties in kleur / z/w,. ISBN 9789045013312.‎

‎Het ontstaan van soorten, het bekendste werk van Charles Darwin, verscheen op 24 november 1859 en heeft tot op de dag van vandaag veel opschudding veroorzaakt. Darwin beschrijft nauwkeurig de werking van de natuurlijke selectie, de basis voor het ontstaan van soorten. De evolutietheorie die hieruit is voortgekomen, is en blijft een van de meest revolutionaire visies op mens en natuur uit de wereldgeschiedenis. Dit maakt Het ontstaan van soorten een van de belangrijkste teksten van de moderne tijd.‎

‎First printing of the exceedingly rare second Armenian translation of Darwin's landmark work. The first translation (translated by S. Sargsyan) was published in 1936 and both translations are of the upmost scarcity. Due to the relatively low number of people speaking Armenian (approximately 3 million in Armenia and 7 million outside) books in Armenian were printed in comparatively low numbers. This is one of the very few translations of ""Origin of Species"" of which Freeman has not listed the collation. This suggests that he never actually saw the copy but only read of it.

Robb : A alpha ray - En 1907, Ernest Rutherford obtient un poste de professeur à l'Université de Manchester, où il travaille avec Hans Geiger, avec qui il invente un compteur permettant de détecter les particules alpha émises par les substances radioactives (ébauche du futur compteur Geiger), car en ionisant le gaz qui se trouve dans l'appareil, elles produisent une décharge détectable. En 1908, avec un de ses étudiants, Thomas Royds, il prouve définitivement ce qu'on supposait, à savoir que les particules alpha sont bien des noyaux d'hélium. Ou plutôt, que les particules alpha sont des atomes d'hélium une fois débarrassés de leurs charges négatives. Pour le prouver, il isole la substance radioactive dans un matériau suffisamment mince pour que les particules alpha le traversent effectivement, mais pour que cela bloque toute « émanation » des éléments radioactifs, c'est-à-dire tout produit de la désintégration. Il recueille ensuite le gaz qui se trouve autour de la boîte qui contient les échantillons et analyse son spectre. Il y trouve alors une grande quantité d'hélium : les noyaux que sont les particules alpha ont récupéré des électrons disponibles. Il obtient la même année le prix Nobel de chimie « pour ses recherches touchant la désintégration des éléments [chimiques], et la chimie des substances radioactives2 ». Il en conserve cependant une certaine déception, car il se considère avant tout comme un physicien. Une de ses citations célèbres est : « La science, soit c'est de la physique, soit c'est de la philatélie », voulant sans doute signifier par là qu'il plaçait la physique au-dessus des autres sciences. C'est en 1911 qu'il fait sa plus grande contribution à la science en découvrant le noyau atomique. Il avait observé à Montréal qu'en bombardant une fine feuille de mica avec des particules alpha, on obtenait une déflexion de ces particules. Geiger et Marsden, refaisant de façon plus poussée ces expériences en utilisant une feuille d'or, avaient constaté que certaines particules alpha étaient déviées de plus de 90 degrés. Rutherford émet alors l'hypothèse qu'au centre de l'atome devait se trouver un « noyau » contenant presque toute la masse et toute la charge positive de l'atome, les électrons déterminant en fait la taille de l'atome. Geiger et Marsden vérifièrent par la suite ces conclusions par l'expérience. - Ce modèle planétaire avait été suggéré en 1904 par un Japonais, Hantaro Nagaoka, mais était passé inaperçu on y objectait que les électrons auraient dû rayonner en tournant autour du noyau central et donc y tomber. Les résultats de Rutherford montrèrent que ce modèle était sans doute le bon, puisqu'il permettait de prévoir avec exactitude le taux de diffusion des particules alpha en fonction de l'angle de diffusion et de la taille de l'atome. Les dernières objections théoriques sur le rayonnement de l'électron tombèrent avec le début de la théorie quantique et l'adaptation par Niels Bohr du modèle de Rutherford à la théorie de Planck, démontrant ainsi la stabilité de l'atome de Rutherford.
