Paris, Crochard, 1817. Contemp. hcloth. Spine with gilt lettering. In: ""Annales de Chimie, ou Recueil de Mémoires concernant la Chemie"" 2e Series, Tome 6. - 448,(4) pp. a. 2 engraved plates. (The entire volume offered). Fourier's paper: pp. 259-303. A few scattered brownspots.
First apperance of this importent memoir in which Fourier gives an account of the Physical theory of heat conduction and radiation.""Fourier made observations on the heating power of the Sun and on night-time refrigeration. He conducted experiments on the heating and cooling of objects of different composition and shape, and on the transmission,absorption and reflection of radiant heat. He employed basic physical principles and formulated mathematical laws to explain and predict universal phenomena, such as ‘the progressive extinction of heat rays in the atmosphere."" (James R. Fleming)
