First French printing of Stas's importent (first) paper in which he demonstrates the incommensurability of the atomic weights, proving that atomic weights are not whole numbers or multiples of halv or a quarter of the atomic weight of hydrogen.""Stas demonstrated that the values of the atomic weights he had determined were neither multiples of unity, nor of one half, as Marignac believed, nor of one quarter, as Dumas maintained. This publication led Marignac to doubt the universality of the law of definite proportions. In three papers collectively entitled ""Nouvelles recherches sur les lois des proportions chimiques, sur les poids atomiques et leurs rapports mutuels"" (1865), Stas presented the results of an extensive series of experiments devoted to the new demonstration. By painstaking and accurate measurements he established that atomic weights were incommensurable, thereby disproving the facile conclusion that discrepancies with whole-number values were due merely to experimental errors. Prout’s hypothesis was thus discredited.""(DSB).

First appearance in full of this paper, stating the correct weight of the carbon atom, which had profound influence on the development of organic chemistry. The first announcement (in extrait) came out in Comptes rendus, Tome Xi, 1840.""From 1840 onward he carried out an important revision of the atomic weights of thirty elements. His most valuable contribution in this field was his very precise determination of the atomic weight of carbon (jointly with his pupil Stas) in 1840.2 A previously accepted weight, determined by Berzelius as C = 12.20 (O = 16), was shown to be incorrect. Dumas proved that C = 12±.002 (O = 16) or C = 75 (O = 100). The analysis was made by burning diamond and artificial and natural graphite in oxygen"" the carbon dioxide formed was weighed in potash solution. The results were in close agreement. The ""new"" weight of carbon had a great effect on the progress of organic chemistry.""(DSB).The volume contains further notable papers by Gerhardt et Cahours ""Recherches chimiques sur les huiles essentitielles"", pp. 60-110, by Laurent, Boussingault, Regnault, Dulong, Melloni et al.

(Paris, Fortin, Masson et Cie, 1840). 8vo. Without wrappers. Extracted from 'Annales de Chimie et de Physique', 2e Series, tome 73. Pp. 73-103 (incl. Note de Liebig pp. 100-103) and pp. 113-166. Some scattered brownspots.
This paper, which was published at the same year in ""Comptes Rendues"" (3 Fevrier), is the most importent on the theory of structural types and the nomenclature of organic compounds, refuting the electrochemical theory of Berzelius. ""The development of this idea (type organique) into what is sometimes called the ""Older Type Theory"", as distinguished from Gerhardt's Type heory, is contained in Dumas' importent memoir on the substitution and the theory of types, presented on 3 febriary 1840.""(Partington IV, p. 365). In the second paper Stas and Dumas record the first use of 'potash-lime', the precursor of soda-lime, an invaluable reagent in organic chemistry.""Jean Baptiste Dumas advances a theory that the chemical properties of an organic compound are determined by its structure and not, as seems to be the case with inorganic compounds, by its electrical properties. he illustrates the concept with the example that the basic qualitative properties of acetic acid are retained even after replacing three fourths of the hydrogen by chlorine. As a consequence, he calls for a revision of chemical nomenclature for organic compounds, basing terms on common features, not on elemental composition.""(Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1840 C).

Oncologische Heelkunde / Surgical Oncology : 04. The subject of this book is the diagnosis and primary treatment of lipomatous tumors, the most frequent soft tissue tumors in adults. This makes it unique as no other book on this topic is currently available. The subject is treated in a multidisciplinary approach and developed in a logical order from basic knowledge to diagnosis, treatment and prognosis. The actual histologic classification is presented and its modifications illustrated. Several specific chromosomal abnormalities have been discovered recently and already two genes involved in myxoid liposarcoma and lipoma have been identified. The clinical spectrum of these tumors is covered and their radiological diagnosis by CT scan and MRI is well illustrated. A new topographical approach to abdominal liposarcoma is presented. The role of biopsy and the problem of surgical margins at resection is discussed against the general background of sarcoma surgery. Surgical experience with lipomatous tumors localized beneath the muscle fascia on limbs and trunk and in the retroperitoneum is analyzed in detail. The role of adjuvant radiotherapy in the treqtment of liposarcoma is critically examined and a review on prognosis is presented as well as a follow-up scheme for each histologic type. This book contains very valuable information for surgeons, radiologists, oncologists, radiotherapists and scientists with a special interest in soft tissue tumors.

Oncologische Heelkunde / Surgical Oncology : 01. Het maligne melanoom is de meest kwaadaardige tumor van de huid en kan ontstaan in een banale naevus. Een vroegtijdige diagnose en chirurgische behandeling is van levensbelang. Gedurende de laatste jaren is het aantal melanomen duidelijk toegenomen. Daarom ook werd door de dienst Oncologische Heelkunde van de Universitaire Ziekenhuizen Leuven een studiedag aan dit probleem gewijd. Dit boek bestaat uit bijdragen van verschillende specialisten in dit domein: dermatologen, chirurgen, oncologen, een patholoog en een verpleegkundige. Artsen die soms met een melanoom worden geconfronteerd vinden hier de aktuele standaard voor diagnose en behandeling.
