‎---- Deuxième édition française "With FRESNEL's and AMPERE's ORIGINAL MEMOIRS ON LIGHT AND ELECTRICITY" ---- BON EXEMPLAIRE ---- "A self-taught chemist, THOMSON first secured his reputation through the publication of the System, which was so popular that it went through six editions during the next eighteen years... As the first systematic treatise of a nonelementary kind to break the French monopoly of such works, THOMSON's System tried patriotically to justice to the contributions made by British chemists to the new chemistry, which had been established in the late eighteenth century...". (DSB XIII p. 372/373) ---- "This is the second french edition translated by Riffault who added an Appendix of new discoveries to vol. IV.
