AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare complete set for the year 1876 (first and second halves) of the famous Weekly Proceedings of the meetings of the Academy of Sciences. These two massive volumes are a gold mine for the history of science and medicine, covering all major discoveries and scientific communications of the era.
The year 1876 is crucial for Louis Pasteur. The volumes contain several of his fundamental communications printed for the first time, notably: Volume 82: his foundational notes on fermentation (in direct response to criticisms by Drs. Brefeld and Traube), his observations on the vegetation of plants devoid of chlorophyll (with Boussingault), as well as his famous note on cellular grainage for the preparation of the silkworm eggs.
Volume 83: His major article written in collaboration with J. Joubert: On the fermentation of urine (followed by his famous exchanges and scientific duels with Marcellin Berthelot).
