Camille Jordan / Pierre Duhem / Jacques Joguet / Alfred Liénard / Maurice Gevrey - Rare ensemble de 34 fascicules originaux du Journal de Mathématiques Pures et Appliquées (1906–1935) - 1906-1935

Exceptional gathering of 34 original fascicules (quarterly paperback issues) from the most prestigious French scientific journal of the Belle Époque to the interwar period. Published by Gauthier-Villars, this set offers a unique panorama of the world elite in mathematical physics, general algebra, thermodynamics, and rational mechanics.
This collection includes 6 complete years (4/4 fascicules) and 3 nearly complete years (3/4 fascicules) from the pre-war period, as well as a precious interwar milestone (1935). It contains absolute reference texts and world theoretical “birth acts” (Chapman-Jouguet, Gevrey Classes, Liénard-Chipart criterion).
