Cloth, 8vo, viii, 669 pp, 16 plates. Approximately 3,000 entries. From Duveen's introduction: "My main interest was, and indeed still is, the gathering of old and newer books on chemistry, but as the harvest proceeded I soon found other more or less related subjects being involved; alchemy, technology, metallurgy, mineralogy, dyeing, pharmacy and balneology. A special word about this last subject is not amiss, for the important part which many early works on balneology play in providing details of contemporary development and practice in analytical chemistry does not appear to have been previously recorded. .The Young collection [catalogued in Ferguson's Bibliotheca Chemica] was particularly strong in 16th and 17th century books on both alchemy and chemistry - it was comparatively weak in 18th century works relating to chemistry and contained virtually no 19th century chemical works. These latter two centuries are important to the student of the history of chemistry, and my own collection provides a considerable selection of representative works relating to this period." Faint spotting to top edge, otherwise Fine.

Cloth, gilt facsimile signature on front board, 8vo, 27 cm, xxiii, 491, [2] pp. "The principle has been followed in this bibliography of listing each paper and every volume in which Lavoisier's name is given as one of the authors or which were issued by an organization during his tenure of executive office, also in those cases in which his authorship could not be incontestibly proved or even when the evidence suggested that he did not write a specific article although he signed his name to it. The circumstances are pointed out in each individual case of this type. All anonymous publications, the original manuscripts of which are preserved and which are printed in the Oeuvres, have also been included. In the notes to each item Lavoisier's relationship to the particular piece under consideration has always been indicated. The material thus assembled is arranged in six sections. Section A contains all his contributions to periodical works arranged in chronological order. Lavoisier's four major works are described in section B. His minor separate works and contributions to separate works will be found in section C. Section D comprises a number of miscellaneous works containing material written by Lavoisier. Section E consists of a group of works which print reports on them submitted to the Acad by Lavoisier or by him in collaboration with others. Section F lists collected works devoted to Lavoisier only and which contain more than one of his writings.The separate numbered items are not only bibliographically described but they are also analyzed as to their content and historical importance. It is realized that the analytical commentaries are extensive, but it was felt that they would be especially useful owing to the scarcity and consequent difficulty in consulting the originals of many of Lavoisier's works." - from the introduction. Duveen's own extensive collection of Lavoisier is now at Cornell university. Slightly rubbed, Good.
