Hardcover. Condizione: Good. **Rare work** William W. Hill and Alfred Coe. **NO COPIES found in WorldCat** "Finger Print Classification. International Laboratories of Forensic Research ("Budd Lake, NJ, PO Box 302"). 1937. 11x8.5",  (i), 32pp, 9 plates (of close-up fingerprint drawings). Mimeographed wirk bound in a three-ring binder. The binder is in FAIR condition (3/10), with the spine backstrip lacking and both boards detached. The text is dusted but crisp.  Text is in GOOD condition (5-6/10), though probably a little better.  __+__ This work states that it is based upon the Henry System (1) of fingerprint classification, which buy this point had been around for more than 50 years. It seems that the addition to the field that this work attempts to make is reordering the way in which fingerprint data is stored. The Henry System evidently used a cabinet drawer divided into 32x32 sections--here the sections are 12x12, though there are subdivisions of type patterns that seem to make the organization more extensive along with an additional numerical system (with arithmetical rules and functions) that I haven't devoted any time to understanding. __+__ This work is unknown to WorldCat/OCLC, and is not  findable via standard means online. For one reason or another, this work received little or no circulation.  __+__ NOTES: (1.) The Henry Classification System is a long-standing method (begun ca. 1877) by which fingerprints are sorted by physiological characteristics for one-to-many searching. Developed by Hem Chandra Bose, Azizul Haque and Sir Edward Henry in the late 19th century for criminal investigations in British India, it was the basis of modern-day AFIS (Automated Fingerprint Identification System) classification methods up until the 1990s. .

Some brownspots to plates and offsettings from plates, not affecting Prout's papers. Prout's papers: pp. 320-330 a. pp. 111-113. Internally clean. First appearance of a milestone-paper in the history of chemistry and atomic theory as Prout here set forth - coupled with experimental evidences - the theory that the elements seems to have atomic weights that are whole number multiples of the atomic weight of hydrogen and that all elements is in some way a combination of hydrogen atoms. The theory announced here in Prout's first paper on the subjecy, is called PROUT'S HYPOTHESIS, and it was "not until the twentieth century that new views of the atom, arising out of the Second Scientific revolution of the 1890s, revitalized the notion. As a result of the work of Soddy and Aston a new form of Prout's hypothesis was established and Prout was found to be not wrong, but merely a century premature."(Asimov)."The concept of a primary substance as the basis of all matter has a tempting simplicity which has appealed to thinkers from the classic Greek age to our own day. The idea was revived in a new garb in 1815-1816 by a London physician, Willia Prout, who observed that with few exceptions the specific gravities of elementary gases (i.e., their atomic weight) were evenmultiples of of that of hydrogen. The experimental errors in the data then available were such asto make the hypothesis appear plausible. Prout concluded, therefore, that hydrogen isthe fundamental constituent from which all other elements are compounded. his idea that all matter is composed of the same material is now established."(Leicester & Klickstein in "A Source Book in Chemistry 1400-1900", p. 275 ff.). - See also note to PMM 407, entry Moseley The Atomic Table.Parkinson "Breakthroughs", 1816 C.
