"One of the most important books in the history of chemistry which finally freed the science from its phlogiston chains and formed the starting point of its modern progress. It may be said to have done almost as much for chemistry as Newton's "Principia" did for Physics. (Zeitlinger)" (Duveen p. 340). "Lavoisier's chemical textbook includes the unified exposition of his four most significant contributions to chemistry. There are first, the use of accurate measurements for chemical researches, such as the balance for weight distribution at every chemical change ; second, researches on combustion which effectively overthrew the phlogiston theory of Stahl ; third, the law of conversation of mass ; and fourth, the reform of chemical nomenclature, whereby every substance was assigned a definite name based upon the elements of which it was composed. The thirteen copperplate illustrations for the Traité were drawn and engraved by Lavoisier's wife, engraver and painter" (Norman 1295). Klickstein n° 157. En français dans le texte n° 184.

Paris, chez Cuchet, 1789. 2 vol. in-8, XLIV-322 pp. 2 tableaux dépliants + VIII-324-653-[2] 13 pl., veau marbré havane, triple filet doré en encadrement sur les plats, dos long orné de frises et fleurons dorés, pièce de titre et tomaison brune (épidermures, manques, 4 mors fendus, coins émoussés, rousseurs, quelques taches). Édition originale de premier tirage de ce livre fondateur de la chimie moderne. Elle est illustrée de deux tableaux dépliants au premier volume et de 13 planches gravées reliées in fine du second volume, signées sur la planche Paulze Lavoisier, nom de l'épouse de Lavoisier. Dans cet ouvrage capital, Lavoisier étudie les éléments et les composants chimiques de façon systématique et logique, un élément étant la substance qui ne peut plus être décomposée chimiquement. Il y démontre la loi de la conservation des masses, connue par la célèbre maxime apocryphe : "Rien se perd, rien ne se créée, tout se transforme". Enfin, il dément la théorie du phlogistique en démontrant le rôle de l'oxygène dans le processus de combustion. Zeitlinger, auteur da la Bibliotheca chemico-mathematica, résume ainsi l'importance de cet ouvrage : "On peut en dire qu'il a fait autant pour la chimie que les Principia de Newton ont fait pour la physique".

2 vol. in-8° reliés en 1 (205 x 125 mm.) de : XLIV; 653 pp.; VIII; 2 pp.; quelques tableaux dans le texte dont 1 dépliant ; 13 planches dépliantes. Demi basane d'époque, dos lisse orné, titre de maroquin rouge, plats recouverts de papier bleuté. (Coiffes supérieur restaurée, rousseurs). Seconde édition de ce traité d'une importance majeure par Lavoisier (1743-1794). Cette édition contient des tableaux et plusieurs extraits des registres de l'Académie des Sciences et d'autres sociétés savantes, non compris dans le premiere édition, dont on ne connaît que deux exemplaires. Considéré comme l'aboutissement de la réalisation de Lavoisier, ce traité de chimie posa les fondements de la chimie moderne et balaya les derniers vestiges de l'alchimie, supprima la théorie phlogistique qui avait entravé les progrès de la chimie au XVIIIe siècle. Lavoisier y expose ses contributions majeures à la chimie : il établit le concept de la conservation de la matière en prouvant que les corps composés représentent le poids combiné des substances simples qui les composent. Il résume et affine le travail qu'il avait commencé dans sa Méthode de nomenclature chimique (1787), réformant la nomenclature chimique, introduisant la définition moderne des éléments et des composés, et réduisant sa liste antérieure de 55 éléments à 33, qui sont encore reconnus aujourd'hui. Enfin, il montre que la combustion et la rouille résultent de combinaisons chimiques avec l'oxygène, ce qui invalide la théorie du phlogistique. Son utilisation intensive de l'équilibre chimique a en outre établi la nécessité de mesures précises pour les recherches chimiques. 2 vol. in-8° bound in 1 (205 x 125 mm.) of: XLIV; 653 pp.; VIII; 2 pp.; some tables in the text including 1 leaflet; 13 folding plates. Contemporary French calf-backed boards, morocco lettering-piece. Second edition of this treatise of major importance by Lavoisier (1743-1794). This edition contains tables and several excerpts from the records of the Academy of Sciences, not included in the first edition, of which only two copies are known. Considered as the culmination of Lavoisier's achievement, this treatise on chemistry laid the foundations of modern chemistry and swept away the last vestiges of alchemy, suppressing the phlogistic theory that had hindered the progress of chemistry in the eighteenth century. Lavoisier exposes his major contributions to chemistry: he establishes the concept of the conservation of matter by proving that the composite bodies represent the combined weight of the simple substances that compose them. He summarizes and refines the work he had begun in his Chemical Nomenclature Method (1787), reforming chemical nomenclature, introducing the modern definition of elements and compounds, and reducing his earlier list of 55 elements to 33, which are still recognized today. Lavoisier shows also that combustion and rust result from chemical combinations with oxygen, which invalidates the theory of phlogiston. Its intensive use of chemical equilibrium has further established the need for precise measurements for chemical research. Fine copy.

Couverture rigide. Etat : Bon. first edition. 2 volumes 8vo (195 x 120 mm) 2 unn.l., V -XLIV, 322 pp.  and 2 charts for the volume I ; VIII, 324-653 pp., 1 nn.l., 13 engraved plates for volume II. Contemporary speckled calf, flat spine gilt, (contemporary binding). Duveen et Klickstein, 154; PMM, 238; Horblit, 64; Dibner, 43.First edition, second issue. This is the so-called second issue of the first edition in two volumes.The first "trial" issue is in one volume, arranges material slightly differently and is known in only two or three copies. This second issue contains ten tables and several extracts from the registers of the Académie des Sciences and other learned societies, not included in the single volume issue - making this in fact the first complete edition.Lavoisier's revolutionary work outlined in this book had as much impact on chemistry as the French upheaval of the same year had on politics. This is a fundamental work in the history of modern chemistry containing a number of foundational ideas necessary to the progress of chemistry. Several critical ideas that appear in this book laid the firm foundation for Lavoisier's claim to the title as "the father of modern chemistry": (1) his use of accurate measurement for chemical research by using a balance with weight determinations being made at every possible stage of chemical change, (2) his experimental research on combustion which established that oxygen was the component in air that combined with metals during combustion and his naming of the resulting substances "oxides", (3) his exposition of the law of the conservation of mass, proving that matter remains constant thoughout all chemical change and (4) his definitive reform of chemical nomenclature, whereby every substance was named by an aggregate of its component elements.In addition, Lavoisier finally established the modern conception of elements as substances which cannot be further decomposed. In this work, he identified twenty three such elements - all of which are still recognized as such today. The broadest and most significant effect of Lavoisier's treatise was that it once and for all put to rest the phlogiston theory (that had mislead scientists for over a century) and destroyed any residual belief in alchemy.A fine copy in  good condition.

Antoine Laurent Lavoisier's Traité élémentaire de chimie is considered to be the first modern textbook of chemistry, presenting a systematic and logical approach to the study of chemistry. Lavoisier introduced the concept of conservation of mass in chemical reactions, which is one of the fundamental principles of modern chemistry. He also recognized the role of oxygen in combustion and respiration, and his experiments helped to debunk the long-held theory of phlogiston. Last but not least, Lavoisier's work paved the way for the development of the metric system of measurement, which is still used today. To summarize, Lavoisier's milestone work marked a major turning point in the history of chemistry and laid the foundation for the modern study of the subject. Lavoisier's Traite ". . . was a decisive move in the final overthrow of alchemy and the phlogiston theory introduced by Stahl a century earlier. By the use of the balance of weight determination at every chemical change and the building of a rational system of elements, Lavoisier laid the foundation of modern chemistry" (Dibner). The illustrations for this edition were conceived and executed by Lavoisier's wife, a skilled painter and engraver who had studied under Louis David, and who collaborated with her husband in his scientific experiments and researches. The second issue contains tables and various approvals of the work not included in the single-volume first or trial issue, of which only two copies are known.
