All edges gilt. Dust-darkened wear to edges and extremities small losses to head of spine front joint rubbed. Author's fond inscription in black pen and an attractive hand to half-title: "To Jacob Bright Esq.r M.P./ With the sincere good wishes of/ T W Newbigging". Else clean and bright. An attractive copy of an unusual title especially with authorial dedication. Jisc LHD lists 6 copies UoAberdeen Bishopsgate Library Howell Collection BL UoCambridge John Rylands & NLS. Thomas Newbigging 1833-1914 was a Scottish historian and engineer who made his home in Lancashire – Rossendale and Manchester – hence the subject of this collection's first essay 'Lancashire Factory Doffers'. He was an expert in gas engineering wrote the The Gas Manager's Handbook 1870; which ran to at least eight editions as well as serving as President of the Gas Institute in 1885. Three years after the publication of this title Newbigging stood unsuccessfully as the Liberal Party's candidate for Rossenadale. As the title perhaps suggests this essay collection wanders broadly in terms of subject matter – from the cotton industry to Gull Moss and Thomas Chatterton to Oliver Goldsmith – but mostly with a strong Lancashire flavour. The better known of the pair Jacob Bright 1821-1899 was a politician the first Mayor of Rochdale and Liberal MP for Manchester from 1867. When J. S. Mill lost his Commons seat the following year Bright became leader of the suffragists in parliament and with Sir Charles Dilke introduced the first woman's suffrage bill in 1870 ODNB.

NEWTON Isaac 1643 1727 'sGRAVESANDE Willem Jacob 1688 1742.
Mathematical Elements of Natural Philosophy Confirm'd by Experiments: Or an Introduction to Sir Isaac Newton's Philosophy. Written in Latin by the late W. James s'Gravesande. Translated into English by J. T. Desaguliers. The Sixth Edition greatly improved by the author.
London:: Printed by W. Innys T. Longman and T. Shewell C. Hitch and M. Senex 1747. 1747. 2 volumes. 4to. 4 lxxv 1 475 1; ii 389 33 pp. Original full calf raised bands calf gilt-stamped red & brown spine labels; joints cracked. Small rubberstamp on title. Very good. NICE CLEAN COPY. Sixth edition "greatly improved by the author" of 'sGravedande's extensive experimentation and instruction in Newtonian physics. The experiments range from basic physics to hydraulics optics electricity and astronomy. The entire work is profusely illustrated with folding engraved plates detailing among many other experiments and apparatuses a steam-powered Hero's Engine plate 78 a static electricity generator plate 79 the first magic lantern slide projector plate 109 the prismatic effect of a rainbow plate 120 and the known solar system plate 122. 'sGravesande "is the author of Elements de physique demonstres mathematiquement. . . ou introduction a la philosophie Newtonienne which was translated from the Latin and published at Leyden in 1746. In the second volume he gives a description of an electrical machine constructed on the plan of that of Hauksbee. It consisted merely of a crystal globe which was mounted upon a copper stand and against which was pressed the hand of the operator while it was made to revolve rapidly by means of a large wheel." Mottelay. / Willem Jacob 'sGravesande was a Dutch philosopher and mathematician. Born in 's-Hertogenbosch he studied law in Leiden and wrote a thesis on suicide. In 1715 he visited London and King George I. He became a member of the Royal Society. In 1717 he became professor in physics and astronomy in Leiden and introduced the works of his friend Newton in the Netherlands. He was ardently opposed to fatalists like Hobbes and Spinoza. In 1724 Peter the Great offered him a job in Saint Petersburg but 'sGravesande did not accept. His best remembered work is Physices elementa mathematica experimentis confirmata sive introductio ad philosophiam Newtonianam or Mathematical Elements of Natural Philosophy Confirm'd by Experiments Leiden 1720 in which he laid the foundations for teaching Newtonian physics. / 'sGravesande's chief original contribution to physics involved an experiment in which brass balls are dropped with varying velocity onto a soft clay surface. This demonstrated that a ball with twice the velocity of another would leave an indentation four times as deep that three times the velocity yielded nine times the depth and so on. He shared these results with Emilie du Châtelet who subsequently corrected Newton's formula E = mv to E = mv2. / 'sGravesande was also the owner of the oldest known magic lantern which was built around 1720 by Jan van Musschenbroek and is currently housed at the Museum Booerhave in Leiden. / "From the outset of his teaching both physics and astronomy 'sGravesande modeled his lectures on the example of Newton in the Principia and Opticks although in later years they incorporated other influences especially that of Boerhaave. Moreover he adopted from Keill and Desaguliers the notion of demonstrating to his classes the experimental proof of scientific principles accumulating an ever larger collection of apparatus as may be seen from successive editions of his Physics elementa mathematica experimentis confirmata. Sive introductio ad philosophiam Newtonianam Leiden 1720 1721. The scientific reputation of 'sGravesande is enshrined in this book which he constantly corrected and amplified in later editions. An 'official' English translation prepared by Desaguliers to whom copies of the Latin original were sent in haste was also issued in 1720 and 1721 and it passed through six editions. The booksellers Mears and Woodward printed a rival version under the name of John Keill. French translations appeared only in 1746 and 1747 but a critical review by L. B. Castel was published in the Memoires de Trevoux in May and October 1721. The book was at once welcomed by British and a number of German scholars." – DSB V p. 510.

He was one of the authors in the Modern Breakthrough movement in Danish art and literature. He was a socialist throughout his life and during the second world war moved to the Soviet Union and afterwards to Dresden in East Germany. Wikipedia After finishing he worked as a teacher in a Grundtvigian folk school until he became tubercular and went to Spain and Italy to convalesce. Thereafter he concentrated on writing. On his stay in Spain he wrote Soldage/ Days in the Sun. Nexø's first novels are in the decadent pessimistic manner common around the turn of the century. His mature authorship began with the four-volume Pelle the Conqueror 1906-1910 and from this time on Nexø devoted his writing to the awakening proletariat the existence of which had gone virtually unnoticed in Danish literature. The title figure of Nexø's other masterpiece the five-volume Ditte Child of Man 1917-1921 is Pelle's female counterpart who symbolizes the situation of the proletarian woman. Today Nexø is acknowledged as one of Denmark's finest realistic storytellers the only modern Danish writer who has an undisputed place in world literature. Encyclopedia hardcover
