‎---- EDITION ORIGINALE ---- BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- TRES RARE RECUEIL PUBLIE PAR KOENIG dans lequel sont réunies les diverses publications qui ont paru à l'époque concernant la célèbre polémique relative au principe de moindre action qui opposa Maupertuis à Koenig. Euler et Voltaire prirent part au débat et publièrent à cette occasion : "Dissertation sur le principe de moindre action avec l'examen des objections de Mr. Le Professeur Koenig faites contre ce principe" (Euler), "Diatribe du Docteur Akakia, médecin du pape..." (Voltaire). Ces deux écrits sont au nombre de ceux réunis dans ces deux volumes ---- Pour plus de détails au sujet de cette célèbre querelle voir M. Gueroult : "Dynamique et métaphysique leibnitizienne" et plus particulièrement la note "Sur le principe de moindre action chez Maupertuis", pp. 215/235 ---- "Maupertuis clearly was successful in attracting to Berlin scientific luminaries who greatly enhanced the luster of the new Academy. Euler, one of the greatest mathematicians of the day, was already there. Matters were going well, when the celebrated "affaire Koenig" erupted : Samuel Koenig, a protégé of Maupertuis... submitted a dissertation attacking the validity of the principle of least action and then - most strangely for a devoted adherent of Leibnitz - ascribed the discredited law to the latter, citing a letter from Leibnitz to Hermann... The controversy touched off by this work, resulted in perhaps the ugliest of all the famous scientific disputes. Its principal figures were Koenig, Maupertuis, Euler and Voltaire. Maupertuis demanded that the letter be produced. Koenig produced a copy but stated that the original was in the hands of a certain swiss named Henzi... After exhautive search no trace of the letter was found in Henzi's belongings. Maupertuis then demanded that the Academy take action against Koenig... When it became clear that the original could not be found, Euler published, with the approval of the Academy "Exposé concernant l'examen de la lettre de M. De Leibnitz", where, among other things, he declared the letter a fake. The conflict grew critical when, later in the same year, Voltaire published his Diatribe du Docteur Akakia, defending Koenig and making laughingstocks of both Maupertuis and Euler...".

‎Maxwell James C.‎

‎Trattato elementare di elettricità‎

‎ill., br. Iniziato nel 1875, due anni dopo la pubblicazione del più oneroso Treatise, il Trattato elementare di elettricità resta incompiuto, per la prematura scomparsa dell'autore nel 1879. Viene in seguito completato e rivisitato, anche sulla base del Treatise stesso, dall'amico Garnett che lo pubblica infine nel 1881. Con risultati di assoluto rilievo: si tratta di un 'aureo libretto' in tutto e per tutto degno di figurare accanto al prezioso Matter and Motion e al discusso Theory of Heat. Con la sua impostazione intende ridurre al massimo gli oneri matematici presenti nel Treatise, così da avere in cambio la possibilità di meglio focalizzare la fisica sottostante. In questo senso, per esplicito intendimento di Maxwell, l'aggettivo 'elementare' va inteso nel senso preciso proprio degli Elementi euclidei: l'essenza ed il fondamento. Maxwell, sensibile alle letture geometriche della fisica, fu affascinato dagli Elementi di Euclide, ai quali sempre si ispirò. Nell'attesa di pubblicare una seconda e riveduta edizione del Treatise, gli argomenti di questo volume espressero appieno il suo orientamento metodologico. Per la prima volta in traduzione italiana, il Trattato elementare di elettricità è preceduto da quattro scritti sulla vita e il lavoro di James Clerk Maxwell di Adriano Paolo Morando.‎

Everett considers this paper 1868 to be Maxwell's greatest single paper. Maxwell's discoveries laid the foundations of special relativity and quantum mechanics.One of Maxwell's major investigations was on the kinetic theory of gases. Originating with Daniel Bernoulli this theory was advanced by the successive labours of John Herapath John James Waterston James Joule and particularly Rudolf Clausius to such an extent as to put its general accuracy beyond a doubt; but it received enormous development from Maxwell who in this field appeared as an experimenter on the laws of gaseous friction as well as a mathematician.In 1866 he formulated statistically independently of Ludwig Boltzmann the Maxwell-Boltzmann kinetic theory of gases. His formula called the Maxwell distribution gives the fraction of gas molecules moving at a specified velocity at any given temperature. In the kinetic theory temperatures and heat involve only molecular movement. This approach generalized the previously established laws of thermodynamics and explained existing observations and experiments in a better way than had been achieved previously. Maxwell's work on thermodynamics led him to devise the Gedankenexperiment thought experiment that came to be known as Maxwell's demon. </em> unknown‎

‎First appearance of this major paper on electromagnetic dynamics, in which Maxwell improves the groundbreaking equations he had set forth in his famous paper of 1865, the ""A dynamical Theory of Electro-Magnetic Fields"". In the paper offered here, he for the first time proposed to base the electromagnetic theory of light solely on 2 equations. The paper is one of Maxwell's 5 most importent contributions to electromagnetism.""Formulas for the forces between moving charged bodies may indeed de derived from Maxwell's equations, but the action is not along the line joining them and can be reconciled with a dynamical principle only by taking into account the exchange of momentum with the field. Maxwell remarked that the equations might be condensed, but ""to eliminate a quantity which expresses a useful idea would be rather a loss than a gain in this stage of our enquiry."" he had in fact simplified the equations in his fifth major paper, the short, but importent ""Note on the Electromagnetic Theory of Light."" (1868), writing them in an integral form without the function A, based on four postulates derived from electrical experiments. This may be called the electrical formulation of the theory, in contrast with the original dynamical formulation."" (C.W.F. Everitt in DSB).‎
