First offprint in the original wrappers of Einstein's paper on the subject of intermolecular forces. – Edition: In this work Einstein calculated the rate of chemical reactions in a gas by means of observations on the propagation of sound and hence delivered an important contribution to modern acoustics see Mason »Physical Acoustics« p. 13. – Condition: Very fine indeed. – Rarity: According to Weil early offprints of Einstein’s papers may also be qualified as original and also highly collectable editions however they were printed in a certain but still small print run for commercial use mainly to sell them to fellow natural scientists: „No doubt the first appearance in a periodical is the „original edition“ but I have to leave it open for collectors librarians and others to decide whether these offprints in wrappers mostly with a printed title on them especially in the »Sitzungsberichte der Königlich Preussischen Akademie der Wissenschaften« are also „original editions“.

Letterpress on machine paper in original publisher’s brochure on orange stock with black title printing. First offprint in the original wrappers of this important paper by Einstein formulating groundbreaking developments towards a unified field theory. - Content: »On The Unified Field Theory« is one of Einstein's last scientific core works. According to Weil ""This paper represents a new development which was immediate news. A translation by L. L. Whyte appeared in the London Times of Feb. 4 1929. It was quoted in full in ""Observatory"" vol. 52 under the title ""New Field Theory"" pp.82-87 and 1930 pp.11-118."" In 1928 Einstein embarked on a new approach to a unified field theory involving what he called „distant parallelism“. By early 1929 he had solved the main problems involved in writing down field equations for his unified field theory. On the day of offical publication of the third of a formidably technical series of 9 articles on the theory excited headlines appeared in newspapers around the world. - cf. Parkinson Breakthroughs p.279. - Condition State: Mint uncut thus unread. - The list of academy offprints on the rear side of the cover states present offprint not in last place. All offprints listed later were printed in 1929 though. The typeset of all pages is identical to other authentified offprints of this papers. This indicates that our copy is indeed a first offprint but presumably with a later cover. - Reference: Alicke 141; Boni-Russ-L. 183; Norman Collection I 700; Printing and the Mind of Man 416 „Principal Work“; Schilpp-Shields 226; Weil 165.

Letterpress on machine paper in original publisher’s brochure on orange stock with black title printing. First offprint in the original wrappers of Einstein's Celebratory Lecture given at the Prussian Academy on the occasion of the anniversary of King Frederick II it's founder. – Edition: Given in the year when he was awarded the Nobel Prize Einstein in this lecture summarised his views on the geometrization of physics. According to Pais Einstein in present lecture in particular explained why in 1912 he had abandoned Euclidean geometry in favour of Riemannian to proceed successfully with his theory of general relativity. Furthermore Einstein in this lecture presented his view on the place of mathematics in physics. He questioned whether human reasoning even without direct experience could lead to an understanding of the properties of real things merely through thought. Regarding the question of why mathematics should be so well adapted to describing the physical world he concluded 'As far as the laws of mathematics refer to reality they are not certain; and as far as they are certain they do not refer to reality.' – Condition: Mint very probably unread. - Rarity: Very rare. According to Weil early offprints of Einstein’s papers may also be qualified as original and also highly collectable editions however they were printed in a certain but still small print run for commercial use mainly to sell them to fellow natural scientists: „No doubt the first appearance in a periodical is the „original edition“ but I have to leave it open for collectors librarians and others to decide whether these offprints in wrappers mostly with a printed title on them especially in the »Sitzungsberichte der Königlich Preussischen Akademie der Wissenschaften« are also „original editions“.
