Spine-ends on nearly all volumes strenghtened. Stamp on title-pages. Each volume around 650 pp. With 508 fine engraved plates. Second edition and the first 4to-edition was published in 19 volumes plus an additional volume by Jean Elie Bertrand where vol. 20 is an additional volume published much later 1799 - not present here - dealing with the art of printing. This importent collection of books on crafts was published by between 1761 and 1788. The full series comprises 113 parts cahiers in 27 folio volumes along with three supplements and "provide detailed accounts of a wide range of handcraft and manufacturing processes carried out in France at that time. The volumes are well-illustrated with precise engravings by Jean Elie Bertrand 1737-1779 a noted typographer from Neuchâtel where the printing was done. Many of them provide the background for shorter articles in Diderot's Encyclopedia which was appearing at much the same time. The project had its origin in request from Colbert in 1675 to the Academy Royal des Sciences for detailed accounts of various mechanic arts to be prepared and for new machines to be reported upon. This led to the formation of the Bignon Commission under Abbé Bignon. René-Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur 1683-1757 became editor soon after he joined the Academy. He inherited number of drawings the earliest prepared in 1693 and an illustrated manuscript on printing type and book binding which had been prepared in 1704. It was left to Réaumur's successor Duhamel du Monceau to bring about the publication of the series probably as the result of the competition from the Encyclopedia."

Ownership Signature Of Walter B. Goad 1925 - 2000 Who Was A Nuclear Physicist At The Los Alamos National Laboratory. During The 1960S Goad Turned His Attention From Physics To Biology And He Is Best Known For His Contributions To The Founding Of Genbank The Most Widely Used Repository For Dna Sequence Data. At Duke University In 1947 He Began To Work On A Phd In Cosmic Ray Physics Under The Supervision Of Lothar Nordheim. In 1950 Nordheim Was Invited To Come To Los Alamos To Contribute To Ongoing Work On The Hydrogen Bomb. As Nordheim's Student Goad Accompanied Him. Although Goad Was Ostensibly At Los Alamos To Finish His Thesis On Cosmic Rays He Soon Became Involved In The Hydrogen Bomb Work Making Some Important Contributions. After The Successful Test Of The Hydrogen Bomb In 1952 Goad Returned To His Thesis Work Obtaining His Phd In 1953. In The 1950S Goad Continued To Work On Problems Related To Nuclear Physics And Nuclear Weapons; He Would Remain At Los Alamos For The Rest Of His Career. In The 1960S Goad Developed An Increasing Interest In Problems In Biology Especially In The Field Of Molecular Biology. To Develop His Interest In 1964-65 Goad Spent A Sabbatical Year At The University Of Colorado Medical Center In Denver. There He Began To Work On Some Problems In Biology Especially In Collaboration With The Physical Chemist John Cann. By The Early 1970S Goad Was Spending Almost All Of His Time Working On Biological Rather Than Physics Problems. In 1974 Goad Became A Key Member Of The Newly Established T-10 Division Theoretical Biology And Biophysics At Los Alamos. During The 1970S The T-10 Group Became Especially Interested In Protein And Nucleotide Sequences. A Significant Quantity Of Such Sequences Were Only Just Beginning To Become Available At This Time. Goad Assembled A Group Of Young Physicists - Including Temple Smith Myron Stein Mike Waterman William Beyer And Minoru Kanehisa - To Work On Mathematical Problems Involved With Sequence Comparison And Analysis. As Part Of This Effort In 1979 Goad Established The Los Alamos Sequence Database To Collect Nucleotide Sequences That Could Be Used For Analysis. The Los Alamos Sequence Database Was Intended To Be A Pilot Project. Goad Solicited The National Institutes Of Health For Funds To Set Up A Larger And More Permanent Sequence Database. In 1981 The National Institutes Of Health Issued A Competitive Request For Proposals To Establish Such A Data Bank. In 1982 A 5-Year $2 Million Contract To Establish And Operate The Genbank Database Was Awarded To Goad And His Co-Workers At Los Alamos Working Jointly With Bolt Beranek And Newman. Goad's Team At Los Alamos Ran Genbank Between 1982 And 1987. Wikipedia Princeton University Press paperback
