1892Best.-Nr. 42591London Harrison and Sons 1892. 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" 1891 Vol. 182 - Series A. Pp. 159-229. Clean and fine. First appearance of a classic paper on the mathematics of tidal phenomena. unknown
1888Best.-Nr. 44508London Harrison and Sons 1888. 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" 1887 - Vol. 178 - Series A. Pp. 378-428 and 2 plates. First printing of one of Darwin's major papers on the Nebular Hypoyhesis and the evolution of celestial systems.Following his accession to the Plumian chair Darwin delved even more deeply into the problems of the origin and evolution of the solar system making numerous investigations of the figures of equilibrium of rotating masses of fluid and later making extensive studies of periodic orbits in the restricted problem of three bodies carried out with special reference to cases obtaining for the particular values of the mass ratio of the two finite bodies of 1:10 and 1:1048 the latter approximating the mass ratio of Jupiter to that of the sun. DSB."Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems. That many of his conclusions are now out of date should in no way diminish the historical interest in his experiments nor the importent service thet he rendered cosmogony by the example he gave of putting various hypotheses to the test of actual calculations. Darwin's method remains a milestone in the development of cosmogony and subsequent investigators have favored it over the merely qualitative arguments prevalent until that time."DSB. unknown

First printing of a main work by the "Father of Geophysics" in which he set up the hypothesis that the results from his earlier investigations on the relations between the tidal frictions on the earth and the motion of the moon away from the earth could be used to explain the formation of satellites of the other planets and their movements in relation to the sun. In DSB it is called "a monumental paper"."Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems.

First printing of a main paper by the "Father of Geophysics" in which he shows that the effect of the tides was to force a retreat of the moon from the earth - thus going backward in time in the history of the earth he concludes that the earth had been in contact with the moon and this represents the time at which the whirling earth threw off a portion of its outer crust by centrifugal action loosing angular motion in that way."Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems.
