Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the early development of spectroscopy, a field that revolutionized our understanding of light and matter. The author, a pioneer in the field, meticulously describes his groundbreaking experiments, which led to the discovery of the dark lines in the solar spectrum ââ â now known as Fraunhofer lines. These lines, invisible to the naked eye, revealed the unique spectral "fingerprint" of sunlight, paving the way for later advancements in astronomy and physics. The book delves into the author's innovative techniques, including the use of prisms and gratings to analyze light, and his systematic measurements of the refractive and dispersive properties of different materials. He meticulously documents his findings, offering valuable insights into the behavior of light under various conditions. The author's observations extend beyond the sun, encompassing the spectra of stars and even the intriguing spectral characteristics of electric light. His meticulous research and clear explanations offer a window into the nascent field of spectroscopy, capturing the excitement and wonder of a scientific revolution in progress. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Hardback. Condición: New. Utilizing contemporary accounts of India, China, Siam and the Levant, this study provides rich detail about these exotic lands and explores the priorities that shaped and motivated these bold envoys and chroniclers. Ames and Love offer a fascinating look at the symbiotic nature of cross-cultural interaction between France and the major trading regions of the Indian Ocean basin during the 17th century. During this period of intense French interest in the rich trade and cultures of the region, Louis XIV and his minister Jean-Baptiste Colbert in particular were concerned with encouraging French travelers, both clerical and lay, to explore and document these lands. Among the accounts included here are those of François Bernier, Jean-Baptiste Tavernier, and François Pyrard.Because these accounts reflect as much about the structures and priorities of France as they do about the cultures they describe, Ames and Love hope their analysis bridges the gap between studies on early modern France and those on the major Asiatic countries of the same period. Their findings challenge the current thinking in the study of early modern France by demonstrating that overseas expansion to Asia was of considerable importance and interest to all segments of French society. Specialists in traditional internal French history will find much in this study of European expansion to complement and supplement their research.
