Descripción

Collation for entire part II: 3 leaves, errata slip, pp. [91]-336, 2 leaves, plates V-XVIII. Original wrappers. Marginal browning along top and bottom margins of the two plates for the paper by Wheatstone, plates XVII and XVIII (see photos), else Very Good. Entire Part II offered in its original state. CONDITION NOTE: I have another copy that has more browning on the two plates so it has a lower price but is otherwise comparable. First Edition. "In 1843 Wheatstone published an experimental verification of Ohm's Law, helping to make the law (already well known in Germany) more familiar in England. In connection with the verification he developed new ways of measuring resistances and currents. In particular, he invented the rheostat and popularized the Wheatstone bridge" (D.S.B. 14: 290).
