SAVARY, Jacques. 

Le Parfait Négociant ou instruction générale pour ce qui regarde le commerce. 

Lyon, Jacques Lyons, 1701.
More Details >
150 €

Fifth edition.
A famous merchant born in 1622 in Doué (Anjou) from a noble family, Savary became a wealthy merchant and retired from business at the age of 36. He was chosen by Colbert to be one of the writers of the commercial code of 1673 which was called "Code Savary". He wrote in 1675 the "Perfect trader" which is the compilation of the knowledge he had gathered for the drafting of the ordinance. The legal solutions are clear, sensible, practical, honest. The book is a business bible whose importance Max Weber underlined. This work became a classic, reprinted many times and translated into German, English and Italian.

First collective edition of the works of François Viète.
François Viète, a 16th-century French mathematician born in Fontenay-le-Comte in 1540 and died in Paris in 1603, is often hailed as the father of modern algebra.
Indeed, Viète was one of the first mathematicians in Europe to note the parameters of an equation using symbols. His innovative approach and contribution to algebraic notation was particularly influential and opened new ways for solving mathematical problems. In recognition of his contributions, Viète is widely considered one of the greatest mathematicians of his time and his legacy endures in the field of modern mathematics to this day.
This first collective edition features sixteen of Viète's works, including his seminal 'Isagoge in artem analyticam', which introduced his innovative algebraic notation.

La Mesure des surfaces et des solides, par l'arithmétique des infinis et les centres de gravité. 

Paris, Charles-Antoine Jombert, 1740.

First edition.
Work which is inspired by Wallis' method of measuring surfaces by the arithmetic of infinities which has the advantage according to Deidier of using simple algebra. Deidier found the algebra of integral calculus too abstract. Deidier's works ensured him a distinguished place among the mathematicians of his time.

CHOPART, Louis Narcisse. 

Essais sur les évolutions navales suivis de quelques tables. 

Paris, Imprimerie royale, 1839.

First edition.
Chopart will be Vice-Admiral of the French Navy, he will participate in particular in the Algiers expedition in 1830. His book is in line with the tactics of the 18th century sailing navy, but as a former student from polytechnique he constantly uses geometric tools to demonstrate his movements. Beautiful printing on quality paper for this naval tactics book.

Second edition.
Siméon Denis Poisson (1781-1840), French physicist and mathematician, it is in this Treatise on Mechanics that he introduces the coefficient which bears his name and which is one of the fundamental elements of the theory of elasticity. He demonstrated using molecular theory that this coefficient should have a value equal to 0.25. Value confirmed by measurements since most metals have a Poisson's ratio close to 0.3.

First edition.
Paul Lévy (1886-1971) French mathematician is among the founders of modern probability theory. We also owe him important considerations on the stable stochastic laws which bear his name as well as on martingales. In 1920, he was appointed professor of analysis at the École Polytechnique and on this occasion discovered the discipline that would leave his mark the most: the calculation of probabilities. It can be said that most of the essential concepts of probability theory derive from him.

They were a source of inspiration for the Cosserat brothers as well as for Élie Cartan.
