Recherches sur le pouvoir inducteur spécifique et la conductibilité des Corps cristallisés.

Paris, G. Masson, 1889. Contemp. hcalf. Gilt spine. Light wear along edges. In: "Annales de Chimie et de Physique", 6ieme Series - Tome 17. 512 pp. (Entire volume offered).

Firs printing of Jacques Curie's (the brother of Pierre Curie) doctorial dissertation dealing with the phenomena of Piezoelectricity in crystals which the two brothers had discovered in 1880.
