Condition: Very Good. Jenkin, Henry Charles Fleeming (1833-85). A.L.s. (carbon copy) to Charles Tilston Bright. [London], January 9, 1862. 2pp. 254 x 202 mm. Small holes punched in left margin, traces of mounting present. Provenance: Latimer Clark. Jenkin, a British engineer, served as secretary of the British Association's Electric Standards Committee (formed in 1861), which was responsible for setting and naming the standard units of electrical quantity and resistance. His correspondent, Charles Bright, was co-author with Latimer Clark of "On the formation of standards of electrical quantity and resistance" (1861), which led directly to the formation of the committee. Jenkin here informs Bright that "the Committee of the British Association on Standards of Electrical Resistance are anxious to have the benefit of your valuable advice and propose from time to time to take the liberty of consulting you. "What the National Standard should be and of what metal it should be made are questions which will be brought before you at a later date when the Committee are able to acquaint you with the results of experiments now in progress. Meanwhile, the Committe would be glad tolearn what formof Standar Resistance you could reoommend. The committee wish to compare coils of copper wire wound in various ways, in order to determine the merits of each plan and would be happy to send you a length of copper wire to be wound under your care if you feel disposed to to the trouble and expense of preparing a coil. The Committe are anxious to obtain a coil which shall combine good insulation, convenience of form and permanence of electrical conditions, with the property of rapidity [?], assuming the temperature of the surrounding medium. Copper has been chosen because it is a metal which will bring out clear the possible defects of any of the prosed forms. . . ." Origins of Cyberspace 166. .

First Edition
1st Edition. FIRST EDITION, FULL VOLUME 152, PART II OF THE 1862 PHILOSOPHICAL TRANSACTIONS COMPLETE WITH A NUMBER OF NOTABLE PAPERS. Handsomely illustrated with 48 plates. Fleeming Jenkin was a professor of engineering at Edinburgh as well as an imaginative electrician and cable engineer of note. Present here is Jenkin's important paper on the electrical theory of submarine cables in undersea telecommunications. In it, Jenkin makes "a determination. of the specific inductive capacity of gutta-percha. This was the very first true measurement of the specific inductive capacity of a dielectric which had been made after the discovery by Faraday of the existence of the property, and his primitive measurement of it. At the time when Jenkin made his measurements the existence of specific inductive capacity was either unknown, or ignored, or denied, by almost all the scientific authorities of the day" (Memoir of Fleeming Jenkin). Note that Part II of this paper appeared in a different volume and we offer it separately. Also included: Joule on the heating effects of fluids in motion and the results of experiments "on the difference between the temperatures of an elastic fluid on the high-and-low pressure sides of a porous plug through which it was transmitted. Joule is well known for his discovery of Joule's Law, the connection between heat and mechanical work, where heat is a form of energy. "From Joule's extensive and reliable data [presented in this paper] Thomson derived an empirical law [stating] that the cooling effect per unit pressure difference varie[s] as the inverse square of the absolute temperature" (Carwell, 202). Also included: a paper by Stokes investigating the spark spectra of metals, spectra of the electric arc, form and effects of the electrodes; Cayley on analytical geometry; Hopkins mathematical theory of the motions of glaciers; Robinson on the spectrum of the electric light given by a compound body is not the superposed spectra of its elements. The full table of contents: Joule & Thomson "On the thermal effects of fluids in motion.ā?? Part IV" W. Fairbairn "On the law of expansion of superheated steam" G. G. Stokes "On the long spectrum of electric light" Balfour Stewart "On the nature of the forces concerned in producing the greater magnetic disturbances" Arthur Cayley "On the analytical theory of the conic" Robert Mallet, "Appendix to the account of the earthquake-wave experiments made at Holyhead" William Hopkins "On the theory of the motion of glaciers" J. S. Bowerbank "On the anatomy and physiology of the Spongiadoe.ā??Part II C. Brodie "On the oxidation and disoxidation effected by the alkaline peroxides" W. A. Miller "On the photographic transparency of various bodies, and on the photographic effects of metallic and other spectra obtained by means of the electric spark" Lionel S. Beale "Further observations on the distribution of nerves to the elementary fibres of striped muscle" J. Lockart Clarke "Researches on the development of the spinal cord in man, mammalia, and birds" T. R. Robinson "On spectra of electric of light, as modified by the nature of the electrodes and the media of discharge" Fleeming Jenkin "Experimental researches on the transmission of electric signals through submarine cables. Part I. Laws of transmission through various lengths of one cable" Charles Lyell "The lignites and clays of Bovey Tracey, Devonshire" Oswald Here "On the fossil flora of Bovey Tracey" J. S. Bowerbank "On the anatomy and physiology of the spongiadę.ā??Part III. On the generic characters, the specific characters, and on the method of examination" CONDITION & DETAILS: Complete Volume 152, Part II. Small ex-libris stamp on title page. Quarto. (11 x 9 inches). [10], pp. 579-1142, [48 plates]. Handsomely and solidly rebound in aged calf. 5 raised bands at the spine, each gilt-ruled; gilt-tooled fleur de lis at the spine. Red and black, gilt-lettered labels.

Condition: Very Good. Jenkin, Henry Charles Fleeming (1833-85). A.L.s. to Latimer Clark. St. Adelphi, January[?] 23, 1866. 2pp. 204 x 127 mm. Holes punched in upper margin. Provenance: Latimer Clark. Jenkin, a British engineer, served as secretary of the British Association's Electric Standards Committee (formed in 1861), which was responsible for setting and naming the standard units of electrical quantity and resistance. Between 1858 and 1872 Jenkin worked in the design and manufacture of submarine cables, performing the first accurate measurements of the specific inductive capacity of gutta-percha (used in submarine cable insulation) in 1862. His letter requests information on the comparative qualities of two different types of submarine cable: "Can you give me the exact gain which you derived in the Persian Gulf cable in the use of the segmented wire, i.e. what the discharge was with the common strand and 225 [illeg.] 275 S.P. and what the discharge with the segmented wire same weights? If not with those exact weights can you give me the exact ratio of the discharges in any two cases where the same weights of materials were used-of the exact weights of materials required to produce the same discharge?"

First Edition
First edition of this important paper (pp. 151-185), in which Jenkin (1833-1885) "analysed fully the determination of market price using diagrams to present the supply and demand functions in the form of intersecting curves. Jenkin specifically noted that in the long run cost of production chiefly determines the price of manufactured goods, but stressed 'how much the value of all things depends on simple mental phenomena, and not on laws having mere quantity of materials for their subject'" (The New Palgrave II, 1007). Fisher, p. 180; Mattioli 2972. Octavo. Original publisher's cloth, front board with black rule border, spine gilt, coated endpapers. Gift inscription to half-title, ownership inscription in pencil to title, modern bookplate to front pastedown. Spine ends and corners lightly rubbed, short closed tear to one leaf professionally repaired; a very good copy.
