8vo. 82 pp. Original grayish-brown printed wrappers; soiled, rear cover chipped and spotted. Ownership rubberstamp of J.F. McClendon. Good+. Scarce. "The chief interest in the metabolism of aluminium arises from its use as a constituent of food. The controversy between those who believe that aluminium compounds added to foods are harmful and those who take the opposite view has never been settled. The present investigation, begun in 1922, was undertaken with the conviction that the methods then published for the estimation of aluminium were so crude and inaccurate that the conclusions drawn are open to serious criticism. Accordingly, a delicate and accurate method has been devised and by its use new facts on this problem have been established. Two books have recently appeared which review the present status of the aluminium problem. E. E. Smith, devoting himself especially to aluminium as a native or added constituent of foods, summarizes investigations bearing on this subject. Stoklasa, after forty years of work on the distribution of aluminium in nature, publishes his results. No attempt is made here to review in detail this mass of material. The reader is referred to these two books for a more comprehensive survey." / "The present status of the problem may be summarized as follows: Aluminium occurs widely distributed in plants. In general hydrophytes contain more than mesophytes or xerophytes. The roots act as reservoirs for the aluminium which is required in the economy of the plant. Seeds and blossoms also contain aluminium. In the former it is supposed to be in some way related to germination; in the latter to color". â" Author(s). / Frank Pell Underhill and Florence Irene Peterman were from the Dept. of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Yale University. PROVENANCE: J.F. (Jesse Francis) McClendon (1880-1976) was an American chemist, zoologist, and physiologist known for the first pH measurement of human stomach in situ. From 1910 to 1939, McClendon worked at the Physiological Laboratory of the University of Minnesota Medical School, Minneapolis, serving as professor of Physiological Chemistry between 1920 and 1939.

Le Grand was a French Recollect and Cartesian philosopher. Born in Douai, Spanish Netherlands, he was attached at an early age to the English community of St. Bonaventure's convent there, and became a Franciscan Recollect friar, and taught philosophy and divinity. Sent on the English mission, he resided for many years in Oxfordshire, and in 1695 he was tutor in the family of Henry Fermor of Tusmore. His advocacy of Cartesianism met with strong resistance from Samuel Parker, who would become bishop of Oxford.[1] Towards the close of his life he engaged in sharp controversies on metaphysical topics with John Sergeant, a secular priest. At the twenty-third chapter of his order, assembled in London on 9 July 1693, he was elected provincial, and he held that office till his death on 9 August 1699. He lived a studious and retired life. He is noted for the effort he made to render the approach of Descartes more apparently scholastic, to improve its reception with traditionalists. (see Wiki).

Like the family album, this book will, I hope, be superficially more funny than tragic, for so odd a system of education does not demand a pompous memorial.' (Quote taken from the Editor's Preface) ***First impression of the true first edition of this pre-war Graham Greene. The first book edited by Greene, of which 1,517 copies were printed (Wobbe A7) and uncommon. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 208, xx, [1] ; illustrated, 4 in color ; 21 cm. ; John Horace McFarland (1859-1948) was an American master printer and horticulturist. Throughout his career, he advocated for civic beautification, and he became a leader in the conservation movement of the early twentieth century. His wide-ranging achievements made a lasting impact on printing processes, horticulture, and environmental protection. During McFarland's early years, his father operated a nursery and a small weekly newspaper in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. McFarland worked in both of his father's businesses as a youth. These early experiences instilled the passion for horticultural beauty and the business expertise that distinguished him personally and professionally. He eventually purchased his father's press. Combining the skills learned from these early experiences, he established a successful printing company of his own. He founded the J. Horace McFarland Company/Mount Pleasant Press, specializing in seed catalogs and nursery trade publications. Over the course of his lifetime, McFarland wrote and lectured extensively on horticulture, printing methods, and civic improvement. McFarland was a prominent member of the American Rose Society.
