139-1783 Perrin,J.B.
Les atomes. Paris, Félix Alcan 1913. XVI, 295, (1) S. Mit 13 Figuren. Weinroter Hldr. der Zeit mit goldgepr. Rückentitel (OU eingebunden). (Best.).
(Nouvelle Collection Scientifique). - DSB X, 525. Nye, Molecular Reality S. 157 ff. - Erste Ausgabe, selten. - "Perrin most fondamental conclusion that he had finally uncovered irrefutable proof for the real existence of atoms - contrary to the assertions and expectations of Ostwald, Mach and others - was soon universally accepted and popularized in his book 'Les atomes' (1913). He received the Nobel Prize in 1926" (DSB). - "The publication of this book loomed as a MILESTONE in Perrin's own career, as well as in the history of the physical sciences. It marked the alliance of a plethora of superficially unrelated phenomena, as well as the incorporation of the common denominator among them into the normal working assumptions of physics and chemistry. First published in 1913, the book was in its fourth edition in 1914 already and was translated into English, German, Polish, Russian, Serbian and Japanese. The response to the publication was an almost unanimous crescendo of applause" (W. Alicke, Catalogue 269, 475).
