Traité de mécanique céleste

Tisserand, F. (François), 1845-1896 · 1889 · Paris, Gauthier-Villars et fils · 4 pictures

A French treatise on celestial mechanics by astronomer François Tisserand, published in Paris by Gauthier-Villars et fils in 1889 for mathematicians and working astronomers studying perturbation and lunar theory. The plates here are letterpress mathematics rather than scenes: displayed differential equations, bracketed systems, numbered formulas and fragments of French text, useful as period type specimens or typographic texture.
