London: Jonathan Cape, 1959. First edition. Fine/Very Good. First state binding, with the extra detail on the skull. A Fine copy in Very Good dust jacket. Publisher's black cloth effect paper over boards, front cover with a blind-stamped skull and gilt coins in the eye sockets, spine lettered in gilt, plain endpapers. First state dust jacket designed by Richard Chopping. First state dust jacket with wear to crown, spotting to fold of front panel, and staining to back panel. The seventh novel in Ian Fleming's James Bond series, first published in the United Kingdom by Jonathan Cape on March 23, 1959. Goldfinger originally bore the title The Richest Man in the World and was written in January and February of 1958. The story centers on the investigation by MI6 operative James Bond into the gold smuggling activities of Auric Goldfinger, who is also suspected by MI6 of being connected to SMERSH, the Soviet counter-intelligence organization. As well as establishing the background to the smuggling operation, Bond uncovers a much larger plot, with Goldfinger planning to steal the gold reserves of the United States from Fort Knox. Goldfinger was the third Bond novel adapted for the screen, premiering in 1964. Fine in Very Good dust jacket.

Description
Harleem: Société chimique néerlandaise, 1925. First Edition. Offprint, 8vo (236 × 157mm), pp. 3, plus 4 inserted plates. From the Physico-chemical Institute of the Charles University, Prague. Original green printed wrappers, staple-bound, light toning and a couple of small spots to the rear wrapper, else near fine. Signed by Heyrovský on the front wrapper. Heyrovský received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1959 for his discovery and development of polarography, the electroanalytical method he had introduced at Charles University in Prague in the early 1920s. Polarography rests on the behavior of the dropping mercury electrode: as mercury falls in regular drops from a fine capillary into an electrolyte solution, the resulting current-voltage relationship traces a characteristic stepped curve whose half-wave potential identifies the electroactive species present and whose limiting current measures its concentration. The method was the first to permit simultaneous qualitative and quantitative analysis of multiple substances in solution at trace concentrations. The electrochemical sensing principle it established (measuring concentration from a limiting current at a known electrode potential) is the direct ancestor of the amperometric biosensor, and by extension of the enzyme electrode used in the home blood glucose meter, now one of the most widely deployed diagnostic devices in the world. The offprint offered here is the paper in which Heyrovský and Shikata introduced the polarograph, the automated instrument that made the method practically viable and whose construction is here described and named for the first time.
