(8), 83 pp. First appearance of Danish professor in medicine Carl Levy's on the usefulness of Russian baths. Professor, Dr. Med. Carl Edvard Marius Levy (sometimes spelled "Carl Eduard Marius Levy" or in foreign literature "Karl Edouard Marius Levy", September 10, 1808 - December 30, 1865) was professor and head of the Danish Maternity institution inCopenhagen (Fødsels- og Plejestiftelsen).Professor Carl Braun in Vienna said about the Copenhagen hospital, that "because this is the most appropriate and noteworthy newly constructed maternity hospital, in which every step has been taken to halt puerperal fever epidemics, we allow ourselves to estimate that in this new building under Levy's direction no puerperal fever epidemics will occur."Professor Levy was an outspoken critic of Ignaz Semmelweis' ideas, that childbed fever was an iatrogenic disease. Semmelweis theorized that decaying matter on the hands of doctors, who had recently conducted autopsies, was brought into contact with the genitials of birthgiving women during the medical examinations at the maternity clinic. Semmelweis proposed a radical hand washing theory using chlorinated lime, now a known disinfectant, and demonstrated dramatic reductions in mortality rates.

First appearance of this paper in which further thermodynamical connections are published.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. "In December of 1840 he presented a paper to the Royal Society on the production of heat by the electric current. His course of thought led him to the consideration of the relatio between heat and and mechanical work. The results of his investigations were embodied in a series of papers which culminated in his great memoir on the mechanical equivalent of heat, published in 1850. Joule was one of the founders of the principle of the cosservation of energy. Some of his work was done in collaboration with Lord Kelvin."(Source Book in Physics p. 203).
