 Instructions pratiques sur l'observation et la mesure des propriétés optiques appelées rotatoires by Jean-Baptiste Biot

Original practical work on optical rotatory properties and applications. The Académie publication inventory verifies its presentation in Comptes rendus 21 (1845), pp. 97–98: www.academie-sciences.fr/pdf/dossiers/Biot/Biot_pubd6.htm . The academy notice, rather than an inaccessible page of the full book, supports the present biographical citation.
