"Poisson attended the Ecole Polytechnique, commencing his career on its teaching staff almost immediately upon his graduation. A student and close associate of Laplace he felt it to be his mission to build upon. (Laplace's) scientific legacy. In addition to his professorship at the Polytechnique, he was astronomer to the Bureau des Longitudes and professor of mechanics at the Sorbonne. Elected to the Institute in 1812, he became a prominent member of the Academie. Of great importance as an educator, his prolific writings did much to establish the direction for french science. This work on mechanics is organized on the pattern of the course taught at the Ecole Polytechnique. However, though, it would serve as a textbook, Poisson notes in the advertissement that it was intended as the introduction to his Traité de physique mathématique. At the end of volume II is an addition concerning the use of kinetic energy in calculating the movement of machines". (Roberts Trent p. 258/259) Ben conservato. Lievi fioriture. Timbro di collezione circolare all'occhiello del primo volume, al frontespizio del secondo, pag. 25 del tomo I.
