very rare thesis of this famous Dutch scientist

An attractively bound copy of the very rare thesis of this famous Dutch scientist. "De Vries's experimental work in the 1890's led to the rediscovery of Mendel's laws and the discovery of the phenomenon of mutation" (DSB, XIV p. 96). See also De Veer, Leven en werk van Hugo de Vries p. 12 'Dit proefschrift is waarschijnlijk de basis geweest voor het werk van de komende achttien jaar'. The other two works are first editions.
