Though he was unable to attend university due to his health, in this letter Solvay displays his academic prowess as a chemist and inventor. He writes to the journal "Revue générale des sciences pures et appliquées" to discuss an article which he has already published, "Physico-chimie et Biologie", and to offer another: "Je vous présente aujourd'hui un second article intitulé: 'Physico-chimie et Psychologie'". A further third article is mentioned as a possibility, one which coincides with the work of another scientist published in the Revue ("Certaines vues, exposées par M. Pierre Girard dans son article du 30 août : L'Électrisation de contact en Biologie coïncident avec les miennes").
Faint creasing; an 'R' is marked near the letterhead in blue crayon.
