Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very Good; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science, Inc. The scarce February,1950 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, that being Volume VI, Number 2. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover since 1947, two year…s after the publication's inception - here shows the time to be three minutes of midnight as of February1950. That's about as close as it ever got, and one can see from the article titles (see scan of contents) that these always-good-citizen scientists - the first group to publish against Nuclear weapons in a scholarly manner - were extremely skittish in early '50. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 32 pp. (pages33 through 64 for the annual volume, pages then being numbered after that fashion of the time). Very Good, with modest cover fade at perimeter and light crease, early owner's small signature at top right corner. See scan. Minor rear cover soil traces. Very modest, almost unnoticeable age-toning to interior pages is less than would ordinarily be expected. See all scans. Solidly bound. A stout example. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change,[2] and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone.This early in the bulletin's history, full-size illustrations were rare; here, only the ads on the inside covers are full page. But where else would you see an ad declaring 'The Fume Hood of the Future.is Yours Today'? That's in case you have you have issues handling your radioactive isotopes. See scan of that ad. Feature articles in this vintage1950 issue: Breeder and Homogeneous Reactor; Diary of Dr. Davis; UN General Assembly Debate; Soviet Quotas Position; much more. See scan of contents. Contributors include L.A. DuBridge; Lawrence R. Hafstead; Michael Polanyi; Francis W. Carpenter; Leo Szilard; Clifford Grobstein; R.E. Peierls; the editors and others. Very, very scarce piece of activist history at the beginning of a tense era. The original monthly softcover issue, and in stout condition. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box, of course - not a bag. LPR59.
