8vo. viii, 373; viii, 267; ix, 402 pp. Articles, figs., photos, index. Green cloth, gilt & black spines. Ownership rubber stamps of contributing author Norman Horowitz, California Institute of Technology. FINE. FIRST EDITION. Articles include: "The bearing of the New Systematics on Genetical Problems. The Nature of Species." Ern…st Mayr; "Genetic Effects of Radiation." D. G. Catcheside. Milislav Demerec was a Croatian-American geneticist, and the director of the Department of Genetics, Carnegie Institution of Washington [CIW], now Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory from 1941 to 1960, recruiting Barbara McClintock and Alfred Hershey. Demerec was born and raised in Kostajnica. "In the 1940s the direction of Demerec's research changed to the genetics of bacteria and their viruses after a symposium given by Max Delbrück. During World War II he used his knowledge of bacterial genetics to increase the yield from the Penicillium. Following the war he continued to work on bacterial genetics and the problem of antibiotic resistance in E. coli, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus. In 1946 he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences, and in 1947 became the founding editor of Advances in Genetics, the first journal to review the finding of modern genetics. In the 1950s he served on the genetics panel of the National Academy of Sciences' Committee on the Biological Effects of Atomic Radiation. In 1952 he was elected to the American Philosophical Society." EXTRA POSTAGE WILL APPLY.

8vo. 215-228 pp. Figs. Self-wraps. Ownership rubber stamp of Norman Horowitz. FINE. Demerec played a vital role in the development of genetics. In his early career he showed that a gene is a unit structure, and "that genes play a very important role in individual cells of higher organisms." McGraw-Hill, p. 135. Importantly, "Dem…erec proved for the first time that genetic mechanisms were responsible for bacterial resistance to antibiotics, and his research revealed two important principles to be followed in antibiotics therapy. the initial doses of these drugs should be large enough to prevent the occurrence of 'second step' (highly) resistant bacterial mutants; and the drugs should be used in combination rather than singly." McGraw-Hill, p. 136. Many of the papers bear the rubber stamp of pioneer Caltech geneticist Norman Horowitz. WITH: DEMEREC. "Reaction of Genes of Escherichia Coli to Certain Mutagens." Offprint from: Symposia of the Society for Experimental Biology, no. VII, 1953. 8vo. 43-54 pp. Self-wraps. Full list available on request. McGraw-Hill, McGraw-Hill Modern Men of Science, vol. 1, pp. 135-136.

Condizione: Very Good. xi, 314 pp; text figures. Original cloth. Corners of covers bent. Very Good. This copy does NOT have any library markings. First Edition. Milislav Demerec was the organizer and wrote the "Foreword" (see photo). You can see all the contributors in the photo of the Contents page. Contributions by future Nobe…l laureates Max Delbrück, Alfred Hershey, Joshua Lederberg, Edward Tatum, Salvador Luria, André Lwoff. Other contributors include Oswald Avery, Milislav Demerec, Carl and Gertrude Lindegren, Guido Pontecorvo, Tracy Sonneborn, Sol Spiegelman. Quoting Jan Witkowski on the Cold Spring Harbor website: "The 1946 Symposium was the first to be held following a three-year hiatus while the Second World War raged. During that time, Laboratory scientists had worked on war-related projects, most notably Demerec who, with Alexander Hollander, produced a Pencillium mutant that made twice as much penicillin as the standard strain. Participants in the Heredity and Variation in Microorganisms Symposium must have arrived at Cold Spring Harbor in the June of 1946 with the feeling that things were, perhaps, getting back to normal. Demerec must also have looked forward to the income from the sale of the Symposia volumes. Sales of $3344 in 1943 had fallen to $919 in 1945; with the 1946 volume, sales rebounded to $2789. This Symposium marked the beginning of a series of meetings on genetics that reached its climax in the 1966 Symposium on the Genetic Code. The presentations at the 1946, 1947, 1951, 1953, 1956, 1958, 1961, 1963 and 1966 Symposia provide a record of the emergence of two new fields of scientific enquiry--molecular biology and molecular genetics. "Demerec persisted with the two changes he had made in the 1942 Symposium--to publish the papers in alphabetical order and to limit the publication of the discussions. The latter was especially unfortunate because we are deprived of how the participants reacted to Maclyn McCarty's presentation on bacterial transformation. On the other hand, two presentations on cytoplasmic hereditary factors--by Tracey Sonneborn on Paramecium and the Lindegrens on yeast--evoked several pages of discussion. As seemed to happen rather often during this period, the most significant presentation was added to the meeting at the last moment. While Louis Dienes presented evidence for bacterial sexual reproduction based on rather dubious morphological evidence, Joshua Lederberg and Ed Tatum presented their convincing data on recombination in bacteria carrying four or five selectable markers. This discovery, following Hershey's demonstration the previous year of recombination in phage, marked the beginnings of bacterial genetics that, together with phage genetics, was to dominate the world of genetics." NOTE ABOUT TWO FORMER OWNERS (see photo of front pastedown and front flyleaf): I do not know yet who "Gersh" was. The "Elie Metchnikoff Memorial Library" was the collection of Debra Jan Bibel.

Hardcover. Condizione: Good. xii, 279 pp; text figures (including a portrait of John Mason Gulland after p. vi; see photos). Original cloth. Spine sunned. Rear cover lightly stained (see photo). Corners of covers bent. Upper corners of pp. 31-43 creased. Good. This copy does NOT have any library markings. First Edition. COPY OF…SALVADOR LURIA (with his signature "S. E. Luria 1948" on front flyleaf; see photos). Luria attended the Symposium in June 1947, but did not make a presentation. Milislav Demerec was the organizer and wrote the "Foreword" (see photo). Quoting Jan Witkowski on the Cold Spring Harbor website: "Demerec chose this topic to complement the IXth and XIth Symposia. That nucleic acids and nucleoproteins might be constituents of genes had been known since 1923, when Feulgen used his staining technique for DNA to show that they were components of chromosomes. The next development--the nucleoprotein theory of the gene--arose in the 1930s when Caspersson showed, using ultraviolet microscopy, that the amount of DNA increased markedly during meiosis, a time when the chromosomes were believed to duplicate. However, in 1947, it was still generally thought that proteins were more likely to be the carriers of heredity information, despite Avery's work on transformation published in 1945. Some did follow Avery, and André Boivin's paper on 'directed mutation' is remarkable, concluding: 'Thus, this amazing fact. . . is reduced in the last analysis (his emphasis) to innumerable modifications within the molecular structure of one single fundamental chemical substance, nucleic acid. . . .' However, the general consensus, as expressed forcefully by Mirsky, was that Boivin's assertions went going beyond the experimental facts. Not surprisingly, Chargaff, who changed his research program in response to Avery's results was more appreciative, writing that 'The epochal experiments of Avery and his associates. . . have emphasized the very important role played by some bacterial nucleic acids. . . .' He presented his methods for the isolation of high molecular weight DNA. "The volume opens with a tribute to John Masson Gulland, the English nucleic acid chemist who had been killed in a train crash on 26 October, just four months after he had participated in the Symposium. . . . The work discussed in this paper--Gulland's evidence from electrometric titrations of DNA that the bases were joined by hydrogen bonds--played an important part in substantiating the double helix. As Watson put it [in The Double Helix], ". . . a recent rereading of J. M. Gulland's and D. O. Jordan's papers . . . made me finally appreciate the strength of their conclusion that a large fraction, if not all, of the bases formed hydrogen bonds to other bases". ABOUT JOHN MASSON GULLAND: Witkowski cites this paper about Gulland: Keith L. Manchester, "Did a tragic accident delay the discovery of the double helical structure of DNA?" Trends Biochem. Sci., Vol. 20, 1995, pp. 126-128. There is also a detailed Wikipedia article about Gulland.

Condizione: Very Good. x, 315 pp; text figures. Original cloth. Spine sunned. Corners of covers a little bent. Very Good. This copy does NOT have any library markings. First Edition. COPY OF SALVADOR LURIA, with his printed last name "LURIA" on front flyleaf (in pencil; see photo). Luria attended the symposium in 1941, but did n…ot make a presentation. However he did participate in the discussions, which were recorded, edited and included in this volume--see pp. 37, 111, 166, 192, 193 for Luria's contributions to the discussions. His longest contribution is on p. 166 (see photos). Luria had met Max Delbrück in December 1940 and they began their collaboration during the summer 1941 at Cold Spring Harbor. In his autobiography "A Slot Machine, a Broken Test Tube", Luria describes the summer 1941 working at Cold Spring Harbor with Delbrück (pp. 34-35; I have included photos of those two pages and can email the text in a Word file, upon request). Milislav Demerec was the organizer and wrote the "Foreword" (see photos). Quoting Jan Witkowski on the Cold Spring Harbor website: "Just as Eric Ponder had chosen his own field of research for the topic of his last Symposium, so Demerec did the same for his first Symposium. But although the title of the 1941 Symposium suggests that Demerec had broken with the biophysical emphasis of the earlier Symposia, the studies reported in this meeting relied heavily on biophysical approaches and techniques. It was only with the 1946 Symposium on "Heredity and Variation in Microorganisms" that genetics became the theme that was to dominate the Symposia for the next two decades. Demerec came to the Carnegie Institution's Department of Genetics at Cold Spring Harbor in 1923 to work on unstable loci in Drosophila, and later on he used X-rays to induce mutations. He justified his choice of the Symposium topic on the grounds that mathematics, chemistry and physics all played an important role in the studies of genes and chromosomes--mathematics is used by geneticists to analyse their data; chemical analysis is used to determine the constituents of genes and chromosomes; and physical techniques were being used to examine the structure of chromosomes. There are several intriguing facts associated with this Symposium. It was Barbara McClintock's first visit to Cold Spring Harbor and she described the breakage-fusion-bridge cycle in maize chromosomes; she would join the Department of Genetics in 1942. Salvador Luria and Max Delbruck were there, and they stayed for summer to work together for the first time--this led, after the war, to the Phage Course and to the Laboratory becoming the headquarters of the Phage Group. "H. J. Muller's declaration in his summing-up--"The time has come when a few . . . of the physicists and biochemists realize that genes and chromosomes do form valid subjects of inquiry, and that what the biologists have been saying about their mysterious properties calls for some more looking into on their part"--would be fulfilled many times over in the post-war years. One of Demerec's first changes to the Symposium format was to have it last only two weeks instead of the customary five! This may have contributed to the increased number of participants to 120--about double the usual number. Demerec remarked in the Annual Report that the Symposium volume was selling well and had been adopted by some as an advanced textbook.". Signed by Author(s).
