The Central concern of this book is the possibility that twentieth-century man may eliminate himself from the face of the earth. If he should stop short of this conclusive dead…end, he may nevertheless go far enough, in his pride and in his folly, to destroy the social structures to which we commonly give the name of civilization. Thus the distinguished scientist-stateman who is the author of this book begins an examination of the dangers we are now facing and what we must do if we are to achieve better ends of our own choice. 221 pp. Plastic protective covering.

Aggiungi al carrelloSoft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Near Fine; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science, Inc. The scarce January,1950 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, that being Volume VI, Number 1. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover since 1947, two years… after the publication's inception - here shows the time to be three minutes of midnight as of mid-1950. 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. (pages1 through 32 for the annual volume, pages then being numbered after that fashion of the time). Near Fine, with no salient flaws at all. Orange cover - using a golden-age-of-sci-fi style of font in the case of this particular issue - is vivid, and very modest age-toning to interior pages is less than would ordinarily be expected. See all scans. Solidly bound and bright. 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: The City of Washington and an Atomic Bomb Attack; Conquest of the United States by Germany; AEC Reactor Program; The Perils of Being Important; Role of the National Laboratories; International Control of Atomic Energy; Atomic Armistice; more. See scan of contents. Contributors include Sir Robert Watson-Watt; Hans J. Morgenthau; Samuel K. Allison; Henry D. Smyth; Leo Szilard; David F. Cavers; Cuthbert Daniel and John L. Balderston; Francis W. Carpenter; 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 superior condition. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box, of course - not a bag. LPR34.

First edition, published in 1952 by Oldham's Press of London. Printed in Great Britain. The red clothbound boards show general signs of age, though there is no evidence of fadin…g to the spine.

A good copy of a fascinating account of the development of radar by the leading figure in the development of RADAR, the invention which is given much credit for winning the Battle of Britain and the Second World War as a whole.

Taylor (1965); Consolidated Index, compiled by Richard Raper (1991). Near fine navy blue cloth hardbacks with gilt/silvered titles and decoration to spines. A particularly attractive uniform set. Bindings are sound and square throughout. Covers generally excellent with only occasional light scuffing or minor signs of handling.

Aggiungi al carrelloThe recipient of this letter is the surgeon Henry William Robert Davey (1798-1870) of Yarmouth, son of surgeon Henry Sallows Davey (1781-1855) of Beccles; and the 'Mr. Bell' mentioned in it is Sir Charles Bell, who had taught Davey ten years before at Theatre of Anatomy, Great Windmill Street. 2pp, 12mo. Bifolium. In fair condit…ion, lightly aged, with a strip cut away from the outside edge of the second leaf, which carries two postmarks and Watson's address to 'Henry Davey Esqre | Tavistock Hotel | Covent Garden'. Twenty-one lines of neatly-written text. He begins by apologising for being 'in such a hurry' when Davey called at his house that morning that he 'did not immediately open my Friend Rennie's letter In fact I was just starting, as you perhaps saw, to visit a Patient in the Country'. Should Davey 'not have succeeded in meeting with Mr. Bell' Watson will have 'great pleasure in shewing you the London University'. He can 'with difficulty' suggest a time when he is 'sure to be found at home', but he 'must be at the Middlesex Hospital' on the following day between noon and one o'clock, 'where I shall be very glad to see you if you think I can be useful to you'. From the distinguished autograph collection of the psychiatrist Richard Alfred Hunter (1923-1981), whose collection of 7000 works relating to psychiatry is now in Cambridge University Library. Hunter and his mother Ida Macalpine had a particular interest in the illness of King George III, and their book 'George III and the Mad Business' (1969) suggested the diagnosis of porphyria popularised by Alan Bennett in his play 'The Madness of George III'.

Aggiungi al carrelloBoth documents 1p., folio. Both in good condition, on lightly-aged laid paper, the first with pin-holes from its attachment to another item. The first letter relates to 'the Expences incurred in constructing the Royal Military Canal', with reference to a 'Letter from Sir B[rook]. Watson Bt' and 'Lieut. Col. Brown's Accounts for…expenditure'. The second letter again deals with communications from Watson and Brown, the latter 'enclosing Accounts & Vouchers for the Expenditure on the Royal Military Canal & Rampart'. The Royal Military Canal, conceived by Lieutenant-Colonel John Brown as a defence against invasion, runs for 28 miles between Seabrook near Folkestone and Cliff End near Hastings. In mid-1805, due to the slow progress of the work, the contractors and consultant engineer John Rennie had been dismissed and replaced by the Quartermaster-General's department with Brown in command.
