Selected Bibliography. Index. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Signed with sentiment by the author. The inscription reads Best wishes for a Halley Halley's year and many more to come. Roberta J. M. Olson December 11, 1985. Foreword by Isaac Asimov. Analyzes the treatment of comets in the works of artists such as William Blake, Vincent van Gogh, and Honore Daumier. Roberta Jeanne Marie Olson (born 1947) is an American historian of art. She is the author of many books on art history and is known for her work on Italian art, on astronomy in art, and on the ornithological illustrations of John James Audubon. Olson has a Ph.D. in art history from Princeton University. Her 1975 doctoral dissertation was Studies in the Later Works of Sandro Botticelli. She taught at Wheaton College for 25 years; after retiring as professor emerita, she became curator of drawings at the New-York Historical Society in 2000, and then in 2021, curator of drawings emerita. Extracted from an article in the Library Journal by Mary T. Gerrity: The return of Halley's comet has inspired this view of comets through a variety of artistic interpretations from primitive woodcuts to 20th-Century pop art. The title refers to the blazing tail known from earliest times and the "dirty snowball" theory deduced by modern scientists. Excellent reproductions present such master artists as Raphael, Giotto, Blake and Miro, the anonymous Bayeux tapestry embroideries and the satirists Rowlandson and Hogarth. The words of scientists, poets and other literary artists add depth to the "comet art," while tracing the scientific and historical development of Halley's comet. Fire and Ice accompanies the major exhibit of the same name at the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution and is a handsome addition to material on Halley's comet.…

Hardcover with dust jacket. Condizione: excellent condition, new book. First Edition - First Printing On June 21, 2004, SpaceShipOne, built by aircraft designer Burt Rutan, entered space and ushered in the commercial space age. Investment capital began to pour into the new commercial spaceflight industry. Richard Branson's VirginGalactic will begin ferrying space tourists out of the atmosphere in 2010. Las Vegas hotelier Robert Bigelow is developing the world's first commercial space station (i.e., space hotel). These space entrepreneurs, including Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, now see space as the next big thing. In Rocketeers, Michael Belfiore goes behind the scenes of this nascent industry, capturing its wild-west, anything-goes flavor. Likening his research to "hanging out in the Wright brothers' barn," Belfiore offers an inspiring and entertaining look at the people who are not afraid to make their bold dreams a reality. 305 p. photos.…
