Trade Paperback. Condición: Used - Good. Florence Dibell Bartlett (1881-1953) founded the world's first international folk art museum, today the world's largest. The Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe is where this cultural leader from Chicago made manifest her belief that folk art is the bond between the peoples of the world. The Bartletts were a prominent Chicago family of businessmen and civic leaders. Three of four siblings made public gifts through art, including Frederic Clay Bartlett at Chicago Art Institute, Maie Bartlett Heard, co-founder of the Heard Museum, and Florence--whose interest in foreign travel and human endeavor put her in step with Eleanor Roosevelt as a beacon for forward thinking humanism. The Bartlett collection and vision still guide the Museum of International Folk Art, and this biography of a significant cultural leader and her times is balanced with fine examples of the costumes, jewelry, textiles, ceramics, furniture and painting she collected from all over the world. This book is published to coincide with an exhibition to mark the 50th anniversary of the Museum of International Folk Art (Museum of New Mexico). Book has minor shelf wear.…

1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL PRINTED WRAPS OF A REPORT ON NUCLEAR POWER PLANT ACCIDENTS PREPARED BY A STUDY GROUP OF THE AMERICAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY UNDER CONTRACT WITH THE U.S. NUCLEAR REGULATORY COMMISSION. The Reviews of Modern Physics published this issue, a special one hundred-fifty page supplement, to present the results of the study. Note that the attached images show the full content pages in more detail. "The American Physical Society (APS) formed a study group on radionuclide release from severe accidents at nuclear power plants to "review the adequacy of the technical base upon which the phenomenological models for radionuclide release from postulated severe reactor accidents are constructed, the adequacy of the models themselves, and the correct use of the complex computer codes that incorporate these models in the analyses of accident sequences. The impetus to the existing research came from the observation that much less radioactive iodine was released during the Three Mile Island accident than had been expected in an accident of that magnitude. It is of obvious interest to inquire how general that observation is" ("Report to the APS, RMP, 57, 3, July, 1985, S3). CONDITION & DETAILS: Lancaster: American Physical Society.
