Añadir al carritoSoft cover. Condición: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine; see scans and description. Chicago: Atomic Scientists of Chicago, 1948. The August, 1948 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. 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…eight minutes of midnight as of mid-1948. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 32 pp. (pages 225 through 256 for the annual volume, pages then being numbered after the fashion of the time). Fine; no flaws. Even the inevitable page paper toning is almost nonexistent. A handsome example; see all scans. 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. Feature articles in this vintage 1948 issue: Edward U. Condon Cleared by Atomic Energy Commission; AEC Medical Program (Isotopes Symposium); Joyce Clennam Stearns; British Scientists on International Atomic Control; Atomic Power Prospects; Atomic Peace with Russia?: United Nations & Atomic Energy News; On the Application of Intelligence to World Affairs; Middle-Run International Planning. More, of course; see scan of contents. Contributors include William T. R. Fox; Shields Warren; Arthur Holly Compton (discoverer of The Compton Effect); Henry L. Stimson; M. H. L. Pryce; Philip Quincy Wright; Peter Kihss; and the editors. Very, very scarce as the original monthly softcover issue. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR30.

Terry of Plymouth, Connecticut, through his gift of an endowment fund for the delivery and subsequent publication of 'Lectures on Religion in the Light of Scien…ce and Philosophy.'

He is also recognized for his role as the head of the Metallurgical Laboratory at the University of Chicago during the Manhattan Project. Portrait frontis, 19 pages, 370 pages, 9 illustrations. Original brown cloth, lettered spine and upper board. Mall damp mark to the front boards at bottom edge and just catching outer margins of first and last pages. Contents bright and clean throughout.

Añadir al carritopp. [70]-79, wraps, evenly toned, otherwise very good. 8x10.5 inches. Reprinted from the Proceedings of the American Philosophical Society, Volume 90, Number 1, 1946. Speech presented on the occasion of Compton's receipt of the Benjamin Franklin medal, awarded by the American Philosophical Society. Compton lectures on how atomic… weapons would allow a centralized mechanism for enforcing global peace, as an atomic war would be too destructive, and states that maintaining peace must be the objective of world government. Compton, a researcher who worked on the Manhattan Project in Chicago, recommended the use of the atomic bomb against Japan. He had received the Nobel Prize in 1927. In 1946, Compton also received a Medal for Merit from the US government.

Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: Very Good. 1st Edition. Brown cloth on boards with red and silver lettering to front, same to spine. Book is tight and square with some minor rubbing to corners and scuffing to head of spine. Biggest flaw is some discoloration to the covers and fading to the lettering on both front and spine. Interior is qu…ite good, at least Very good, perhaps Near Fine, with just the faint remnant of where a marker bled through a stick-on note to inside front cover. No DJ but a solid copy of a VERY RARE book. Compton was the recipient of the 1927 Nobel Prize in Physics and leader of the Manhattan Project. Arthur Holly Compton (18921962) was an American physicist whose study of X-rays during the early 1920s led to his discovery of the Compton Effect. For this discovery, he won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1927, sharing it with Charles Wilson. His discoveries were key to the eventual development of atomic energy. He was asked to join the Manhattan Project in 1942, becoming head of "X-Projects" at the Metallurgical Laboratory at the University of Chicago. First Edition, First Printing (Only statement on copyright page is 1956).
