Descripción del artículo del vendedor

In very fine gift quality. FIRST EDITION FIRST PRINTING Custom made clamshell box having paper punch card inset with the brain overlaid on IBM punch card. Contains IBM punch cards. From the library collection of Marian H. Rose Marian Rose, 104, Born Marian Heineman on Oct. 11, 1920 was engaged in early research for the Manhattan Project at Columbia in 1942-43. In 2022, during all the attention being paid to the film "Oppenheimer," Rose described her Manhattan Project involvement as very "hush-hush." She was the only woman on a team of about a dozen low-level scientists in a basement at Columbia working on separating isotopes of uranium, prior to Oppenheimer’s involvement. But as a student, she was in classes taught by Edward Teller and Enrico Fermi — and she recalled Albert Einstein being a family friend in Belgium, after he left Germany. For most of her post-Ph.D. career, Rose concentrated on magnetically confined hydrogen fusion reactors. Hydrogen fusion, a still unrealized source of unlimited energy, involves fusing hydrogen into helium, with an enormous release of energy in the process. Her approach was to use intense magnetic fields to confine the hydrogen gas under the very high temperatures required to produce energy. After she founded the Croton Watershed Clean Water Coalition in 1997, it grew to have 50 member groups from New York City, Westchester, Putnam, Rockland and Dutchess counties. It succeeded in eliminating or reducing footprints of many proposed developments that would have harmed wetlands, forests, reservoirs and unjustly impacted communities.
