Stockholm, 1907. J. M. Erikssons tryckeri. 8vo - pp. (2), [1] - 40, illustr. (5 fig.). Påkostat presentband i röd saffian (G. Hedberg, Stockholm) med pärmspeglar, ryggtryck och inre denteller i guld. Försätts med vackert gröna marmorerade papper. Hela guldsnitt. Lätt nötta hörn och enstaka otydliga skrapmärken på pärmarna. Det påkostade presentbandet är en gåva av boktryckare J. M. Eriksson till författaren. Medbundet dedikationsblad före smutstitelbladet - Till Herr Doktor Thor Stenbeck vördsamt J. M. Eriksson. Således ur Thor Stenbecks privata boksamling. Thor Stenbeck (1864-1914) var läkare och svensk pionjär inom radiologin tillsammans med bl a Tage Sjögren (1859-1939) och Gösta Forssell (1876-1950). Stenbeck genomförde 1899 världens första lyckade strålbehandling av en hudcancer. Stenbecks läkarkarriär är till stor del en historia om uppgång och fall. Från okänd amanuens vid Serafimer-lasarettet i början av 1896, till kändis och omskriven i pressen före årets slut, tvingades han tio år senare under press av läkarkolleger att begära utträde ur Stockholms läkareförening. Han blev persona non grata och det var antagligen flera händelser i hans yrkesverksamma liv som låg bakom detta. Stenbeck var en av de första i Sverige att börja använda och experimentera med de av Conrad Röntgen i januari 1896 upptäckta röntgen-strålarna. Han fick inledningvis stor uppmärksamhet från den medicinska professionen i form av bidrag för bl a teknisk utrustning, resebidrag för deltagande i kongresser i Europa inte bara när det gällde röntgen-strålarnas använding inom medicinen, utan även de s k teslaströmmarnas fysiologiska verkningar. Med tiden kom dock en enad läkarkår att allt mer ifrågasätta om det gick att bota tuberkulossjuka människor med metoden. 1906 inträffade en händelse som inte bättrade på hans rykte. I febr 1906 anklagades Stenbeck - inledningsvis utan att namnges - för att ha våldtagit en flicka i samband med att hon fick s k livmodermassage på hans praktik. Nyheten spreds och många upprörda röster hördes. 1914 bara ett par månader efter hans frus bortgång tog han sitt liv. SBL Band 33 (2007-2011), p. 213 (Solveig Jülich)

Amsterdam, North-Holland Publishing Company, 1964. Royal8vo. Bound in contemporary full cloth with gilt lettering to spine. In "Physics Letters", Vol. 13, 1964. Library stamp to upper part of pasted down front free end-paper. A very fine and clean copy. Pp. 168-171. [Entire volume: 368 pp.]. First printing of this seminal paper which provides a unified theory of weak and electromagnetic interactions. Their theory predicted the existence of new elementary particles, the W and Z bosons. These particles were found in experiments performed in 1983. For this work Salam shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1979 with Glashow and Weinberg."Beginning in the late 1950s, Salam's group at Imperial had become perhaps the most active of the groups working in gauge theories during a period in which quantum field theories had been displaced by another approach, the S-matrix model. While many theorists were looking toward this latter method in the hopes of avoiding the seemingly intractable difficulties that had begun to arise with field-theoretic calculations, Salam believed that a more "fundamental" explanation would have to come from invoking the standard perturbation method for quantum field theory. This conviction, shared by his collaborators at Imperial, was transmitted to his students. In 1964 the group started a research program on gauge theories. The aim of this program was to find the mathematical group of transformations that left "invariant" the laws that rule an interaction: The question was whether or not the interaction depended on certain physical properties of the particles, such as electric charge or other "quantum numbers."The aim was to find symmetry groups that showed that interactions that seem essentially different are just manifestations of a more general one, such as in the electromagnetic theory, in which Salam's goal was to unify electromagnetic and weak interactions."

Leipzig, B. G. Teubner, 1891. 8vo. Bound in recent full black cloth with gilt lettering to spine. In "Mathematische Annalen", Volume 39., 1891. Entire volume offered. Library label pasted on to pasted down front free end-paper. Small library stamp to lower part of title title page and verso of title page. Very fine and clean. Pp. 293-390 . [Entire volume: IV, 600 pp. + 1 plate.] First printing of Scheffers's important paper which contributed considerably to the development of modern algebra. Scheffers here distinguishes between a "Nichtquaternion system" (Nqss) and a Quaternion system (Qss). In today's language, Scheffers' Qss has the quaternion algebra as a subalgebra.Scheffers anticipates the concepts of direct product of algebras and direct sum of algebras with his section on reducibility, addition, and multiplication of systems. Thus Scheffers pioneered the structural approach to algebra. The volume contain several other papers by influential contemporary mathematicians.

Stamp to front free end-paper and titlepage, otherwise fine and clean. Pp. 97-113. [Entire volume: VIII, 845 pp.]. First printing of Tamm and Schubin's important paper in which they showed that the external photoeffect is caused by the presence of a jump in potential on the border of the metal vacuum."In 1931 - 1933 Tamm studied the quantum theory of metals, specifically the external photoeffect in metals and the state levels of the electrons on the surface of the metal. His work with S. P. Shubin was the first to show that the external photoeffect is caused by the presence of a jump in potential on the border of the metal vacuum and is associated with the effect of surface absorption of light, while the optic absorption of light by the metal is associated with the volume effect."

Title page missing a small piece of paper to the right margin, not affecting text. Very fine and clean. Pp. 363-414. [Entire volume: IV, 576 pp.]. First printing of Paul du Bois-Reymond's important paper in which he anticipate Cantor's famous "diagonal argument". Although Cantor proved that the real numbers are uncountable one year earlier he did not find the much clearer diagonal argument until some years later."In 1875, he described dense sets under the title 'pantachisch,' from the Greek for 'everywhere.' He later claimed, against Georg Cantor, priority in their discovery. In his textbook, Hobson awarded the laurels to du BoisReymond. Although Cantor presented his first diagonal proof to the public in On an elementary question of set theory [Cantor 1891], Paul du Bois-Reymond had been there well before him, having published a plainly diagonal argument in an 1875 article on approximation by in?nitesimals. [P. du Bois-Reymond 1875] Arguably his greatest invention was the Infinitärcalcül or infinitary calculus, an original, nonCantorean account of infinite and infinitesimal sizes as first-classentities that represent not the extents of collections but the rates of growth of real-valued functions." (McCarty, David Hilbert and Paul du Bois-Reymond: Limits and Ideals).

(New York), American Telephone and Telegraph Company, 1968. 8vo. Volume 47, September, No. 7, 1968 of "The Bell System Technical Journal". In the original printed blue wrappers. A bit of sunning to spine and previous owner's stamp to front wrapper, otherwise a very nice, fresh, and internally near mint, copy. Pp. 1143-1537. Illustrated throughout. First publication of Bell system's famous TD-3 issue. The TD-3 was the replacement of the highly successful TD-2 system.The TD-2 was the backbone of all transcontinental television broadcasting and long distance telephone traffic, before satellite transmission was made possible. By 1962 the TD-2 was carrying more than 80,000 miles of intercity television circuits and approximately 35,000,000 miles of telephone circuits, representing more than 90 per cent of all intercity video and 40 per cent of all long distance telephone circuits' mileage. It had, however, several shortcomings: It had maintenance problems, required a multi voltage power source and the noise performance were considered only marginally satisfactory. The TD-3 was to improve these shortcomings and prepare the network for increased capacity. 1. Hathaway, S.D.; Hensel, W.G.; Jordan, D.R.; Prime, R.C. TD-3 Microwave Radio Relay System.

The Danish translation was already begun by Meden, before Garve had finished publishing the last part of his work in the original German, -it was originally published 1797-1800, and the Danish translation appeared 1799-1800!Though almost forgotten today, Charistian Garve (1742-98) was a German philosopher, who exercised great influence on the contemporary Enlightenment-philosophers. During the late period of the Enlightenment he actually counted as one of the three most famous philosophers, the other two being Moses Mendelssohn and Kant. He also counts as one of the pioneers of "Volkskunde", and he contributed to what we would now call "popular philosophy". He initially became famous through his many translations (e.g. of Cicero's "De oficiis", Adam Smith's "Wealth of Nations", Ferguson's "Institutes of Moral Philosophy"), and in his own philosophy he was deeply influenced by English and Scottish philosophy as well as by Stoic ethics.Peter Andreas Meden (1771-1831) was a Danish Priest, originally of Dutch descent. He was quite influential as a translator of German rationalistic works.
