‎Vicinus Herbert F. 1918 95‎

‎WORLD WAR II LETTERS OF A NEW YORK LIEUTENANT INJURED IN ACTION‎

‎Very good. A collection of approximately 80 handwritten letters from a Rochester New York man injured in battle during World War II. The group also includes a few letters written by the mother of Lt. Herbert F. Vicinus 1918-95 who enlisted with the U.S. Army in 1940 and was deployed overseas shortly after he was married in 1943. During his deployment the first of Vicinus' sons was born. His second child Kenneth wrote a self-published memoir entitled "Wrong Minded" 2014 recalling growing up next-door to his maternal grandparents and his father's career at Eastman Kodak. The collection includes a handful of letters written by Vicinus to his wife Henrietta while he was in training in 1943. Following a short gap the letters pick up in early 1944. On June 6 1944 D-Day he writes: "You're wondering where I am and lots of things. I know how terribly worried you are. Please don't be. I do hope you can feel my nearness and I hope I'm able to quiet your fears. I'm alright and always shall be. Yes I'm as excited as everyone else is. I'm listening to the new and trying to get the full picture of it. It's really a feeling of relief and cause for cheering to know that the beginning of the end is near. We've been waiting a long time for it." While overseas Vicinus wrote to his wife on a near daily basis so one can imagine it was concerning to her when there was a long gap in his letters. On July 28 he wrote "I must say I don't know when I'll be able to write you again but darling I will at the first opportunity." In the next letter written from a hospital in England on August 13 he tells her about being injured: "Don't get scared now - I promise you I'm alright. I'm sitting in a very comfortable bed in a nice clean set of pajamas and enjoying the luxury of the service in a hospital. I got a slight wound in my right foot the 10th of the month 4 p.m. in fact. A piece of shrapnel went through my right foot. A slight fracture of the bone included." We then learn from his letters that he did not receive mail from her until September 4 despite writing letters to her daily once he was hospitalized: "You made me very happy today dear. In fact I feel like a different person. This morning I received three swell letters from you." In response to his wife's questions he also writes that it's unlikely he will be sent home "I'm not wounded badly enough" he says. "It will heal right here and I'll be perfectly alright soon." By mid-December Vicinus is out of the hospital and back in active service. The final letter in the archive is written from Antwerp on September 30 1945: "At last we've been alerted for movement Honey. I haven't written for two or three days now Honey. It's not that I didn't want to. It's just that I felt so low and despondent I couldn't write anything cheerful and I'd be a worse heel to send you one to make you feel blue." The collection is housed in plastic sleeves within in a three-ring binder. The vast majority of the letters are accompanied by the original mailing envelopes and are in very good condition. unknown books‎

‎Le Musee de L'Hopital Saint-Louis; Iconographie des Maladies Cutanees et Syphilitiques avec texte Explicatif.‎

‎Paris:: Rueff et Cie 1895-97. 1895. Folio. 2 iv 346 pp. 50 chromolithographic plates 23 engravings 18 photogravures. Contemporary half crimson gilt-stamped morocco marbled boards raised bands. Very good. RARE. First edition. A MASTERPIECE OF PHOTO-CHROMOLITHOGRAPHY. "The authors of this book were senior doctors at the Hôpital Saint-Louis. Besnier presided over the 4th International Congress of Dermatologists held in Paris in 1900. The museum had been founded by Devergie in 1865. During his 25 year long career Devergie commissioned water colour paintings of the major skin diseases for use in his lectures. It was not long before these were supplemented by photographs and moulages. Between 1867 and 1894 the Italian moulage artist M. Baretta 1834-1925 produced 1800 such models. He devised the internal colouring technique. This is a technique whereby the colours are applied in between the layers of wax. The effect is one of transparency and greater similarity to the colour of human skin Zanca and Tagliavini. The various separate lesions have been portrayed exceptionally well. Less attention was paid to facial expressions. The museum now has a collection of 4667 moulages at its disposal Dahm. The finest among them were reproduced in this book. The printing technique used was photochromy." – Franz Ehring Skin Diseases: 5 Centuries of Scientific Illustration. pp. 176-177. "Ernest Besnier was born in Honfleur in 1831. He studied in Paris and was a celebrated pupil of Hardy and Bazin. Having been graduated in 1857 he turned his attention exclusively to dermatology and by 1872 had become a chief at l'Hôpital Saint Louis." "Besnier was active in all phases of dermatology. Although essentially French in his diathetic thinking he was responsible for translating Kaposi's text into French with masterful annotations by himself. His monograph on psoriasis his work on atopic dermatitis. and his work on eczema entitle him to his place as the leading French dermatologist of his time." - Shelley & Crissey Classics in Clinical Dermatology p. 246. "Ernest Besnier was the unquestioned master of French dermatology towards the end of the 19th century. When he took over the leadership of the Parisian dermatology clinic in 1873 French dermatology had lost its premier position and fallen behind the Vienna school not only in regards to research and teaching but also in terms of space and equipment. Besnier reformed French dermatology incorporating many advances from Vienna such as establishing laboratories for bacteriology mycology and histopathology and encouraging basic research. As he retired just before the turn of the century French dermatology had closed the gap." "Ernest Henri Besnier was born on 21 April 1831 in Honfleur a small village in the Normandy. Since his father was a customs official the family moved frequently including stays in Marseille and Orleans. Besnier studied medicine in Paris and advanced to Interne des Hôpitaux in 1853. His teachers included Ernest Bazin Philippe Boyer and Henri-Louis Royer whose niece Besnier married a few years later. In 1857 his doctoral thesis on the diagnosis and therapy of ileus was accepted. He continued to address mainly internal medicine themes. Named Medecin des Hôpitaux in 1863 he published between 1864 and 1872 studies ranging from cholera to diseases of the spleen to rheumatic diseases to gall stones becoming one of the best known internists in France. As signs of recognition he was elected Vice-President of the Societe anatomique in 1861 and Secretary-General of the Societe Medicale des hôpitaux in 1864. He served as a military physician in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870/1871 and was awarded the highest military honor being named a Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur." "When Bazin retired as head of dermatology clinic at Hôpital Saint-Louis at the end of 1872 Besnier was the highest ranking faculty member and entitled to the position. Although no one dreamed he would desert internal medicine for dermatology he accepted the challenge. With little experience but great energy he started his new job on 1 January 1873. Within a few months he had read the entire dermatologic literature concentrating on the works of Bazin and Erasmus Wilson; he profited greatly from the immense clinical experience of his colleague Charles Lailler who tactfully assumed the role of the old experienced tutor. Besnier also benefited from working together with Adrien Doyon the founder and editor of the Annales de Dermatologie et de Syphiligraphie; Doyen made him aware of the great advances in dermatology in Germany and Austria. With Besnier' encouragement Doyen translated into French Moriz Kaposi's textbook from 1880 Pathologie und Therapie der Hautkrankheiten. Besnier employed his by now encyclopedic knowledge of the dermatologic literature to provide commentaries which enhanced Doyen's translation. The French edition appeared just one year later 1881 and dominated the training of dermatologists in France for the next two decades and helped to reduce the differences between the French and German-speaking schools of dermatology. In 1881 Besnier also became editor of the Annales de Dermatologie et de Syphiligraphie and was named a member of the medical academy." "Kaposi's Clinic in Vienna was the model of a modern dermatology clinic for Besnier. In 1882 he asked Doyen for a detailed report over the Viennese clinic which was published in the Annales de Dermatologie et de Syphiligraphie and including information not only about the teaching program and costs of inpatient care but also covered such details as patient clothing the size of hospital rooms and how instruction signs were posted on the walls. When compared to Vienna the conditions in Hôpital Saint-Louis were primitive. Besnier described his outpatient clinic as a sleazy ramshackle hut completely unworthy of a great capital city. He demanded the construction of new inpatient wards and emphasized the importance of a histopathology laboratory. He also established the first laboratory for bacteriology and mycology at Hôpital Saint-Louis. Besnier demanded a change from purely descriptive dermatology turned against the nosologic speculations of his predecessor Bazin which he felt had lost validity through the groundbreaking work of Pasteur and demanded the incorporation of knowledge from bacteriology and histopathology into dermatology. In addition he tried to get dermatology incorporated into general medical education so that medical students could not graduate without some exposure to dermatology – that had not been the case previously." "Besnier's daily activities were highly regimented. He arrived every morning at 8:45; once a week he made inpatient rounds while the other days were devoted to specialty clinics. After each patient contact Besnier washed his hands and cleaned under his fingernails. He was always carefully dressed and reserved. his students including Louis Brocq Raymond Sabouraud Lucien Jacquet 1860-1914 George Thibierge Felix Balzer 1849-1929 and Emile Leredde 1866-1926 consider him the ideal academic teacher. He stimulated them to produce many papers. His lectures were clear and contained a great deal of clinical and histopathological information embedded in a broad theoretical background. They attracted a wide range of listeners ranging from pharmacists and medical students to guest physicians from abroad. in 1888 Besnier started weekly meetings on Thursday for all physicians working at Hôpital Saint-Louis during which all the interesting cases of the week were discussed. Out of this meeting evolved in 1889 the Societe francaise de Dermatologie et de Syphiligraphie with Besnier as a founding father. He served initially as Vice-President and then became President in 1892." "Besnier published very little. In 1879 he described the diagnostic possibilities made available by histologic examination and coined the term biopsy. In 1889 he described the diagnostic possibilities made available by histologic examination and coined the term biopsy. In 1889 he described lupus pernio which was recognized a few years later as a manifestation of sarcoidosis and in 1892 he provided the first precise description of atopicdermatitis. In order to properly describe this illness Besnier stated that one had to break away from the tyranny of Willan's and consider not only the primary lesions but all the findings. He stated that the central symptom is pruritus intensive pruritus waxing and waning often worse in the evening with seasonal remissions and exacerbations. The lesion morphology in contrast had little meaning; instead he pointed out that one absolute fundamental characteristic was that none of the lesions associated with or triggered by the illness were specific. Besnier did not use the terms lichen or eczema employing instead lichenification and eczematization to emphasize that the skin changes were not specific but instead banal lesions which resulted from itching and scratching. The disease often started in early childhood and took a variable but chronic course. Sometimes the disease left the skin and presented then primarily as emphysema bronchitis asthma hay fever or less often gastrointestinal problems. Since he felt a congenital tendency towards pruritus existed which then could appear in varying degrees of severity Besnier designated the disease as Prurigo diathesique." – Loser Plewig and Burgdorf Pantheon of Dermatology pp. 89-93.

‎College Park MD:: The Physical Review 1949. 1949. Offprint. 20 pp. Original turquoise printed wrappers. Very good. Abstract: "The partition function for a two-dimensional binary lattice is evaluated in terms of the eigenvalues of the 2 n-dimensional matrix V characteristic for the lattice. Use is made of the properties of the 2 n-dimensional" spin"-representation of the group of rotations in 2 n- dimensions. In consequence of these properties it is shown that the eigenvalues of V are known as soon as one knows the angles of the 2n-dimensional rotation represented by V. Together with the eigenvalues of V the matrix which diagonalizes V is obtained as a spin-representation of a known rotation. The determination of is needed for the calculation of the degree of order. The approximation in which all the eigenvalues of V but the largest are neglected is discussed and it is shown that the exact partition function does not differ much from the approximate result." Israeli theoretical physicist who is known for her contributions to Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity and statistical physics where she used applied spinor analysis to rederive the results of Lars Onsager on the partition function of the two-dimensional Ising Model and to the study of the Mossbauer effect on which she collaborated with John von Neumann and Harry Lipkin. She studied mathematics at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1938 then at Columbia in 1948 for her PhD. The Physical Review, 1949. unknown books‎

The Father of Linear Programming and the Inventor of the "Simplex Method" "Dantzig's paper originally written in 1947 but not published until 1951 was a fundamental application of computers to problems of management and economics. Dantzig was one of three founders together with John von Neumann and Leonid Kantorovich of linear programming a mathematical method used for the optimum allocation of scarce resources among competing activities. In 1947 Dantzig discovered that many such allocation problems could be formulated as linear computer problems. He also devised an algorithm known as the simplex method which allowed these programs to be performed on a large scale and applied to real-world problems. An algorithm of tremendous power the simplex method remains a major part of most operations research applications."

Some of Bang's earliest investigations were on nucleoproteins and nucleic acid. He elucidated the structure of guanylic acid-previously isolated by Hanunarsten-as a compound of guanine pentose and phosphoric acid in equimolar proportions. This research was a major factor in revealing the framework of the nucleotides. He also performed early work on fat protein and nitrogen metabolism so that he coincidentally developed methods useful to clinical chemistry as he demonstrated "normal" and "abnormal" disease chemical processes of the body."
