Greenberg, Martin [editor] Presentation; Arthur C Clarke Copy (Willy Ley, Isaac Asimov, Manly Wade Wellman, Robert Moore Willi
Men Against the Stars
New York: Gnome Press 1950. First Edition . Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good Plus. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Cartier Edd jacket. New York: Gnome Press 1950. First Edition. Introduction by Willy Ley. Edited by Martin Greenberg this copy signed inscribed and presented by him to Arthur C. Clarke. Octavo 351 pp. Purple cloth-backed gray cloth boards with silver spine titling and blindstamped launching-spaceship and star motif on purple margin. Pictorial dustjacket by sci-fi illustration luminary Edd Cartier. A near fine book with only minor page edge soiling and a trace of partial spine fade in a Very Good jacket showing light perimeter wear. Singular copy inscribed and presented to Arthur C. Clarke by Greenberg with provenance of unimpeachable order accompanying the book. An increasingly classic collection of short stories by some of the now-timeless sci-fi names. Willy Ley: "Here is a different type of anthology. This book taken in its entirety tells a story: the conquest of space. Moving from man's first attempt to reach the moon to the exploration of the ends of the universe these stories are among the finest ever published." - Willy Ley. Hailed by critics at the time of its publication as a quantum leap forward in both quality and concept for science fiction anthologies Martin Greenberg's thematically edited Men Against the Stars is a collection of twelve lengthy stories whose authors read like a Who's Who of Golden Age sci-fi including Isaac Asimov Murray Leinster A.E. Van Vogt L. Ron Hubbard Hubbard's "When Shadows Fall" is here and E.M. Hull. Not a slap-dash aggregation to get to the printer quickly Greenberg's collection was a thoroughly contemplated and planned project a selection of the very finest available stories on theme ranging back as far as 1939. Nicely complimented by a Cartier's funky pure genre period stylization jacket. A sci-fi presentation copy of the highest sort that of a veteran and astute editor to a future superstar. Arthur C. Clarke's reputation at the time was already becoming established and Greenberg shows the admiration in his skilled critical eye for Clarke's sci-fi talents in his presentation remark. As always please feel free to ask questions or request additional scans. L53n <br/> <br/> Gnome Press hardcover

Oxoniae Oxford E Theatro Sheldoniano 1702. Folio. Contemporary full calf raised bands rectangular blindtooled frames and central panel "mirror" on covers Cambridge-style binding. leather at joints cracked but cords intact so that covers not loose. Corners a bit bumped. Light wear to spine ends. Spine a bit rubbed. Pastedowns and flyleaves with browning. Title-page with large engraved vignette Sheldon Theater. 124942 pp. With numerous textdiagrams. Very light browning to titlepage and a few marginal brownspots to last leaf a fine clean copy printed on good paper with wide margins.On the verso of the title-page is pasted the book plate of Sir William Baird of Newbaith. He habitually pasted his armorial bookplate on the verso of the title-pages of the books in his large and fine library. <br/><br/><em>First edition of the first text book of astronomy based on Newtonian principles. Apart from its importance in the remodeling of astronomy in conformity with physical theory the work is of the utmost importance as a source book - it contains the FIRST PRINTING OF NEWTON'S PAPER ON LUNAR THEORY "Lunae Theoria Newtoniana" pp. 332-336 as well as the FIRST EXPOSITION OF NEWTON'S CLASSICAL SCHOLIA which Newton himself considered an important part of his philosophy.Gregory a Scottish mathematician who taught at Edinburgh and Oxford was one of Newton's closest friends and associates. Newton thought highly of his work and communicated for insertion it in his Lunar Theory. He also permitted Gregory to use the material of that which is known as his "Classical Scholia" which are incorporated into Gregory's preface. "Newtonian scholars have long been aware of a set of draft Scholia to Propositions IV to IX of Book III of the "Principia". These were composed in the 1690's as part of an unimplemented plan for a second edition of the work. Since they describe supposed anticipation of Newton's doctrines in the thought of Greco-Roman antiquity they have been known as the 'classical' Scholia. Newton's thoughts on these matters were not however kept completely concealed. HE PERMITTED DAVID GREGORY TO USE THE MATERIAL EXTENSIVELY in a long historical preface to his "Astronomiae Physicae & Geometricae Elementa" 1702 IF WITHOUT ATTRIBUTION. It was also available to Maclaurin for his much later work." McGuire & Rattansi in "Newton and the Pipes of Pan" 1966."It was the first textbook composed on gravitational principles and remodeling astronomy in conformity with physical theory. Newton thought highly of it and communicated for insertion in it p. 332 his 'lunar theory' long the guide of practical astronomers in determining the Moon's motions. The discussion in the preface in which the doctrine of gravitation was brought into credit on the score of its antiquity likewise emanated from Newton." DNB."His thick folio text on foundations of astronomy Astronomiae.elementa 1702 is a well-documented but unimaginative attempt to graft the gravitational synthesis propounded in the first book and especially the third book of Newton's Principia onto the findings of traditional astronomy. While respected as a source book it is now chiefly remembered for the remarks by Newton on the prisca sapientia of the ancients and their "knowledge" of the inverse-square law of universal gravitation and for the Latin version of Newton's short paper on lunar theory which it reproduces."
