Bode Carl editor
The Editor the Bluenose and the Prostitute H.L. Mencken's History of the "Hatrack" Censorship Case
Boulder CO; 1988: Roberts Rinehart. First Edition. Octavo. First printing. 174 pages. Limited signed edition No. 49 of 250 copies.Carl Bode who wrote an important biography of H.L. Mencken knew of the eight thick bound volumes in the Enoch Pratt Free Library all labelled "The Hatrack Case". Included here are newspaper and magazine clippings and other sources about one of the most sensational court cases of the 1920's the attempt to get the April 1926 issue of the American Mercury off the newstand since it contained Herbet Asbury's article "Hatrack" which was consider obscene. It sat buried in the Pratt LIbrary unknown to only a few Mencken scholars for more than thirty years. Here Bode has written the definitive study of the case which was thrown out of court but J. Frank Chase known as The Last Puritan was able to get it from going through the mails. This volume is important in dealing with censorship as it existed in the early 20th Century. Bound in white cloth spine lettering red. A fine copy in cloth covered slipcase with a bit of fading. Roberts Rinehart unknown books

This paper Bode's "best known and most succinct contribution to feedback theory" pre-dates Bode's better known work "Network Analysis and Feedback Amplifier Design" by 5 years and is the first publication on Bode plots. It is a seminal work in the field of control theory.<br/><br/>"Henry Wade Bode was widely known as one of the most articulate thoughtful exponents of the philosophy and practice of systems engineering - the science and art of integrating technical components into a coherent system that is optimally adapted to its social function.Bode in 1929 transferred to Bell Labs' mathematical research group.and specialized in network theory and its application to long-distance communications.

BODE Johann Elert 17471826
Vorstellung der Gestirne auf XXXIV Kupfertafeln nach der Pariser ausgabe des Flamsteadschen Himmelsatlas.
Berlin: Bey Gottlieb August Lange 1782. First Edition thus. Hardcover. Very Good. Oblong folio 210 x 270mm. Pagination: viii 32pp. title 34 leaves of plates and 2 leaves of manuscript indices in German comprising registers based on Bodes Uranographie and dated 1801 bound in at end. Signatures: 4 a-e4 A-D4. Letterpress title page and text within twice-ruled borders. 34 hand-colored copperplate engravings and pictorial title page group of putti surrounding globe at base of column inscribed Die Gestirne signed by D. Berger Sculpt. 1782 i.e. Daniel Berger 17441825 all finely colored in a contemporary hand for the major star constellations and groups. Bodes plates have been celebrated for their accuracy and as elegantly rendered depictions of the zodiacal beasts constellations and other celestial bodies. Near contemporary calf; rebacked spine gilt with title Flamstead Gestirne corners carefully repaired; some light overall browning but plate colors remain fresh and bright a beautiful copy of this classic and significant work for astronomy. <br/><br/>First edition of Johann Elert Bodes German version the Vorstellung der Gestirne after the smaller French Flamsteed star atlas by Fortin in 1776. In all the same but enlarged with Bodes newly engraved plates which included about 50 percent additional stars and constellations in improved positions over the 5000 stars included in Flamsteeds coordinate system. The Vorstellung der Gestirne was updated and reissued one more time by Bode in 1805 only after J. J. de Lalande and Pierre F. A. Mechain published their updated version of Fortins star atlas in 1795 and Christian Goldbach published his version in 1799. Johann Elert Bode 17471826 royal astronomer and director of the Berlin Observatory for almost 40 years sought to improve the coverage and accuracy of celestial cartography in his time he also wanted to provide charts for the amateur astronomer. Working alongside such contemporaries as Charles Messier 17301817 who first published the Messier objects list in 1771 and then again in 1781 Bodes Vorstellung der Gestirne also identified non-stellar objects like nebulae clusters and binary stars. The expert engraver of these whimsical night sky pictures Daniel Berger 17441825 came from a family of Berlin-based artists who were highly trained and well-regarded in their trade. This copy of the Vorstellung der Gestirne incorporates two manuscript leaves of added indices; the first register was based on Bodes later and larger star catalogue: the Uranographia sive Astrorum Descriptio 1801 containing summary counts and comparisons for stars. The other comprises a list about meridians arranged by time midnight and by the first day of the month. Doubtless an avid 19th century student of astronomy keenly familiar with Bodes works poured over both publications in order to create a larger reference system. It is an utterly unique addition to an already extraordinary publication representing the best in astronomical illustration and scientific advancement in the Age of Enlightenment.
