Scarce monograph on the molecular scattering of light. Jean Cabannes was a French physicist specialising in optics. From 1910 to 1914 Cabannes worked in the laboratory of Charles Fabry in Marseille on the topic launched by Lord Rayleigh at the end of the 19th century of how gas molecules diffused light. In 1914 he showed that pure gases could scatter light. This was published in Comptes Rendus in 1915. His career was then interrupted for five years by World War I. In 1919 Cabannes returned to Fabry's laboratory to complete his thesis after which he moved to Montpellier and later on to Paris. In 1925 he and Jean Dufay calculated the height of the ozone layer. J. Cabannes P. Daure and Y. Rocard were among the scientists who in 1928 discovered that gases diffusing monochromatic light could also change their wavelength the Cabannes-Daure effect.

1959réf. 332719Berkeley: University of California Press 1959. Hardcover. An uglified ex-library copy this complete set is more for readers than collectors. Volumes I and II respectively xviii 1179 ix 1183--1894p. textblock is handsomely printed and bound with firm handleable signatures and even casing's hinges remain OK. But back to aesthetics: covers and titlepages were desecrated with "library marks" then further ruined with crude attempts to disguise these marks. A once-beautiful set has been dreadfully cheapened. On the plus side well "cheap" is not bad of itself and as stated above the hinges and text-blocks are easily handleable. "Reader's set University of California Press hardcover

Born in 1942 of wealthy parentsJochen Rindt was brought up in Austriataking up motor racing seriously when he was 21. After some years with Coopersand a year with Brabham he joined Lotus in 1969to gain victory for them in 1970.With his rebellious temperament and love of the high lifehe became hero-worshipped by the crowdsand his presence gave motor racing a panache and excitement it had lacked for some years. Jochen Rindt had begun work on this book with Heinz Pruller some time before his deathand after the tragedy it was complete with the help and support of Nina RindtJochen's beautiful Finnish wifewho writes of it 'I am sure this book will be the most true story about Jochen and his life.' Heinz Prullerthe author of this book was a close friend of Jochen and they had actually started work on it before the tragic death of Jochen at Monza. Heinz Pruller is a well-known motor-racing journalist and radio and television commentatorboth in his native Austria and on the international motor-racing scene.

The Berlin of 1939 - gay exultant intoxicated with easy victories - is the backgound to the personal drama of a young woman deserted by her husband lonely miserable desperately missing the two sons she has reluctantly placed with foster parents in order to earn a living. Three years of devastating Allied air attacks and mounting German defeats in the field are seen through the eyes of a woman now happily remarried fearful for the safety of her re-united family her mother-in-law in Hamburg and her brother on the Russian front. The siege of Berlin is rememberd by a woman whose brother was killed in the city's defence; the harsh realities of defeat and occupation are made vivid and unforgettable by someone whose home was turned into a soldiers' billet whose husband was shot by Russian invaders." - from dust-jacket blurb. .
