1880réf. 42402London Harrison and Sons 1880. 4to. No wrappers as extracted from "Philosophical Transactions" 1879 Vol. 171 - Part II. Pp. 539-593. First printing of a main paper by the "Father of Geophysics" in which he shows that the effect of the tides was to force a retreat of the moon from the earth - thus going backward in time in the history of the earth he concludes that the earth had been in contact with the moon and this represents the time at which the whirling earth threw off a portion of its outer crust by centrifugal action loosing angular motion in that way."Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems. That many of his conclusions are now out of date should in no way diminish the historical interest in his experiments nor the importent service thet he rendered cosmogony by the example he gave of putting various hypotheses to the test of actual calculations. Darwin's method remains a milestone in the development of cosmogony and subsequent investigators have favored it over the merely qualitative arguments prevalent until that time."DSB. unknown

First appearance of an importent paper announcing Darwin's so-called "Resonance Theory" of the origin of the moon according to which the moon might have originated from the fission of a parent earth as the result of an instability produced by resonant solar tides."Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems. That many of his conclusions are now out of date should in no way diminish the historical interest in his experiments nor the importent service thet he rendered cosmogony by the example he gave of putting various hypotheses to the test of actual calculations.

1929réf. 82794Indianapolis IN: The Bobs-Merrill Company 1929. First edition first printing. Inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper "To Jean Hersholt a great artist from the author of this book Lorna Moon". With the bookplate of the Motion Picture Country House tipped-in above the inscription and two MPCH ink stamps to the front pastedown. The author Nora Low grew up in Aberdeenshire but eventually moved to the US and became a Hollywood screenwriter working on a number of hits in the 1920s including Mr. Wu starring Lon Chaney Don't Tell Everything 1921 starring Gloria Swanson and Her Husband's Trademark 1922 with Gloria Swanson and directed by Cecil B. DeMille Love 1927 and Anna Karenina starring Greta Garbo. She also wrote two semi-autobiographical literary works: the short story collection Doorways in Drumorty 1925 and the present novel Dark Star 1929 which was adapted as the film Min and Bill in 1930. Both were based on her childhood in a small inward looking town in Scotland and explore similar themes including "the particular codes and conventions created by such a closed community patterns of surveillance strictures of public morality evidence of private despair. They engage with the margins of this world presenting itinerants outcasts and misfits with a distinct lack of sentimentality. Low's work is also striking in its awareness of the position of women in the community: her stories deal with minutiae with networks of power which operate in apparently insignificant areas" ODNB. Though Hersholt one of the leading Hollywood actors of the early 20th century never appeared in a film written by Low the two may have been acquainted either socially or professionally. The bookplate records that this copy was donated by Hersholt to the Motion Picture Country House a retirement community for Hollywood figures that as president of the Motion Picture Relief Fund he was instrumental in founding in 1940. A lovely copy uncommon in such nice condition with an excellent association. Octavo. Original black cloth white cloth backstrip titles to spine in black and red red top-stain. With dust jacket. A little pale spotting to boards top stain faded. An excellent copy in the jacket with faded spine panel a few minor nicks and a short closed tear to the lower panel. hardcover
