Entire volume: 2 1366 III- XXVIII pp. First appearance of this short paper in which the taxonomy of coronaviruses is first presented and which also coins the name “Coronavirus” accepted by the International Committee for the Nomenclature of Viruses. Human coronaviruses were discovered in the 1960'ies and by mid-1967 it was recognized that viruses IBV MHV B814 and 229E were structurally and biologically similar so that they form a distinct group. Using electron microscopy the three viruses were shown to be morphologically related by their general shape and distinctive club-like spikes. Tyrrell met Waterson and Almeida in London to decide on the name of the viruses. Almeida had earlier suggested the term "influenza-like" because of their resemblance but Tyrrell thought it inappropriate and not very precise. Almeida came up with the unusual name "coronavirus". “Even though we could only base our judgement on the electron microscope images we were quite certain that we had identified a previously unrecognized group of viruses. So what should we call them 'Influenza-like' seemed a bit feeble somewhat vague and probably misleading. We looked more closely at the appearance of the new viruses and noticed that they had a kind of halo surrounding them. Recourse to a dictionary produced the Latin equivalent corona and so the name coronavirus was born.” Cold Wars: The Fight Against the Common Cold “Particles of IBV are more or less rounded in profile; although there is a certain amount of polymorphism there is also a characteristic "fringe" of projections 200 Å long which are rounded or petal shaped rather than sharp or pointed as in the myxoviruses. This appearance recalling the solar corona is shared by mouse hepatitis virus and several viruses recently recovered from man namely strain B814 229E and several others. In the opinion of the eight virologists these viruses are members of a previously unrecognized group which they suggest should be called the coronaviruses to recall the characteristic appearance by which these viruses are identified in the electron microscope.” From the present paper. hardcover
réf. 2018Crete NE: The Best Cellar Press 1975. First edition. Softcover. Very good. A standout association copy of this handsome chapbook inscribed on the front free endpaper: "To the Stegners with affection from the Berrys." In Wendell Berry's hand. Berry studied with Stegner "the Dean of Western Writers" as a Wallace Stegner Fellow at Stanford University and the two became lifelong friends. Berry's essay "Wallace Stegner and the Great Community" in his collection What Are People For explains his influence even before he arrived at Stanford: "I saw plainly that this man when he was perhaps my age had known how to write and that he had known how much better than I did." Stegner in turn wrote of Berry "It is hard to say whether I like this writer better as a poet an essayist or a novelist. He is all three at a high level." Stiff textured tan-gray wraps staple bound. Tan endpapers and stiff green pages. No limitation stated. Includes the poem "To Gary Snyder" another longtime friend. Very good with sunning along the spine and upper margins more pronounced on rear wrap; small slight scuff at top of front wrap. A great connection between renowned writers of place both with a strong moral and critical backbone . The Best Cellar Press unknown

réf. 21395Zurich: Self-published 1972. Hardcover. First edition. Fine/As New hardcover; illustrated glossy boards no dj as issued. BOOKS SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY WRAPPED IN PADDING IN A BOX. A collection of images of young people mostly 'boys' in New York London Zurich Istanbul Beirut Amsterdam and Venice made in the late 1960s. The photographer/author -- a retired American diplomat in his sixties -- became enamored with youth culture after attending a Beatles concert in 1965. In an attempt to understand what was going on -- 'A person is only old when he has lost his interest in young people' is the opening quote in the book -- he began making street portraits and interviewing his subjects. "The whole tenor of the book is one of innocence and appreciation rather than the prurient leering of a dirty old man. First and foremost this is a celebration of beauty and it is a valuable social document a unique snapshot of an era when it was especially exciting to be young. The subtle but unmistakable erotic undertones however add a personal level that is both beguiling and mysterious." Parr & Badger. Perhaps Berry's personal vision has made this book what Parr & Badger call a "valued . contribution to the gay photobook" but the photographer's stated goal of capturing the 'in' crowd at the 'in' gathering places wearing the 'in' clothing trends has produced an excellent example of early street style photography and a fascinating guide to fashions of the time. Photographs and text by Burton Y. Berry. From an edition limited to only 300 copies. Unpaginated 82 pages; 63 full-page b&w plates; 8.5 x 12 inches. Text in English. Printed by C.J.

1972réf. 24945Zurich: Burton Y. Berry 1972. Fine in photo-illustrated laminated boards. Highly sought after and prized since its discovery. First Edition. Quarto. Privately printed for Berry by C.J. Bucher Ltd. Lucerne in an edition of 300 copies. Preface and text by the photographer. 78 pages 63 full-bleed black and white photographs. One of the great unsung and virtually unknown photobooks of the 60s and 70s. The photographer Burton Y. Berry was a career diplomat and an obsessive collector. Influenced by attending a Beatles concert in 1965 Berry sought to understand and document youth culture by photographing mostly male youths in Zurich where he was stationed. While the idea was to capture the hairstyles of his subjects what unfolds page by page is nothing short of a forensic sweep of European youth fashion and culture at the apex of the sixties. The book could be dismissed as amateur hobby but Berry was an excellent photographer book designer and chronicler of his surroundings. Parr / Badger v3 80. [Zurich]: Burton Y. Berry unknown books

réf. 119527Cambridge: Cambridge University Press 1976. First edition of this classic work. Octavo original wrappers. From the library of Stephen Hawking with his name written on the front free end page. Stephen Hawking was a theoretical physicist cosmologist and author who was director of research at the Centre for Theoretical Cosmology at the University of Cambridge at the time of his death. Hawking's scientific works included a collaboration with Roger Penrose on gravitational singularity theorems in the framework of general relativity and the theoretical prediction that black holes emit radiation often called Hawking radiation. He was the first to set out a theory of cosmology explained by a union of the general theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. Hawking may be one of the most recognizable of theoretical physicists in part due to ALS which gradually paralyzed him over the decades. After the loss of his speech he was able to communicate through a speech-generating device—initially through use of a handheld switch and eventually by using a single cheek muscle. He is also well known since he achieved commercial success with several works of popular science in which he discussed his theories and cosmology in general. His book A Brief History of Time appeared on the Sunday Times bestseller list for a record-breaking 237 weeks. In near fine condition. A nice association from this giant in the world of theoretical physics. General relativity and quantum mechanics have become the two central pillars of theoretical physics. Moreover general relativity has important applications in astrophysics and high-energy particle physics. Covering the fundamentals of the subject Principles of Cosmology and Gravitation describes the universe as revealed by observations and presents a theoretical framework to enable important cosmological formulae to be derived and numerical calculations performed. Avoiding elaborate formal discussions the book presents a practical approach that focuses on the general theory of relativity. It examines different evolutionary models and the gravitational effects of massive bodies. The book also includes a large number of worked examples and problems half with solutions.
