Saubere Vorlesungsmitschrift der einführenden medizinischen Lehrveranstaltung an der Universität Innsbruck, gehalten von Franz Karl Karpe, der von 1818 bis zu seinem Tod Professor für Theoretische Medizin bzw. 1823/24 und 1833 Rektor der Medizinischen Universität Innsbruck war. Im Vorlesungsverzeichnis für das Jahr 1834 scheint die Lehrveranstaltung auf unter dem Titel "Ueber Encyclopädie und Methodologie, als eine Einleitung in das medicinisch-chirurgische Studium, ferner über theoretische Medicin, nämlich: Physiologie, allgemeine Pathologie und allgemeine Therapie; dann über Diätetik, medicinische und chirurgische Arzneimittel-Lehre und Receptirkunst, nach Nushard". Grundlage für die Vorlesung war das zweibändige Lehrbuch "Theoretische Medicin für Wundärzte" (Prag, 1824-26) des Mediziners Franz Willibald Nusshard (1785-1847), der während der Choleraepidemie von 1831/32 gemeinsam mit Julius Vincenz von Krombholz die Lazarette in Prag leitete und 1843 zum Direktor aller dortigen Krankenhäuser und Versorgungsinstitutionen ernannt wurde. - Die Mitschrift zur Physiologie, Pathologie und Therapie (311 SS.) ohne separates Titelblatt. Mit 18 SS. über Heilquellen in Tirol und Vorarlberg, eine Aufzählung, die sich in der Dissertation des Mediziners Johann Georg Gmeiner (Wien 1838) wiederfindet. - Papierbedingt etwas gebräunt; vereinzelte Randläsuren; wenige Seiten mit leichem Wurmfraß nahe der rechten oberen Ecke.

First edition, 8vo (190 x 120 mm), vi, [2], 74pp., without the map, later quarter calf by Birdsall & Son, Northampton, slightly rubbed, red morocco spine label lettered in gilt. Charles Labelye (1705-1753) was a Swiss civil engineer and mathematician. Moving to England in the 1720s and receiving patronage from the Duke of Bedford and Earl of Pembroke, he is best known for his work on the original Westminster Bridge. He was invited by the Duke of Bedford and the Corporation of the Fens to compile a full and detailed report which was undertaken during periods of special leave granted him by the Westminster Bridge Commission. Provenance: With the armorial bookplate of Lord Esm? S. Gordon. Skepton, 815, 816.
33 original black-and-white NASA photographs (gelatin silver prints), ca. 255 x 203 mm each, with extensive official captions and NASA logo printed on the back in purple ink. Stored within black cardboard binder, photographs in individual transparent sleeves. A collection of original gelatin silver prints showing the surface of the planet Mars, taken by the American robotic space probes Mariner 6, 7, and 9: five photographs taken by Mariner 6 and seven taken by Mariner 7 (1969); the remaining 21 taken by Mariner 9 in 1971-72. All are extensively annotated on the reverse with NASA's printed official photo captions. - Mariner 6 and 7 flew over Mars' equator and south polar regions, analysing the atmosphere and the surface with remote sensors and relaying to Earth hundreds of grayscale pictures. The mission goals were to study the surface and atmosphere of Mars in close flybys, so as to establish the basis for future investigations and to demonstrate and develop technologies required for future Mars missions. Two years later, NASA launched Mariner 8 and 9 - the former crashing into the Atlantic immediately, leaving the single surviving orbiter to perform a mission designed for two. Upon its arrival, NASA scientists were further dismayed to find the planet obscured by thick dust storms. Nevertheless, the mission turned out a complete success: after the dust had settled, the probe managed to send back excellent pictures of the surface. After 349 days in orbit, Mariner 9 had transmitted no fewer than 7329 images, covering 85% of Mars' surface. The images revealed river beds, craters, massive extinct volcanoes (such as Olympus Mons, the largest known volcano in the Solar System), canyons, evidence of wind and water erosion and deposition, weather fronts, and fogs. Mars' moons, Phobos and Deimos, were also photographed. The findings from the mission underpinned the later Viking program. - The exploration of Mars continues: the summer 2020 launch window saw the United Arab Emirates send an orbiter on the Al Amal (Hope) Mars Mission. It arrived in February 2021 to study the Martian atmosphere and weather.

Professor. Obermayer gelang erstmals die Darstellung von gefärbten Eiweiß-Diazo-Verbindungen und die Auffindung von Nucleoalbumin im Harn, dessen prognostische Bedeutung für verschiedene Nierenerkrankungen er erkannte" (DBE).

1928ref. ABC_50475Iran 1928. Oblong album 24.5 x 29.6 cm. Mid-19th-century bright blue faux-leather the front board features a pictorial on-lay within a rectangular frame the illustration depicts a young woman in traditional costume holding a large ceramic vessel. The joints are laced through onto 2 supports. With 19 black and white photographs ca. 23.1 x 17.1 cm on thick dark blue/black paper. 9 ll. Collection of 19 engineering photographs taken in Iran dating from ca. 1928 to 1930 CE. The majority of the images are annotated with the year 1308 AH 1929-1930 CE while only photograph 7 is dated 1307 AH 1928-1929 CE.The album documents large-scale engineering works and urban modernisation in Iran during the early years of the Pahlavi dynasty 1925-1941 under Reza Shah Pahlavi 1878-1944. In this period cities such as Tabriz underwent significant restructuring and infrastructural development as part of broader state-led reforms.The photographs depict surveying activities including measuring instruments mounted on tripods uniformed officials and extensive reconstruction works. Several photographs are identifiable as views of Tabriz including the development of the Gaji Gate Darb-e Gajil in December 1929 Ahrap Ahrab Street and Munjam Street under construction. Other views show street levelling and widening works illustrating the transformation of older urban quarters into broader modern thoroughfares.Further noteworthy subjects include railway works and one photograph taken in Jafarabad shows several men wearing a combination of traditional clothing including papakha-style headgear and Western clothing reflecting the broader cultural transition of the period. The present work therefore stands as an informative visual record of early 20th-century Iranian engineering urban renewal and state modernisation.With some glue staining to the dark blue paper on several pages. A few photographs show minor marginal wear not affecting the images themselves. The final photograph is not mounted on the album paper but on a separate piece of card and is loosely inserted. Otherwise in good condition.l Cf.

ref. 7976Four books from the research library of world-renowned expert in soil dynamics and earthquake engineering Robert V. Whitman. Whitman earned both his masters and doctoral degrees in engineering from MIT where he then taught for over 40 years and remained an active member of the MIT community for many more years as a professor emeritus. Whitman worked with Professor Donald Taylor during his doctoral studies. Their work on slope stability under dynamic loading established the basis for the "Newmark sliding block method" for estimating earthquake-induced ground displacements. In 1981 he presented the Terzaghi Lecture on risk analysis in geotechnical engineering at the American Society of Civil Engineer’s National Convention. He won the Terzaghi Award for outstanding contributions to knowledge in the fields of soil mechanics subsurface and earthwork engineering in 1987. Much of his later research focused on a methodology for estimating losses from earthquakes and he led the committee that developed a computer software called HAZUS which FEMA expanded to include floods and hurricanes.
