1933ref. 029682Cambridge: Massacusetts Institute Of Technolkogy / Technology Press 1933. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Near Fine. X 189 Pp. Red Cloth Gilt. Near Fine Spine Gilt Dulled But Present Immaculate Hinges Tight. Mit Bookplate Of Computer Pioneer Willis H Ware With His Completed 1943 Reply To Mit To Update His Address Signed By Him At End. Ware Graduated From Mit In 1942 And Was Then Working At The Haseltine Corporation Prior To His Pioneering Work On Computers. Ware'S Participation In A Classified World War Ii Project To Identify Friendly Aircraft Led The Mathematician John Von Neumann To Recruit Him To Help Develop A Computer At The Institute For Advanced Study In Princeton N.J. In 1946. That Machine Was Not The First Digital Computer But It Was Based On A Set Of Design Ideas Described By Dr. Von Neumann That Were Broadly Influential - First On The Design Of Computers Built By Scientists Around The World And Then On An Early Ibm Computer Known As The 701. Many Of These Concepts Are Still Visible In The Structure Of Modern Computers And Smartphones. Mr. Ware Part Of A Small Group Of Engineers Working On That Machine Was The First To Try To Engineer Many Of The Components That Would Become Vital To Modern Computers. His Experience In Designing High-Speed Electronic Circuits During The War Was Essential To His Work On The Computer At The Institute For Advanced Study Said George Dyson A Historian Of The Project. Moving To Los Angeles He Worked For North American Aviation And Joined Rand In 1952. There He Managed The Department Where The Engineer Paul Baran Did Early Work On Packet-Switching A Technology That Was The Basis For The Internet. Mr. Ware Who Worked At The Rand Corporation For More Than 55 Years Was One Of The First People To Gain A Prescient View Of The Effect Computers Were Having On Society In Their Impact On Automation And The Threats They Posed To Privacy. "The Computer Will Touch Men Everywhere And In Every Way Almost On A Minute-To-Minute Basis" He Wrote In 1966. "Every Man Will Communicate Through A Computer Whatever He Does. It Will Change And Reshape His Life Modify His Career And Force Him To Accept A Life Of Continuous Change." While At Rand Mr. Ware Led An Early Pentagon Study Exploring Computer Security. Afterward He Was Asked By The Secretary Of Commerce To Lead A Committee To Address "Personal Privacy" In The Computer Era. Some Of Its Policy Recommendations Were Adopted In The Privacy Act Of 1974. Among Other Problems The Committee Dealt With The Increasing Reliance On "Universal Identifiers" Like Social Security Numbers. "Willis Ware Laid The Foundation For Modern Privacy Law. His Insight Was That In The Computer Age Organizations That Collected Private Information Would Have To Take Responsibility And Individuals Who Gave Up Personal Information Would Need To Get Rights."

Per Wikipedia Abraham Adrian Albert 1905 -1972 Was An American Mathematician. A First Generation American He Was Born In Chicago And Most Associated With That City. He Received His Bachelor Of Science In 1926 Masters In 1927 And Phd In 1928 At The Age Of 22. All Degrees Were Obtained From The University Of Chicago. He Married Around The Same Time As His Graduation. He Spent His Postdoctoral Year At Princeton University And Then From 1929 To 1931 He Was An Instructor At Columbia University. During This Period He Worked On Abelian Varieties And Their Endomorphism Algebras. He Returned To Princeton For The Opening Year Of The Institute For Advanced Study In 1933-34 And Spent Another Year In Princeton In 1961-62 As The First Director Of The Communications Research Division Of Ida The Institute For Defense Analyses. From 1931 To 1972 He Served On The Mathematics Faculty At The University Of Chicago Where He Became Chair Of The Mathematics Department In 1958 And Dean Of The Physical Sciences Division In 1961. In 1939 He Received The American Mathematical Society's Cole Prize In Algebra For His Work On Riemann Matrices. As A Research Mathematician He Was One Of The Principal Developers Of The Theory Of Linear Associative Algebras And As A Pioneer In The Development Of Linear Non-Associative Algebras Although All Of This Grew Out Of His Work On Endomorphism Algebras Of Abelian Varieties. He Is Best Known For His Work On The Albert-Brauer-Hasse-Noether Theorem On Finite-Dimensional Division Algebras Over Number Fields And As The Developer Of Albert Algebras Which Are Also Known As Exceptional Jordan Algebras. As An Applied Mathematician He Also Did Work For The Military During World War Ii And Thereafter. One Of His Most Notable Achievements Was His Groundbreaking Work On Cryptography. He Prepared A Manuscript "Some Mathematical Aspects Of Cryptography" For His Invited Address At A Meeting Of The American Mathematical Society In November 1941. The Theory That Developed From This Work Can Be Seen In Digital Communications Technologies. After Wwii He Became A Forceful Advocate Favoring Government Support For Research In Mathematics On A Par With Physical Sciences. He Served On Policy-Making Bodies At The Office Of Naval Research The United States National Research Council And The National Science Foundation That Funneled Research Grants Into Mathematics Giving Many Young Mathematicians Career Opportunities Previously Unavailable. Due To His Success In Helping To Give Mathematical Research A Sound Financial Footing He Earned A Reputation As A "Statesman For Mathematics." Albert Was Elected A Fellow Of The American Academy Of Arts And Sciences In 1968. Scientific American, Inc. hardcover
