Contemporary half cloth bindings. Two landmark papers in the history of cosmology: All first editions. In 'Über die Krümmung des Raumes' Friedman derived the non-stationary solutions to Einstein's field equations. Einstein quickly responded in a short comment 'Bemerkung' in which he expressed his suspicion of such a model of the Universe and apparently pointed out an error in Friedman's calculations. However Friedman now wrote a letter to Einstein in which he enclosed his full calculations. Shortly after this Einstein submitted a short notice Notiz in which he admitted that he himself had performed a calculation error and that Friedman's solutions which shed new light on the matter were valid. Friedman's expanding universe model was corroborated by Edwin Hubble's red-shift observations in 1929. In 'Über die Möglichkeit einer Welt mit konstanter negativer Krümmung des Raumes' Friedman derived the Friedman-equations and demonstrated that he had command of all three Friedman-models describing positive zero and negative curvature respectively nearly a decade before the independent discoveries of the same models by Lemaître Robertson and Walker. hardcover
1928réf. 28363Berlin Gruyter u. Co. 1928. 4to. Orig. printed orange wrappers. Offprint/Sonderabdruck aus Sitzungsberichten.pp. 1-6. Fine fresh copy. First edition in the rare Offprint still called "Abdruck" but having separate printed title and separate pagination. See Weil: 162 where this is not mentioned.Weil No. 162.The early Offprints from "Sitzungsberichten." are called "Sonderabdruck" up to Weil No.165 including this. From Weil 166 they are called "Sonderausgabe.". - Before 161 up to 160 the Offprints do not have separate title and pagination the pagination follows the numbering in the periodical. From 166 the Offprint has both separate printed title and pagination. - So Weil Nos 161-165 is still "Abdruck" but with separate title and pagination. These facts are not mentioned in the bibliographies. unknown

1941réf. 46477Tucuman Argentina 1941. Royal8vo. Orig. printed wrappers. Offprint from "Revista. Universidad Nacional de Tucuman" Series A Matematicas y Fisica Teorica Vol. 2 Diciembre de 1941 Nos 1 y 2. Pp. 11-15. Fine and clean. First edition of a scarce paper in the offprint version. The paper "represents the basis of the one written by the same author in collaboration with Wolfgang Pauli in 1943 in which by following analogous lines the proof of the non-existence of regular particle-type solutions was generalized to the case of cilyndrical geometries in Kaluza-Klein theory Einstein & Pauli 1943. Besides other generalizations were subsequently presented. The non-existence of such solutions in classical unified field theory was undoubtedly an important criterion leading Einstein's investigations."Galvagno and Giribet."In his search for a unified field theory that could undercut quantum mechanics Einstein considered five-dimensional classical Kaluza-Klein theory. He studied this theory most intensively during the years 1938-1943. One of his primary objectives was finding a non-singular particle solution. In the full theory this search got frustrated and in the x5-independent theory Einstein together with Pauli argued it would be impossible to find these structures."

Entire volume: VIII1032 pp. 6 plates. First edition of all 5 papers. In "Relation between elastic behaviour and specific heat of solid bodies with monatomic molecules" Einstein comments Sutherlands importent paper in Philosophical Magazine from 1910. Sutherland made the importent remark that the infrared eigenfrequencies of solid bodies have their origin possibly in the elastic vibrations of these bodies. Einstein impressed by this remark adds that electrically charged ions are the sources of optical vibrations whreas elastic vibrations are caused by the mutual motion of the entire molecule. Hence he prefers to test the hypothesis of Sutherland by solid bodies which are composed of monatomic molecules."Lanczos. - Weil Nos 38 39 this with an asterix denoting major work40 1-2 and 41. unknown

M. S. Blackett' see below with Blackett's ownership inscription in blue ink to front free endpaper.First English edition with a preface by Einstein of this work arguing for nuclear disarmament translated by the gardener novelist and anarchist Edward Byams this copy from the library of Nobel Prize-winning physicist Patrick Blackett whose own work is discussed at length in the book.Jules Moch 1893-1985 worked as a French Resistance organiser during the war later became a senior minister in several post-war governments and was France's delegate to the UN Disarmament Committee for 1951-1960. It was this latter role that informed the principles he sets forth in Human Folly which argue for multilateral nuclear disarmament. Divided into two parts the first examines the destructive capacities of modern warfare before tracing the recent history of disarmament negotiations. Moch attempts to represent both Soviet and Western positions with fairness concluding that the divisions between the two are gradually narrowing. Though he does not regard the situation as entirely hopeless he presents it as one of pressing urgency. The preface by Albert Einstein one of Moch's most eminent supporters makes clear peace can only arise from political will: 'Those who do not believe in the possibility of the attainment of a lasting and assured peace or have not the courage to act accordingly are ripe for destruction' p. 8. Provenance: front free endpaper with the ownership inscription of Patrick Blackett 1897-1974 with his occasional underlining throughout and one word 'Target' in pencil to the top of p. 10. Blackett was awarded the 1948 Nobel Prize in Physics for his pioneering work in nuclear physics and cosmic radiation including experiments demonstrating nuclear transmutation and important early research into the positron. During the Second World War he headed Operational Research at the Admiralty where his statistical criticism of the RAF blanket bombing campaigns led to increasing ostracism from the military authority. His opposition to mass destruction later informed his belief that Britain should not develop nuclear weapons. Combined with his openly socialist views this attracted the attention of MI5 and led to his inclusion on George Orwell's list of alleged 'crypto-communists' contributing to his marginalisation by the post-war Labour government. Blackett's book The Military and Economic Consequences of Atomic Energy 1948 is discussed at length by Moch pp. 117-19. Written before the development of second-generation thermonuclear weapons Blackett had estimated that thousands of atomic bombs would be required to destroy the United States or the Soviet Union when at the time only a few dozen existed. As Moch observes on p. 121 however 'today a few dozen thermonuclear bombs would produce the same results'. It is particularly notable that Blackett has not annotated the passages explicitly discussing his work. This copy of Human Folly is offered with Blackett's pamphlet The Atom and the Charter which discusses the extent to which 'the advent of atomic bombs necessitates changes in the procedure for the application of sanctions under the Charter of the United Nations Organisation' issued by Victor Gollancz and the socialist Fabian Society on behalf of the Association of Scientific Workers a scientific trade union of which Blackett was president. hardcover
