1948réf. 46404739Philadelphia & London, Sauders, 1948-53 ; 2 volumes in-8, cartonnage bradel toile rouge, dos orné, jaquettes conservées. (Cartonnage d’éditeur) XV pp., 804 pp. - XXX pp., 842 pp.ÉDITION ORIGINALE de chacune des parties du célèbre Rapport Kinsey, l’ouvrage scientifique le plus lu du XXe siècle. Il s’agit peut-être de l’ouvrage qui, dans l’histoire récente, a eu la plus grande influence sur notre mode de vie. Les thèses qui y sont développées sont, de nos jours encore, sujettes à de vives polémiques dans tout le monde occidental. Les auteurs étudient les pratiques, les orientations et les préférences sexuelles en remettant en cause toutes les normes que la morale et la science avaient jusqu’alors considérées comme la nature de l’homme. Un relativisme qui traite la fidélité conjugale ou l’hétérosexualité comme des pratiques parmi d’autres plutôt que comme une norme incontestable. Les réactions que cet ouvrage suscita dans l’Amérique des années 50 contribua à sa vaste diffusion dans de nombreuses langues et à en faire la base scientifique de tous les mouvements de libération sexuelle et de défense des minorités sexuelles jusqu’à nos jours.Usure aux bords et insolation aux dos des jaquettes, manque de papier à un angle de la jaquette du premier tome, sinon beaux exemplaires.
1928réf. 62236Macon County Tacoma & Seattle WA: Timber Views Co. ca. 1928. Six silver gelatin photographs sized 11 x 14 in. on thick glossy photo stock photographer’s imprint negative no. and location w/in negative at lower fore-edge slight curvature to corners still a very good set. An exceptional group of six original Darius Kinsey photographs capturing the construction project of Lake Cushman Tacoma Dam Site No. 2 engineering crew work crews massive log rafts floating on the lake as well as the finished Tacoma Dam No. 1. The Lake Cushman dam was first proposed in 1919 as the demand for power in Tacoma had vastly expanded during World War I and under direction of Ira S. Davisson the Tacoma Power Co. finished Dam no. 1 by 1926 using a concrete arch gravity and embankment design diverting water to a power house on Hood Canal. The second smaller Cushman Dam No. 2 construction as depicted here in these photos was begun and formed the small 150-acre Kokanee lake with this power house setting further down on the Hood Canal. The construction of the Tacoma Narrows transmission line stretching a mile and a quarter between towers in Tacoma and Gig Harbor were the longest in the World at the time. The Skokomish Tribal Council filed suit originally in 1930 over the destruction of their salmon run treaty rights and destruction of the salmon runs. These lawsuits spanned the next 70 years as the tribe claimed that not only had the project wiped out fishing/hunting grounds but also unlawfully enriched the City of Tacoma without lawful recompense of the resources to the Skokomish. January 13 2009 the City of Tacoma and the Skokomish Indian Tribe officially settled the dispute calling for the tribe to receive an up-front cash payment 7.25 percent of the value of electric production from Cushman Site No. 2 and transofer of $ 23 million in land including Camp Cushman the 500-acre Nalley Ranch and Saltwater Park. Darius Kinsey 1869-1945 had originally partnered with Alfred Kinsey in late 1889 but by 1896 had established a studio at Sedro Woolley north of Seattle and would continue to operate off an on together with photographic expeditions until 1906 when Darius opened his own studio in Seattle. His images would later capture the operations of the U.S. Spruce Production Division during World War I. In 1919 the couple changed the name of their studio to Timber Views Co. and were active commercial photographers in the Puget Sound Region including for the Lake Cushman projects.

1953réf. 21049Philadelphia: W. B. Saunders Company 1953. First edition of the author's classic work. Octavo original maroon cloth. Boldly signed by Alfred C. Kinsey and Wardell B. Pomeroy on the front free endpaper. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Sexual Behavior in the Human Female was originally published in 1953 five years after the male volume. The material presented in this book was derived from personal interviews with nearly 6000 women; from studies in sexual anatomy physiology psychology and endocrinology. The book presents data on the incidence and frequency with which women participate in various types of sexual activity. The authors show how such factors as age decade of birth and religious adherence are reflected in patterns of sexual behavior. Some measure of the social significance of the various types of sexual behavior is provided. The authors make comparisons of female and male sexual activities and investigate the factors which account for the similarities and differences between female and male patterns of behavior. As before Kinsey documented an enormous gap between social attitudes and actual practices. Also as before the book was a media sensation but this time the counterattack was so ferocious including a congressional investigation of his financial support that the Rockefeller Foundation terminated its funding. Kinsey’s health deteriorated under the strain of public attack and uncertainty about the future of his institute. He suffered from heart disease and after a brief hospitalization for pneumonia died in Bloomington on August 25 1956. In his own mind his principal legacy was to have brought scientific rigor to the study of human sexuality. But as his biographer James H. Jones points out Kinsey was not only a scientist; he was a reformer who sought to rid himself of his personal sexual demons while at the same time revolutionizing the repressive society in which he had grown up.
