First edition, part I [all published], viii, 86pp., with half-title, title page with cont. note stating "shortly will be published Part II. Mathl Theory Electricity...", disbound. "The subjects treated of in the following Tracts are, Laplace's Coefficients; the Investigation of the Figure of the Earth on the Hypothesis of its Original Fluidity; the Equations of Motion of a Rigid Body about its Center of Gravity; and the Application of these Equations to the case of the Earth. The first of these subjects should be familiar to every Mathematical Student, both for its own sake, and also on account of the many branches of Physical Science to which it is applicable. The second subject is extremely interesting as a physical theory, bearing upon the original state of the Earth and of the planetary bodies; it is also well worthy of attention on account of the important and extensive observations which have been made in order to verify it."?Preface.

Crumb and others; additional material addresses nuclear weapons desertification permaculture solar power community finance and R. Crumb's "The Final Solution." 5 No. 21 Spring 1979. The cover announces "GENETIC TOXICITY: New chemicals may have already done more damage to the human gene pool than nuclear energy ever will" introducing articles by Steven Klein and Stewart Brand on mutagenic chemicals human DNA herbicides pregnancy and environmental pollutants; the issue also includes R.

Opens with "The Real News from Three Mile Island" Stewart Brand's interview with former astronaut Russell Schweickart on reactor damage possible meltdown scenarios and the public information failures surrounding the March 1979 accident; further articles address civil liberties Sacramento watershed management tree sitting personal computer networks information warfare Arctic travel and underground finance. 7 No. 23 Fall 1979. The ocean issue combines John Todd's "Ocean Arks" George Putz's "The Ocean Full Wilderness Empty Wilderness" Phil Conkling on the global carbon cycle R. Crumb's "A Short History of America" material on ocean power fisheries boats navigation and The Whole Sea Catalog with Brand's editorial insistence that ocean politics begin in local watersheds. 8 No. 24 Winter 1979/80. Antler's "FACTORY" supplies the principal text and R. Crumb the cover image of an industrial worker beneath a nuclear cloud; related contents address factory production biological diversity solar architecture ocean farming hospital labor money communications computer networks electronic defense and the contested politics of the cover itself. Across these issues the Whole Earth editorial model becomes a forum in which back to the land practice encounters nuclear engineering cybernetics genetics media access and institutional power. Bateson's account of the "pattern which connects" supplies a conceptual vocabulary for relations among mind ecology and communication while the Three Mile Island interview records Schweickart discussing reactor damage before the accident's full consequences had been settled. The sequence also preserves the publication's unusual adjacency of technical manuals book reviews cartoons scientific disputes political reporting financial statements and reader correspondence allowing solar heaters computer networks desertification maps roadkill manuals plutonium poetry and federal energy policy to occupy the same editorial field. Brand founded the quarterly with proceeds from the Whole Earth Catalog; it continued until 1985 when it was merged with the Whole Earth Software Review to form Whole Earth Review. Moderate rubbing toning staining cover creasing and edge wear; no detached leaves substantial annotations or modifications. Overall good condition. unknown
