189694972Paris, Felix Alcan, 1896, in-8, front, XVI-415 pp, 2 cartes depl, Demi-chagrin vert, dos richement fleuronné, marque de prix sur le plat supérieur [Ville de Paris, Prix municipal], tranches dorées, Troisième édition française, revue et corrigée d'après la quatorzième édition anglaise (?Physiography, An Introduction to the Study of Nature, édition originale 1877). La traduction de Georges Lamy (né en 1857), précédemment parue en 1882 et 1892, comporte des adaptations : les deux chapitres sur la Tamise ont été remplacés par deux autres sur la Seine; les deux cartes ainsi proposées par Lamy ont été dressées par lui-même, et sont gravées par Erhard (Geslot). L'une illustre l'hydrographie et le nivellement des bassins de la Seine et de la Somme; l'autre la géologie du bassin de la Seine. Thomas Henry Huxley (1825-1895), "naturaliste emblématique de la science victorienne" est relativement peu connu du grand public français, qui connait mieux son petit-fils, Aldous. Il joua pourtant un rôle essentiel dans la défense et la diffusion de la théorie de l'évolution, ce qui lui valut le surnom de "bouledogue de Darwin". Ses textes ont surtout été diffusés en France par Émile Alglave, directeur de la Bibliothèque scientifique internationale et de la Revue des cours scientifiques (Revue Rose). Exemplaire du prix décerné par les Écoles communales de Paris, avec armes de la ville sur le plat supérieur et étiquette de prix au contreplat : pour Rachel Deneufplanche, de l'école de fille de la rue Flocon. Jean-Charles Geslot. « L'édition française à l'heure de la science anglaise dans la deuxième moitié du XIXe siècle : Thomas Henry Huxley? », Philosophia Scientiæ, vol. 22-1, no. 1, 2018, pp. 63-80 [en ligne].

19651128Boston: Beacon Press 1965. First edition. Hardcover. Near fine/Near fine. Inscribed by Appleman on the front free endpaper: "For Don & Mary Alice fondly -- Phil." Uncommon signed and uncommon in hardcover in general. A book about the specter of overpopulation that predates Paul Ehrlich's The Population Bomb by three years and seems likely to have influenced it not least because of the similar title. The title is probably also an allusion to Silent Spring. With a foreword by Julian Huxley. From the jacket: "Until the fundamental problem--that of population control--is met Dr. Appleman stresses gifts and loans and programs to help underdeveloped areas increase food production and step up industrialization are only stopgaps." The book examines stances by both the Catholic church and Communists along the way. Appleman is perhaps best known as a poet and Darwin scholar and the entwining of the two; this is his first book. A near fine copy in blue paperboard and cloth spine with just a touch of rubbing to spine ends; in a near fine jacket. Beacon Press hardcover

960831964: William Morrow & Company New York. First edition of Huxley's authoritative report on the rapidly changing political climate of post-colonial East Africa. Octavo original half cloth illustrated with maps and drawings by Jonathan Kingdon. Presentation copy inscribed by the author on the title page "For Joe Ferrier with my best wished Elspeth Huxley." Laid in is the original typed transmittal letter an autograph card and photograph of Huxley; all three signed by her to Ferrier. The recipient Joe Ferrier was a lifelong fan and pen pal of Huxley's. They often exchanged letters books and article clippings between England and the United States. Near fine in a near fine price-clipped dust jacket. Jacket design by Harsh-Finegold. Huxley states in the present volume: "Writing about modern Africa is like trying to sketch a galloping horse that is out of sight before you have sharpened your pencil. But it is just because so much is happening - because the scene sparkles with new hopes and plans because nothing is static and nothing seems impossible.'for in truth' as Winston Churchill wrote in 1907 'the problems of East Africa are the problems of the world.'"
