FIRST PRINTING ANNOUNCING THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE TRANSISTOR A DISCOVERY THAT INITIATED THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AGE. / "In 1947 John Bardeen and Walter Brattain working at Bell Telephone Laboratories were trying to understand the nature of the electrons at the interface between a metal and a semiconductor. They realized that by making two point contacts very close to one another they could make a three terminal device - the first "point contact" transistor. They quickly made a few of these transistors and connected them with some other components to make an audio amplifier. This audio amplifier was shown to chief executives at Bell Telephone Company who were very impressed that it didn't need time to "warm up" like the heaters in vacuum tube circuits. They immediately realized the power of this new technology. This invention was the spark that ignited a huge research effort in solid state electronics. Bardeen and Brattain received the Nobel Prize in Physics 1956 together with William Shockley "for their researches on semiconductors and their discovery of the transistor effect." – Nobel Prize Committee. / In "The Transistor" 1948 is the schematic diagram showing the construction of the germanium triode or transistor a semi-conducting device which could act as an oscillator or an amplifier thereby replacing larger bulky less efficient vacuum tubes. The longer 1949 paper includes this same diagram but also contains a cutaway microphotograph of the transistor. Research by Bardeen and Brattain led them to the discovery that electron flows on the surface of a semi-conducting surface initially silicon and germanium may be modulated and controlled by "doping" the crystal with specific quantities and depositions of conducting elements. Hence was born the technology of microelectronics by employing layers of "dirty sand" to build the complex electronic circuitry that we use every day today. "The transistor revolutionized the electronics industry allowing the Information Age to occur and made possible the development of almost every modern electronic device from telephones to computers to missiles. Bardeen's developments in superconductivity which won him his second Nobel are used in medical advances such as CAT scans and MRI." – Wikip. Bardeen is the only person to have won the Nobel Prize in physics twice. The first time was for the invention of the transistor awarded in 1956. The second time was in 1972 with Leon N. Cooper and John Robert Schrieffer for a fundamental theory of conventional superconductivity known as the "BCS theory." / With: Richard P. Feynman "Relativistic Cut-Off for Classical Electrodynamics." – pp. 1430-1438. Vol. 74 no. 10. Nov 15 1948. Feynman's first paper on quantum electrodynamics. / Norman Origins of cyberspace 450.

sehr guter Zustand - Die nach einer Comicserie entstandene amerikanische Fernsehserie The Walking Dead zählt zu den erfolgreichsten Fernsehserien der Welt. Der Erfolg der Serie resultiert aus der untergründigen, teilweise aber auch explizit gemachten Thema-tisierung gesellschaftlicher Krisenphänomene und grundlegender Sinn- und Wertfragen. Das vorliegende Buch versucht sich an einer Interpretation der Serie, die diese Fragen an philosophischen und theologischen Grundfragen und Konzepten spiegelt. Gleichzeitig werden Schlüsse auf das Weltgefüh, der Zeitgenossen gezogen, denn das postapokalyptische Szenario zeigt sich als Anfrage an gegenwärtiges Denken und Handeln: Welche Hoffnungen, Ängste und Fragen der Menschen heute spiegeln sich in der Serie wider? Und welche ethischen Grundlagen und Sinnkonstruktionen tragen oder versagen in der Welt des 21. Jahrhunderts, in der Tribalismus und Nationalismus wiederkehren, gesellschaftliche Spaltungen sich verschärfen und ganze Staaten zerfallen? Die Serie zeigt sich an vielen Punkten als Brennspiegel heutigen Weltgefühls. ISBN 9783826065958

1839055027Kostantiniyye Constantinople - Istanbul: Takvîm-i Vekâyi. AH 1255 1839. Soft cover. Very Good. Original newspaper taken from a volume. Folio. 425 x 28 cm. In Ottoman script Old Turkish with Arabic letters. 5 p. Extremely rare early issue of this first official newspaper of the Ottoman Empire after the proclamation of Reform Tanzîmât in 1839 informed Daguerre's new and weird invention "photography" as it would be called in the 1850s to the Ottoman peoples and readers. The article reads: "It is the talk of the town steam engines have been able to run on rails in factories in recent years. Meanwhile a man carefully focused on his thoughts so much and the craft turned into a strange art and finally a coquettish mirror surface appeared. This skillful Frenchman named Daguerre drew the lines of objects by reflecting the sunlight with the methods of the different science of art he learned drew the contours of the objects and gave 20 years secretly and openly to the formation of this strange art. Finally he reached the goal and this event won the appreciation and admiration of everyone. This is to say the image of the object in the form of a large or small box free from light is pictured inside by passing through the glass in front of it. In order for the reflected picture to be captured on a surface some chemicals must be prepared. Daguerre has achieved this mix based on his experience. This substance applied on the plate is called iodine. After the plate is kept in the vapor of the iodine for a few minutes it is immediately placed in the dark box and the image passing through the window of the box is pictured for five minutes. Considering that some of the things that should be hidden are captured like this it will be understood what a valuable invention this is.". In the continuation of the article it is written that an Englishman named Talbot Henry Fox Talbot found the same thing with almost the same processes ! but Daguerre had taken pictures before. Takvim-i Vekâyi was the first fully Turkish-language newspaper. It was launched in 1831 by Sultan Mahmud II taking over from the Moniteur ottoman as the Official Gazette of the Ottoman Empire. With the beginning of the Tanzimat reform period Takvim-i Vekayi produced versions in multiple language editions. It ceased publication in 1878 resuming in 1891-2 before being closed again. It resumed in 1908 until around 1922. In the 1831-1878 period it published a total of 2119 issues - an average of slightly less than one a week. <br/> <br/> Takvîm-i Vekâyi., [AH 1255] paperback
