Original black cloth blocked in green; xvi 437 pp. one ad leaf. 3 inch crack in rear endpaper but a very good copy. Illustrations in black red blue and green. There is an inscription on the front endpaper indicating its use by the War Office Selection Board in 1942. The Board was a scheme by British Army psychiatrists to discover and develop officer candidates and Moreno's sociometrics were influential in Eric Trist and Wilfred Bion's experiment of Regimental Nomination where units were encouraged to nominate candidates.<br/>Linton C. Freeman identified four defining properties of social network analysis: 1 It involves the intuition that links among social actors are important. 2 It is based on the collection and analysis of data that record social relations that link actors. 3 It draws heavily on graphic imagery to reveal and display the patterning of those links. And 4 it develops mathematical and computational models to describe and explain those patterns.<br/>He wrote "Until the 1930s however no one had used all four properties at the same time. Modern social network analysis was introduced by a psychiatrist Jacob L. Moreno and a psychologist Helen Jennings. They conducted elaborate research first among the inmates of a prison later in a reform school for girls. Moreno and Jennings named their approach sociometry." A chapter on psychological geography anticipates the work of the Lettrist International.<br/><br/>"Moreno founded psychodrama and pioneered group psychotherapy. Apart from its psychiatric and sociological significance this work contained some of the earliest graphic depictions of social networks— data visualization methods later applied to numerous other disciplines. These images were later called sociograms." Garrison-Morton-Norman 7700. <br/><br/> Nervous and Mental Disease Publishing Co hardcover books

Fourth edition enlarged the first to include Kosmichen Physik of the famous physics textbook of Mathias Pouillet Elements de physique experimentale et de meteorologie 1827-30 translated and substantially enlarged and revised by Johann Muller a physics and technology professor at the University of Freiburg. Muller's version in turn became a standard physics textbook in the German-speaking world and went through a number of editions remaining in use through the early 20th century. "Muller's most significant textbook the Lehrbuch first appeared as Pouillet's Lehrbuch der Physik und Meteorologie a 'free adaptation' of the 1837 edition of C.S. Pouillet's Elements de Physique experimentale et de Meteorologie. Muller'sinnovations included numerous woodcuts inserted directly into the text. . .The illustrations of the apparatus were particularly useful for the mechanician. The book was initially styled for the nonphysics major. He supplied the derivations of mathematical formulas and stressed mechanical theorems. Muller incorporated Gauss's works on magnetism for the first time and recast the chapters on galvanism light and meteorology. Each of the seven editions that were published during his lifetime underwent considerable emendation. A third volume Lehrbuch der Kosmicschen Physik based upon Muller's own observations was added in 1856." –D.S.B. IX p. 566. F. Vieweg, 1852, 1853, 1856. hardcover books
