19522294Washington DC: U.S. Department of Commerce Office of Technical Services 1952. First Edition. Near Fine. Near Fine copy in original orange paper wraps with spine lighly sunned. Internally about Fine. Quarto measuring 7.75 x 10 inches and collating 2 41 pages: complete. Rare surviving copy of the first survey of electronic digital computers in the U.S. organized by pioneering mathematician Mina Rees. The only first edition on the market this is a title that has never before sold at auction and is listed by OCLC at only 10 institutions.<br/><br/>In her introduction to the survey Rees notes that "Until recently all commercially available general-purpose digital computers were large and cost many hundreds of thousands of dollars. Within the past year however a number of manufacturers have smaller more compact usually slower automatic computers for sale at less than one hundred thousand dollars." Because this change opened the door to a wider variety of businesses and firms accessing computers Rees points to the symposium as being timely and necessary. In this space and this historic moment scientists mathematicians manufacturers and government agencies could consider how to continue improving and reducing cost on the machines; and they could consider their wide applicability across fields. Rees herself a luminary who became the first woman president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science is featured in this survey among other notables including Albert Auerbach and Richard E Sprague. The papers include work the MINIAC the Elecom and the Circle Computer. These were the first of their kind as was the symposium itself. Complete with over 20 black and white photos charts and diagrams it is an important and rare piece documenting computers' shift into the necessary and ubiquitous technology they are today.<br/><br/>Origins of Cyberspace 853.

19642120glsAnnapolis Maryland: Naval Institute Press 1964. Octavo navy blue cloth hardcover red spine label gilt letters & illus. to upper cover xv 555 pp. Near-Fine in a Very Good dust jacket with lightly rubbed edges and sticker residue to upper cover. From dust jacket: Originally published in 1937 this classic study of naval strategy tactics and ship design from the Greco-Persian Wars to the Campaign of Actium continues to be acknowledged as the best work on the subject to be written. With its companion volume Naval Warfare under Oars it offers a comprehensive examination of the principles of early naval warfare principles that have remained valid through the centuries despite dramatic technological advances in weaponry and ship design. Although much of the control of battle has now moved from the admiral on the bridge to the computers in the combat information center the basic rationale for the existence of a naval force -- to control what happens at sea -- has not changed since the Venetians and Spaniards first engaged their enemies on the water. And a thorough understanding of strategic principles as presented here is as vital today as ever. The author Admiral William L. Rodgers spent years preparing this classic work. In addition to comprehensive descriptions of individual campaigns and battle plans he offers a useful analysis of the political and economic conditions that led belligerent nations to war. His skillful reconstruction of the designs of ancient ships for which no records have survived makes a significant contribution to historical record. Naval Institute Press, (1964). hardcover books
