18635734San Salvador 1863. Very good. 4pp. on a bifolium. Folio. Portion of lower margin torn away otherwise light edge wear. A fascinating and rather lengthy anti-Barrios address by his conservative opponents and would-be deposers in El Salvador. José Gerardo Barrios Espinoza was elected president of El Salvador in 1860 following several stints as interim head of state. The present work attacks Barrios' character the "abyss of evils" that he has brought upon the country and compares him unfavorably with every other Central American leader. The final page announces that the signers are joining the invasion of the country by Guatemala and its president Rafael Carrera and defends their choice as one necessary to rid El Salvador of its liberal leader. The Guatemalan and conservative Salvadoran forces succeeded in ousting Barrios in October 1863 nine months after the printing of this document. Very scarce OCLC locates just one copy at the National Library of Chile. unknown

198487970New York: Harper & Row 1984. First Edition Stated First Printing Stated. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Jerry Bauer Author's photograph. x 228 2 pages. Preface to the Series Alfred P. Sloan Series. Index. The Nobel Prize-winning microbiologist describes his major scientific work recalls the colleagues and students of his long career and reflects on his triumphs failings doubts and beliefs. Salvador Edward Luria born Salvatore Luria; August 13 1912 - February 6 1991 was an Italian microbiologist later a naturalized U.S. citizen. He won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1969 with Max Delbrück and Alfred Hershey for their discoveries on the replication mechanism and the genetic structure of viruses. Salvador Luria also showed that bacterial resistance to viruses phages is genetically inherited. In 1959 he became chair of Microbiology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology MIT. At MIT he switched his research focus from phages to cell membranes and bacteriocins. His lab discovered that bacteriocins achieve this impairment by forming holes in the cell membrane allowing ions to flow through and destroy the electrochemical gradient of cells. In 1972 he became chair of The Center for Cancer Research at MIT. In addition to the Nobel Prize Luria received a number of awards. He was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1959. He was named a member of the National Academy of Sciences in 1960. In 1964 he was elected to the American Philosophical Society. In 1969 he was awarded the Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize from Columbia University with Max Delbrück co-winner with Luria of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1969. He received the National Medal of Science in 1991. Derived from a Kirkus review: S. E. Luria's autobiography adds another gem to the Sloan Foundation series. The molecular biologist and Nobel laureate writes with a crispness and concision that mirrors his outlook and his work. He is proud of "reductionist" science; he is committed to a life of reason and political action. Early on he confides also he committed himself to acquiring a musical education and later to learning and appreciating "modern" poets. All this is told in chapters that compartmentalize the life: the developing years as a Jew in a modest Turin household in pre-fascist Italy; the scientific achievements; the teaching career; the marriage emotional life political activities. Luria set out to study medicine but a fascination with physics led to Fermi in Rome and then to a stint at the Pasteur Institute and the study of genes as molecules--a fanciful idea in the Thirties. World War II found him in New York and subsequently at Bloomington Indiana. The slot machine and the broken test tube of the title were both scientific turning points. In the first instance Luria made an intuitive leap while watching a slot machine at a college dance. He had been speculating about a problem dividing biologists: did the viruses that infected bacteria "phages" induce some bacteria to become resistant or was resistance the result of a random bacterial mutation If the latter then an experiment could be set up that would show certain cultures of bacteria infected by phage to be "jackpots" with numerous resistant colonies while others would be duds. So it was. The broken test tube was indeed an accident but one that resolved yet another mystifying question: why did some bacteria infected by phage die without phage progeny showing up in the culture dish The bacteria produced enzymes it turned out that attacked the phage DNA: the bacteria were still killed but the phage would not reproduce in that bacteria or in related strains. When Luria's test tube broke he borrowed a colleague's that contained bacteria of an unrelated strain; the enzyme-modified phage grew happily in this strain--thus demonstrating the new phenomena of "restriction" and "modification." Luria's chapters on molecular biology and its shapers are fine additions to the genre; the fascination of the book however is in the man. He presents himself with forthright honesty and integrity--unexpectedly disclosing at the end that he suffered years of depressive episodes prior to drug treatment. A remarkable life abundant in courage and conviction. Harper & Row hardcover

1959189120Greenwich: The New York Graphic Society 1959. First edition of this photobook collecting images of Dalí's singular work with jewels and precious metals. The artist writes "Paladin of a new Renaissance I too refuse to be confined. My art encompasses physics mathematics architecture nuclear science - the physico-nuclear the mystico-nuclear - and jewelry - not paint alone." The jewellery was made in New York by the Argentinean goldsmith Carlos Alemany and was acquired by the Owen Cheatham Foundation in 1958 which exhibited them at various premises. The collection is currently held at the Dalí Theater-Museu in Figueres. A numbered edition of 100 copies signed by the artist was also issued. Quarto. Frontispiece after photograph of the artist 24 tipped-in full colour photographs by Philip Roedel. Original grey boards with black cloth spine lettering to spine and front board in gilt. With the publisher's slipcase. Foxing and wear to slipcase. A near-fine copy. hardcover
