194414708JNew York: Simon & Schuster 1944. Two copies of this book one belonging to Fredric March and the other to his wife Florence Eldridge. The poem was written during World War II and was presented in adapted dramatic form several times over the NBC radio network. The copy belonging to Fredric March is a second printing and is signed by him in pencil on the flyleaf - Fredric March November 1944. With some pencil notes by him referring to the text. At a later date the author has inscribed the book to his friend - For Fred March - Concerning whose reading of this poem words fail me - Russell Davenport. On the death of President Franklin Roosevelt in April 1945 the NBC Radio Network had March give a dramatic reading of the poem as part of its tribute to the fallen wartime President. The first printing copy belonging to Florence Eldridge is heavily annotated by her in pencil for an earlier radio reading in which she acted. Her copy is a first printing and inscribed by the author - For Florence Affectionately Russell Nov 30 / 44 And don’t for Dec 11!. There is an Autograph Letter Signed by Russell Davenport to Eldridge taped to the front pastedown tape browned dated December 12 1944 written after her radio reading - Dear Florence- This is just a little note wholly inadequate to express my appreciation for all your effort and care in the reading of My Country. You gave a superb performance. If there is ever anything that an unlikely scrivener can do in return you know where to come. Let me see you soon. Affectionately Russ. Both books are enclosed together in a custom clamshell box. Russell Davenport 1899-1954 was a very interesting man and close friend of the Marchs. As Wikipedia notes he “.served with the U.S. Army in World War I and received the Croix de Guerre. He enrolled at Yale University and graduated in 1923 where he was classmate of Henry Luce and Briton Hadden who founded Time magazine. While at Yale he became a member of the secret society Skull and Bones. In 1929 he married the writer Marcia Davenport; they divorced in 1944. He joined the editorial staff of Fortune magazine in 1930 and became managing editor in 1937. At age forty-one he turned to politics and became a personal and political advisor to Wendell Willkie. Willkie was the Republican nominee for the 1940 presidential election and lost the election to Franklin D. Roosevelt. After Willkie's death in 1944 Davenport became a defacto leader of the internationalist Republicans. Following World War II he was on the staff of Life and Time until 1952.†Simon & Schuster unknown books

195838022New York: John Wiley & Sons 1958. First edition of this classic in management science. Octavo original cloth. From the library of Nobel Prize-winning economist John Harsanyi with his signature on the front free endpaper . 'Outside the Carnegie group we should like to acknowledge especially our many hours of fruitful work and discussion with Robert A. Dahl on the subject of influence measurement and the help and guidance that John C. Harsanyi provided for our treatment of the relation between game theory and other theories of conflict' p. vi. 'Simon was attracted to the exciting intellectual environment emerging at the Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh. After moving to Carnegie in 1949 Simon stayed there for more than five decades. At Carnegie Simon collaborated on work that established the field of organization theory. The founding work was a major study done with James G. March published as Organizations. The book continued the argument that decision makers are not able to act in an objectively rational manner; rather they are constrained by both cognitive and external limitations. So instead of assuming that each decision maker scans all possible alternatives and chooses the one that maximizes expected utility Simon argued that decision makers instead use 'satisficing' as a criterion for making decisions; they choose the first alternative that looks 'good enough.' March and Simon wrote in Organizations 'Most human decision making whether individual or organizational is concerned with the discovery and selection of satisfactory alternatives; only in exceptional cases is it concerned with the discovery and selection of optimal alternatives.' . . . One of Simon's insights was that the observed complexity of human behavior arose from simple and general underlying mechanisms that were applied to a complex task environment. Simon illustrated this with his famous metaphor of 'the ant on the beach.' The ant's goal is to reach some distant food. While the ant's path to the food seems very complex twisting and turning most of the apparent complexity is due to the grains of sand to be traversed. The complexity of the environment rather than the complexity of mechanism within the decision maker gives rise to the observed behavior. 'In solving problems' March and Simon wrote 'human thinking is governed by programs that organize myriads of simple information processes - or symbolic manipulating processes if you like - into orderly complex sequences that are responsive to and adaptive to the task environment and the clues that are extracted from that environment as the sequences unfold' ' Mie Augier & Edward Feigenbaum 'Herbert A.
