198447169London Royal Society 1984. Royal8vo. Full buckram gilt lettering to spine.In: "Proceedings of the Royal Society of London" Series A vol. 392. IV478 pp. Entire volume offered. Berry's paper: pp. 45-57. Clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First printing of the paper in which Berry describes his discovery of the "Berry phase" a unifying concept in quantum mechanics."In 1983 Berry made the surprising discovery that a quantum system adiabatically transported round a closed circuit in the space of external parameters acquires besides the familiar dynamical phase a non-integrable phase depending only on the geometry of the circuit. This Berry phase which had been overlooked for more than half a century provides us a very deep insight on the geometric structure of quantum mechanics and gives rise to various observable effects. The concept of the Berry phase has now become a central unifying concept in quantum mechanics with applications in fields ranging from chemistry to condensed matter physics. In particular the Berry phase plays an important role in modern magnetism an allows to reach a deeper understanding of a broad range of phenomena such as the spin-orbit coupling the Aharonov-Bohm effect the quantum Hall effect the anomalous Hall effect the magnon dynamics the tunneling of magnetization in molecular magnets etc. Further in the light of the Berry phase a number of new phenomena can be predicted in ferromagnets with a textured magnetization or in semiconductors with spin-orbit coupling."

Signed by the author in black ink on the front free endpaper.<br /> <br /> A first edition of Wendell Berry's book-length essay about racism. The Village Voice refers to this work as "One of the most humane honest liberating works of our time." <br /> <br /> From the dust jacket-<br /> <br /> "If the white man has inflicted the wound of racism upon black men the cost has been that he would receive the mirror image of that wound into himself. I want to know as fully and exactly as I can what the wound is and how much I am suffering from it. And I want to be cured."<br /> <br /> This copy is significant because it is signed by both Wendell Berry and his wife and fellow homesteader Tanya Amyx Berry on the title page. Wendell and Tanya were married in the spring of 1957. In addition to being an artist and agrarian deeply ensconced in the Kentucky community Tanya is also the one who reads Wendell's first drafts and provides immediate feedback.
