Internally clean. <br/><br/><em>First edition. In this work De Broglie set forth the idea that electrons as was previously regarded as particles also have wave-quaracters as well as light has. The idea was tested and confirmed by Davisson and Germer the year after in 1927. Also Schrödinger took up the idea and formulated his wave-equation explaning the stationary states of the electron of Niels Bohr by applying De Broglie's concept of electrons as waves to the hydrogen atom. "Thus the duality of both light and matter had been established and physicists had to come to terms with fundamental particles which defied simple theories and demanded two sets of 'complementary' descriptions each applicable under certain circumstances but imcompatible with one another."

In 4°; XI, (1), 415, (1) pp. Legatura editoriale in piena tela verde con titolo impresso in oro al piatto anteriore, un minimo ed ininfluente difetto alla cerniera posteriore, senza perdita di materiale, nel complesso in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Ottimo esemplare. Varie immagini e schemi tecnici nel testo. Prima rarissima edizione francese di uno dei più celebri manuali di telegrafia senza fili, scritto dal grande professore scozzese di telegrafia senza fili e telefonia James Murray Erskine, tradotto da Henri Magniez ingegnere elettrico della Compagnia Generale di Radiotelegrafia. James Erskine-Murray (1868-1927), scozzese di nascita, fu uno dei più grandi esperti del suo tempo di tecnologia wireless. Si formò per sei anni studiando sotto Lord Kelvin presso l’Università di Glasgow prima di arrivare al Trinity College di Cambridge come studente di ricerca. Finiti gli studi divenne un consulente telegrafia e pubblicò quest’opera per la prima volta nel 1907. Il lavoro ebbe enorme successo prima nei paesi anglosassoni dove nel giro di meno dieci anni ebbe 6 ristampe e poi grazie a questa traduzione francese anche nel resto d’Europa. Il suo scopo era quello di informare i tecnici, studenti e operatori radio su molti aspetti di una tecnologia in rapida evoluzione. Il libro copre i recenti sviluppi del tempo. L’opera si pone come un classico precoce nel campo della progettazione e delle onde radio e offrì agli studenti contemporanei e appassionati di radio una guida utile e specifica sulle prime tecnologie wireless. Esemplare assai raro e ancor più raro in queste ottime condizioni di conservazione. A good copy.

A testament to one of the first fields of labor where women gained equality. one TLS dated 1944 and 6 B&W photos of the Navy WAVES of the USS Hunt. The letter reads in full "Dear Mrs. CadmanYou have the right to be very proud of what your daughter has done in speeding our recent offensive ever closer to the heart of Germany and Japan. Behind each exciting headline these days you are measuring the contribution your daughter is making.You have the right to let the world know you are proud of her.Our Nation's leaders are proud too. President Roosevelt said 'The WAVES have proved they are capable of accepting the highest responsibility in service of their country. On behalf of a grateful nation I offer a hearty well done.' Admiral King added 'You who are members of the Women's Reserve have won the respect of the naval service by your acceptance of military requirements readiness for responsbility and already valuable contribution to the work of winning this war. You will share the gratitude of a nation when victory is ours.'Because by meeting the challenges of life in service your daughter is developing new maturity dependability and confidence.Because by keeping before her the standards of conduct learned at home and in her church she has contributed to the excellent reputation for which the WAVES are known across America.I am enclosing a display piece for you to place in your window. It is designed to let the rest of America know that a member of your family is serving her country in the WAVES. I know you will display it proudly." It is then signed boldly by the USNR Ensign "Barbara C. Bloom."<br/><br/>The members of the WAVES were leaders in obtaining workplace equality in and beyond the military given their access to the same titles and pay as their male counterparts. While WAVES could not serve aboard combat ships or aircraft and they were authorized to serve in certain overseas U.S. possessions and a number were sent to Hawaii. At the end of WWII there were well over 8000 female officers and some ten times that many enlisted WAVES about 2-1/2 percent of the Navy's total strength. In some places WAVES constituted a majority of the uniformed Naval personnel. And many remained in uniform to help get the Navy into and through the post-war era. The 6 photographs are in assorted sizes ranging from wallet to 8'x9" with minor foxing and wear on edges. Large official photograph of women in uniform is inscribed on the back in period hand with the names of the women.
