Unbound as issued. 223 x 145 mm. Lower corner lightly creased but very good.</p> <p>First Edition Rare Offprint Issue. Einstein's important correction to his paper on specific heats "Die Plancksche Theorie der Strahlung und die Theorie der spezifischen Wärme" 1907; see Weil 15 which "made clear for the first time that quantum concepts have a far more general applicability" Pais p. 394. "Einstein initially believed that his oscillating lattice points in a three-dimensional crystal lattice were electrically charged ions. A few months later he published a correction to his paper in which he observed that this was an unnecessary assumption . . . Einstein's correction freed the quantum rules in passing one might say from any specific dependence on electromagnetism" Pais p. 396. Pais Subtle is the Lord pp. 394-396. Weil 15n.</p> . unknown

Original printed wrappers a little chipped splint in lower spine. Light toning but very good.</p> <p>First Edition Offprint Issue. Einstein's correction to his formula for the viscosity coefficient = 1 a key equation in his 1905 doctoral thesis in which he had presented a new theoretical method for determining molecular radii and Avogadro's number. In 1910 Jacques Bacelin a pupil of French physicist Jean-Baptiste Perrin obtained experimental results indicating a possible error in Einstein's formula. "That prompted Einstein after an unsuccessful attempt to find an error to ask his student and collaborator Ludwig Hopf to check his calculations and arguments . . . Hopf did find an error in the dissertation namely in the derivatives of some velocity components and obtained for a corrected coefficient 2.5 . . .In early 1911 Einstein submitted his correction for publication and recalculated Avogadro's number. He obtained a value of 6.56 x 1023 per mole a value that is close to those derived from kinetic theory and Planck's black-body radiation theory" Duplantier pp. 216-217.

1944180331Princeton: Princeton University Press 1944. First edition offprint issue of the first of two papers on Einstein's penultimate approach by which he hoped to arrive at a unified field theory. "What Einstein and Bargmann proposed was an attempt at a nonlocal relativistic theory of gravitation. They investigated the properties of a new kind of mathematical object that they called 'bivectors'" Sauer p. 300. Octavo pp. 14.

19559355New York: G. P. Putnam 1955. First Edition. Hardcover. Near fine/very good. Small octavo 168pp. A crisp clean copy near fine with a touch of pinpoint rubbing to the spine ends and corners. in a very good dust jacket with a few short tears and the spine sunned but no notable chips. This copy SIGNED by Willie Mays on the half-title page: "Best Wishes Willie Mays N. Y. Giants." On the same leaf is another seemingly later inscription which just reads "To J. B. Hennesey." This also looks to be in Mays's hand. We suppose that Hennesey owned this book which had been signed around the time of publication and he took it to a signing sometime later in the 1970s or 80s where he had it personalized by Mays. Mays wrote another autobiography in 1988 which is typically more easily obtainable. We could find no signed copies of this mid-career autobiography in auction records. Copies signed near the time of publication are decidedly uncommon. A significant Willie Mays autograph signed while Mays was still on the New York not San Francisco Giants. G. P. Putnam hardcover
