"An analysis of the impact of Western technology and skills on the industrial development of the Soviet Union. The hypothesis is that the absorption of Western technology and skills has been by far the most significant factor in the development of the Soviet economy. No fundamental industrial innovation of Soviet origin has been identified there between 1917 and 1965 and preliminary investigation suggests this situation continued throughout the sixties. Concludes that the Soviet Union's central planning has virtually no capability for self-generated indigenous innovation.

17014Women Education Handwritten Album Memory album from student at Female Academy in Springfield MA. A memorabilia recording many aspects of the first major movement of women's education in the United States brings depth to a movement that was groundbreaking in its time but today is largely at risk of disappearing from the historical record. Filled with 44 handwritten inscriptions dated 1876-1882 from classmates teachers and friends. 4.25 x 7 in. Original leather boards. 114 pages. Gilt "Autographs" and decorative detail to front cover. Two original illustrations of a bird one in color. Most entries are signed from schoolmates in Springfield MA. Memory albums held autographs sentiments and reminiscences of friends and schoolmates similar to yearbooks today. Young women particularly those finishing their time at a female academy and preparing to leave their school friends tended to be the ones to create friendship albums. Included is an entry from teacher Myra F. Hoffman who writes: "That your work in life may be always as cheerfully and faithfully performed as now is the wish of your friend and teacher."Â Many inscriptions directly reference school life. A entry from 1877 is titled "Schoolmate": "In your list of real friends My name I wish to see. And if a lasting friend you wish That friend you will find in me." Others sign off "Your Seat-mate" and one of 1882 is from "Your Sincere Friend and Classmate" and another "Friend and Schoolmate." One quotes Ralph Waldo Emerson: "Do that which is assigned thee" says Emerson "and though canst not hope too much or dare too much." Interestingly one entry from 1877 entries is signed "Shang Hai China."Â Loss to leather spine though hinges are sound. Front and back cover are attached. Good to very good condition. unknown books

19661648041966. A flyer invitation for the inaugural public meeting of the London Free School on 8 March 1966 in Notting Hill inscribed in ink at the head "canvassers will be calling shortly". The project's brief existence saw the inauguration of the Notting Hill Neighbourhood Service one of the first centres to offer drug and legal advice in London the International Times the UFO Club and the birth of Notting Hill Carnival. Based on the American free universities the LFS offered help and advice on a variety of social issues including housing problems race relations wages immigration and mental health. Its contingent included the organizers John Hopkins and Rhaune Laslett activist Michael X writers Jeff Nuttall and Alexander Trocchi actress Anjelica Huston psychiatrist R. D. Laing and Pete Jenner who had just started managing Pink Floyd. Some of the band's earliest gigs were fundraisers for LFS and the community events that would become Notting Hill Carnival. The Carnival evolved in the mid-1960s from an indoor festival of Caribbean culture organized by Trinidadian journalist and activist Claudia Jones. The LFS were responsible for the first event held outside in August 1966. This free celebration of community morphed from a static event into the now-famous carnival procession when Russell Henderson's steel band turned up and got the party moving.
