Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - C. Barkley's little manual on rat catching (and rabbit catching) is from a past era when life was much simpler and our propensity to call a pest a pest was not diminished by the selective fads and niceties of modernity. Most important of all, it was an era when the Aristotelian idea of ends - the proper conduct of a life towards a desired conclusion - was of importance not just for humans, but for all living things. It was proper and ordained for rats to live rat-centred lives, doing the things rats do, just as it was proper for ferrets to do the things that come natural to them. And, as Barkley himself indicates in his Introduction, it was ordained in the great scheme of things that dogs should come to their human masters and not the other way round, for this, too, represents a natural order in the hierarchy of being. It was proper also, that each human occupation should be regarded as having an intrinsic worth and the value of the trade of rat-catching should be seen in no less a light than that of any other profession. Indeed, as Barkley hints in the book, the value of a rat-catcher might well be regarded in a higher light than that of your average politician who, as Barkley reminds us, is prone to giving speeches when Parliament is not sitting or, indeed, at every possible opportunity! And this, as Barkley tells us, is why he decided on a school text book for prospective rat catchers.…

Grey Wrappers. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. Volume 4 No 1, 40 Pp. Scarce In This, The Original Publication State Of Gray Printed Wrappers. Near Fine. Contains Rozsa's Review (In German) Of Gerhard Gentzeen's "Neue Fassung Des Widerspruchsfreiheitsbeweises Fur Die Reine Zahlentheorie". Rózsa Péter, Born Rózsa Politzer, (1905 - 1977) Was A Hungarian Mathematician And Logician. She Is Best Known As The "Founding Mother Of Recursion Theory". Initially, Péter Began Her Graduate Research On Number Theory. Upon Discovering That Her Results Had Already Been Proven By The Work Of Robert Carmichael And L. E. Dickson, She Abandoned Mathematics To Focus On Poetry. However, She Was Convinced To Return To Mathematics By Her Friend László Kalmár, Who Suggested She Research The Work Of Kurt Gödel On The Theory Of Incompleteness.[3] She Prepared Her Own, Different Proofs To Gödel's Work. Péter Presented The Results Of Her Paper On Recursive Theory, "Rekursive Funktionen," To The International Congress Of Mathematicians In Zurich, Switzerland In 1932. For Her Research, She Received Her Phd Summa Cum Laude In 1935. In 1936, She Presented A Paper Entitled "Über Rekursive Funktionen Der Zweiten Stufe" To The International Congress Of Mathematicians In Oslo.[3] These Papers Helped To Found The Modern Field Of Recursive Function Theory As A Separate Area Of Mathematical Research. In 1937, She Was Appointed As Contributing Editor Of The Journal Of Symbolic Logic. After The Passage Of The Jewish Laws Of 1939 In Hungary, Péter Was Forbidden To Teach Because Of Her Jewish Origin And Was Briefly Confined To A Ghetto In Budapest. During World War Ii, She Wrote Her Book Playing With Infinity: Mathematical Explorations And Excursions, A Work For Lay Readers On The Topics Of Number Theory And Logic. In 1952, She Was The First Hungarian Woman To Be Made An Academic Doctor Of Mathematics. After The College Closed In 1955, She Taught At Eötvös Loránd University Until Her Retirement In 1975. She Was A Popular Professor, Known As "Aunt Rózsa" To Her Students. In 1951, She Published Her Key Work, Recursive Functions (Rekursive Funtionen). She Continued To Publish Important Papers On Recursive Theory Throughout Her Life. Beginning In The Mid-1950S, Péter Applied Recursive Function Theory To Computers. Her Final Book, Published In 1976, Was Recursive Functions In Computer Theory. Originally Published In Hungarian, It Was The Second Hungarian Mathematical Book To Be Published In The Soviet Union Because Its Subject Matter Was Considered Indispensable To The Theory Of Computers. It Was Translated Into English In 1981.Péter Was Awarded The Kossuth Prize In 1951. She Received The Manó Beke Prize By The János Bolyai Mathematical Society In 1953, The Silver State Prize In 1970, And The Gold State Prize In 1973.

As It Is Impossible To Show That The Cause And Effect Of Any Physical Event Can Be Isolated Sufficiently To Make The Effects Of Forces Susceptible To A Complete Logical Analysis, The Connection Of Physical Science And Logic Remains Tangential And Tenuous.
