Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Zustand: FINE. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: NEAR FINE. 118pp. FINE in NEAR FINE jacket, both exceedingly clean and sharp. 'This catalog is based on the exhibit, 'Aspects of Art and Science,' held at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of History and Technology and MIT's Compton Gallery in the summer and fall of 1978. It illustrates and discusses 72 objects and rare books from museums and private collections in the United States and Great Britain. These include art masterpieces, workaday objects, pieces associated with major scientific figures and long-extinct cultures-all manifesting the themes of Cyril Stanley Smith's research into the relationships among art, science, and technology. Smith, a distinguished metallurgist and historian of technology, now professor emeritus at MIT, has argued persuasively that time and again, the artist and artisan have discovered and exploited subtle properties of matter prior to their use in 'serious' technology and long before they attracted scientific attention.'.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fair. First Edition. 410 pages. Index. Reproductions of black and white photos. Printed upon glossy stock. "The essays make the case that historically many advances and discoveries regarding metals and ceramics came about through aesthetic curiosity and the desire to improve works of fine and decorative art, rather than through scientific investigation or in response to the need for products having practical utility. Other essays deal with the emerging understanding of the remarkable properties of steel, the positive uses of corrosion, ancient casting and molding techniques, and the connection between attempts to reproduce oriental porcelain in Europe and modern geological ideas. Still others are more philosophical in approach." - from dust jacket. Includes bibliography of the author's works. Average wear to unmarked book. Binding intact. Somewhat above-average wear to dust jacket which is now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart.…

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Zustand: gut. 1983. A Search for Structure: Selected Essays on Science, Art, and History In englischer Sprache. pages.

Hardbound. Zustand: Very Good +. Second printing. The author, Dr Cyril Smith, was widely considered the preeminent metallurgical scholar of the 20th century. In this volume he examines the impact of metallography - the determination of a metal's structure - on the processes used to form it, and on the forms and functionality of the objects that could be produced. His examination commences in medieval times and progresses down to the beginnings of the use of microscopy. Of particular interest are his notes on metallography with respect to the creation of metallic objects of art, such as the Merovingian pattern-welded blades, etched armour, Damascene blades and gun barrels and Japanese swords. A very sound copy, clean inside and out. xxii, 293 pp., 110 b&w ill.'s, index. Size: 26 x 18 cm.…
