flexibound. 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: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 304 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | "Dr. Dudley Allen Buck was a brilliant young scientist and MIT professor who developed or invented everal pieces of now-common technology, most notably the cryotron, an early form of the microchip. Thought to be able to guide a new generation of intercontinental ballistic missiles to their targets, the cryotron attracted attention from around the world. Like his Nobel-winning colleagues, Buck might have benefited from his inventions, had he not died from a mysterious, sudden bout of pneumonia at the age of thirty-two--just weeks after a high-profile group of Soviet scientists visited his lab on a tour of the US. Buck was not the only scientist to die that day; his colleague Dr. Ridenour, chief scientist at Lockheed, was also found dead from similar causes. Were their deaths linked? Buck's lab books, diaries, correspondence, research papers, patent filings, and other recently discovered papers reveal his extensive career in clandestine government work that took him around the globe and behind the Iron Curtain for agencies including the NSA, putting him in contact with the Soviet Union's top computer scientists. Did Buck's pioneering work with microchips and his work for intelligence agencies make him a target of the KGB? Armed with this research, award-winning journalist Iain Dey tells with compelling immediacy the story of Dudley Buck's life and groundbreaking work, starting from his unconventional beginnings in California through his untimely death and beyond. The Cryotron Files is at once the gripping narrative history of America and its computer scientists during the Cold War and the dramatic personal story of rising MIT star Dudley Buck in the high-stakes days of spies, supercomputers, and the space and nuclear races."--Jacket.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 382 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Constitution for a Free People presents all the tools needed to create a charter for freedom for any government: city, county, state, nation, or colony on the Moon or Mars.It is based on the original Constitution for the United States, with worthy safeguards to secure liberty and curb an overreaching government. It assumes that men and women are born free and that most, when they arrive at the years of majority, are capable and able to solve common problems.It hails the U.S. Constitution as a charter of liberty and shows how the ideas behind its creation can be the basis for any government. Many statements from the Founders of the United States are given in support.Constitution for a Free People is for all who love liberty. It presents a plan for a government of the people, by the people and for the people. a plan for keeping decision making close to home. a plan for securing for all people their best hope for liberty, prosperity and happiness. Douglas Buck was born in a land of liberty and filled with industrious people, where neighbors helped one another with their problems or needs. Children played and walked or rode their bikes to school with little concern about being abused or taken hostage. Government was unobtrusive. Buck lived with his parents and grandparents. Everyone had chores. The family raised fruits, produced eggs and milk, and plowed walks and driveways. There was no need to register each business and follow a slew of regulations. People were careful and responsible. In his later years, Buck read The Making of America by W. Cleon Skousen, which reviews each clause of the U.S. Constitution, giving reasons for it inclusion. Knowledge of those reasons and Buck's belief that true principles are timeless and applicable everywhere inspired this book.
