Zustand: Gut. Zustand: Gut | Seiten: 308 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | The study of cortical oscillations is of great interest to those working in many areas of neuroscience. A fast coherent EEG rhythm called gamma or "40 Hz" has been implicated in cognition, as it may play a role in binding together features of objects. This rhythm may also be important for consciousness, as a number of drugs that induce general anesthesia disrupt the synchronization of the rhythm at clinically relevant concentrations. There is also suggestive evidence implicating dysfunction of gamma rhythms in Alzheimer's disease, and perhaps in other neuropsychiatric disorders.

Public appetite for a detailed narrative encouraged a publishing race, of which this work, published less than three months after the expedition's return to England and almost two years prior to Hawkesworth's authorised version, was the winner. This first issue containing the dedication leaf was swiftly withdrawn following the publicly advertised consternation of the dedicatees, the Admiralty, Joseph Banks and Daniel Solander. Published anonymously, the work is generally attributed to James Magra, an American mid-shipman aboard. (Hill II:1066(without dedication leaf); Hocken p9; Holmes 3; O'Rielly-Reitman 362; Sabin 4246 & 16242; DuRietz-catalogue of the Kroepelien Collection p215; Frost Life of James Mario Matra: Voyager with Cook 1995; Beddie 693/4; STC T29207). The work is a short, but interesting narrative of Cook's first voyage, which relates his visits to Tahiti, New Zealand, Australia, New Guinea, Batavia, and Rio de Janeiro. The author is noteworthy because he is one of the few to criticize Cook in any meaningful way. Despite problems with the accuracy of the text, this work will always hold the place of being the first account of that voyage and the first account in print of the Australian coast. (in translation, it also gave the French their first account of that voyage).

No binding. Large folio (620 x 390 mm.), contemporary half russia, gilt stamped red calf title label affixed to both boards, with marbled endpapers, blank endpapers, Jeffreys map of Yorkshire in 20 sheets in early outline colour each approximately 600 x 600 mm., including key map as plate V; bound with the Tuke large scale map of the county in 4 sheets, each approximately 600 x 725 mm., each in full early wash colour; bound with Tuke's map of Holderness 625 x 485 mm. With light offsetting to the Jefferys, some foxing to the Holderness otherwise in very good condition. A wonderful bound collection of large-scale maps of Yorkshire with a fine provenance including the extremely rare FIRST EDITION OF THE JOHN TUKE map. The first map within is by Thomas Jefferys (1719-71) and is an example of the FIRST EDITION of his great twenty-sheet large-scale map of the county of Yorkshire. It was however issued posthumously as he died 20 November 1771. He was one of the great architects behind the rise of the large-scale mapping of English counties during the middle of the eighteenth century. The survey of Yorkshire was undertaken by John Ainslie (1745-1828), Thomas Donald (fl.1750-c.1797) and Joseph Hodskinson (1735-1812) between 1767 and 1770. It is published on a scale of one inch to the mile and is considered one of Jefferys' finest productions. It consists of a general map as sheet V, a fine double page engraved title and excellent plans of Sheffield, Leeds, Ripon, Kingston-upon-Hull and Scarborough mostly drawn to the great scale of 132 yards to the inch. It also contains fine views of Middleham Castle and Fountains Abbey engraved by William Walker (1729-93) after Nicholas Thomas Dall. The map illustrates the three Ridings and also the individual Wapontakes with early outline colour.Bound with the FIRST STATE of the VERY RARE separately published large-scale map of Yorkshire by John Tuke. Little is known of Tuke in the carto-bibliographies other than that he was a land surveyor in York with printed maps issued between 1787 and 1798. Further research identifies the Tuke family as Quaker innovators. Members were behind what became the Rowntree's Cocoa Works, the Retreat Mental Hospital and three Quaker schools. John Tuke (30 June 1759-19 January 1841) was the fourth born or five children to William Tuke (1732-1822) and Elizabeth Hoyland (1729-60). William Tuke was a tea merchant and grocer in York and a pioneer in work on mental health. Our John Tuke was born in Lincroft, Bishopshill, York and married Sarah Mildred (1762-1829), daughter of Daniel Mildred and Lydia Daniel, on 16 Apr 1783. They had eight children and he died in Bishophill, York. In 1787 he would publish two maps, one of the region of Holderness (also found here) in Yorkshire, the other being this large four-sheet map of the whole county. Lower right below the beautifully engraved title cartouche of a north east view of York is the imprint of 'Wm. Darton Engr. Birchin Lane, London'. It is unclear from this whether he is responsible for just the title cartouche or the whole map. Two insets appear on the map of which that upper right is entitled 'Reduced Map of the County of York describing the Roman Roads & c. and also the intended Grand Canal betwixt the Rivers Ouse and Humber .' The Explanation below describes the different typography used to illustrate the Market towns, Parishes and other villages etc. Churches, Country Seats and Parks are also singled out as are the differing types of roads and, rivers, boundaries and the divisions of the Wapontakes. Lower left is an inset plan of Kingston upon Hull surveyed by Anthony Bower (fl.1781-1813+) in 1786. Copac only records four examples in institutions: British Library; Brotherton Library, Leeds (2 examples); Allen Collection, Bodleian Library, Oxford. Rodger in her extensive survey identifies six others. Beautifully wash coloured at the time by Wapontake. Bound with the rare separately published map of Holderness in the East Riding of.

copper-engraved map, four sheets joined, approx. 104.5 x 98cm, [ 41" x 38.5"]., original outline colour; minute loss at few folds; with two detailed insets, one of the city of Boston and the other of Boston Harbour; with the large cartouche depicting the Pilgrims arriving at Plymouth Rock in 1630. A lovely example of this scarce map, some detail wear on the frame, beautifully matted and framed but, rare. Cumming. British Maps of Colonial America, pp45-47. McCorkle. New England in Early Printed Maps, 774-4. Stevens & Tree. Comparative Cartography, 33 (e). This is the fifth state of this work, which was first published in 1755 and updated periodically thereafter; this map was in Jefferys' posthumous (and notoriously scarce) American Atlas of 1775. Thomas Jefferys (1719-71) was a leading British cartographer and publisher; Braddock Mead c.1688-1757, a.k.a., John Green, was an Irishman who was imprisoned in Ireland on grounds of fraud, took on his alias when he was released, and moved to London. He became an extremely practiced and professional cartographer, and held his profession to the highest level. This map contains family names of real estate holders, as well as cartographic details of the New England states from the latitude of 44'30 in the north to Long Island Sound in the south, encompassing part of Maine, Rhode Island, what is now Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, northern Connecticut, and eastern New York from north of Crown Point through Lake George and down the Hudson River. One of the most important of North American maps, this version was published shortly before the Revolution.

Bedfordshire - Jefferys' fine large-scale map of Bedfordshire Engraved map on eight sheets, fine original full wash colour, inset plan upper right [with] the map reduced onto one sheet, fine original full wash colour, with contemporary manuscript annotations. Jefferys' finely engraved large-scale map of the county of Bedfordshire, in original full-wash colour; together with the rare key sheet. Thomas Jefferys was involved in one capacity or another in no less than ten English large-scale surveys in the latter part of the eighteenth century. The present map of Bedfordshire was his second foray, having engraved Benjamin Donn's award winning map of Devon in the same year. A great amount of detail is marked on the map, including market towns, parishes, churches, seats or noted houses, farms, cottages, parks, turnpike roads, enclosed roads, open roads, roads opened on one side, distances from London marked in print numerals, distances from Bedford marked in common numerals, and names of Roman roads marked in gothic script. To the lower right is a fine title cartouche depicting a rural scene; to the upper right is an inset plan of Bedford and scale bar. The map also bears a dedication to the Duke of Bedford at the lower left. Thomas Jefferys was one of the most important and prolific map publishers of the eighteenth century. He was appointed Cartographer to Frederick, Prince of Wales in 1748, and later provided the same office to Frederick's son George III. Apart from his publishing business he produced important atlases and maps of America and the West Indies, and surveyed and engraved many large-scale maps of English counties. The huge cost involved in these projects was a major contribution to his slide into insolvency and he became bankrupt in 1766. Surprisingly, it made little difference to his business activities, "having found some friends who have been compassionate enough to re-instate me in my shop". One of these friends was Robert Sayer, who joined him in partnership and whose imprint appeared on the later editions of some of Jefferys' large-scale surveys. John Ainslie (1745-1828) began his career as an apprentice to Thomas Jefferys in 1762. It is with Jefferys, it is assumed, that Ainslie first learned the talents that made him the greatest British land-surveyor of his generation. Jefferys would have taught him the mechanics of the map and print-trade: engraving, but more significantly, surveying and mapmaking. As the Seven Years' War and its American phase, the French and Indian War, drew to a close, Jefferys turned his attention away from military mapping to large-scale surveys of the English counties. These country maps were produced with Ainslie and fellow apprentice Thomas Donald, and Joseph Hodkinson (fl.1765-1812) taking a leading role. They produced maps of Bedfordshire (the present map around 1765; six sheets), Buckinghamshire (1770; four sheets), Cumberland (1770; six sheets) and Yorkshire (1772; 20 sheets). Scale: two inches to one statute mile. Roger 2 and 3. (if joined) 1880 by 1160mm. (74 by 45.75 inches). Key sheet: 690 by 460mm (27 by 18 inches).
