Pictorial Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Rena Fennessy (illustrator). First Edition. 2003. xiv, 271pp. Colour frontispiece. B&W illustrations and maps. "East Africa, comprising Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, is one of the richest areas of the African continent as far as birds are concerned. The 1293 species so far recorded represent some 15 percent of the present number of birds in the world. Many are migrants from other continents. The majority of these migratory birds breed in Europe and Asia, visiting East Africa every year. . This book, with its precise, detailed, condensed and carefully compiled information, will be great assistance and value to all ornithologically interested people of the world, and especially to those who are living in East Africa or visiting the region." Book covers show signs of shelfwear to the spine ends, edges and corners. Cup stain to front cover. Otherwise, pages and binding in excellent condition, no inscriptions.

Wraps. Zustand: Good. First Collected Edition. First Collected Edition. [1], 155 pages. Self wrappers. Blue cloth spine over stapled printed grey, black and blue wrappers. Five holes punched at spine as issued. Several tears to the thin blue cloth at the spine, corner creases. Light browning overall. Reading creases to covers. Previous owner name (R. Warner, 1-118) inked on front cover. Minor edgewear, otherwise a nice copy. One of two variants of this publication, printed on non-glossy paper stock and bulking 9.4 mm thick. "Issued April, 1950" inside the rear wrapper. This variant has reset covers, with minor differences on the front cover illustration lower right (the transistor icon touches the outside of the circle in three places and is simplified, where on most copies we've seen it does not touch the circle edges at all). Wraps. Bell Telephone System, Technical Publications, Monograph 1726. Collects a number of important transistor related papers from the Bell System Technical Journal, Vol 28, pp. 335-489, July 1949. Reprints "Hole Injection in Germanium - Quantitative Studies and Filamentary Transistors", "Some Circuit Aspects of the Transistor", "Theory of Transient Phenomena in the Transport of Holes in an Excess Semiconductor", "On the Theory of the A-C Impedance of a Contact Rectifier", and "The Theory of p-n Junctions in Semiconductors and p-n Junction Transistors." Plus an editorial note regarding semiconductors. COLLECTORS NOTE: The Bell System Monograph series is not an offprint series although it is often incorrectly referred to in this manner. It was rather a publication of Bell Telephone Laboratories used to widely distribute (primarily to libraries and large corporations) research articles written by Bell System employees in a variety of widely dispersed publications (including but certainly not limited to the Bell System Technical Journal). The series therefore represents a much broader selection of Bell System research than the Bell System Technical Journal did. Collectors prize this series as they are often (but not always) the first separate appearance of a paper and hence are the closest one can get to the elusive and ever sought after offprint.

Wraps. Zustand: Near Fine. First Collected Edition. First Collected Edition. [1], 155 pages. Self wrappers. Blue cloth spine over stapled printed grey, black and blue wrappers. 5 hole punched at spine as issued. A bright clean copy, one of the best copies we've handled, noting a small bump to the pageblock upper right and a slight three ring binder indentation on rear wrapper. One of two variants we are aware of, this example with glossy paper stock and pages bulking 7mm thick. Both are marked "Issued April, 1950" inside the rear wrapper. No known precedence. Wraps.

Bardeen, Brattain and Shockley won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1956 "for their researches on semiconductors and their discovery of the transistor effect." The first paper referenced here, 'Physical Principles Involved in Transistor Action' is the classic paper on the subject, here in it's original publication format. The same paper was published simultaneously in the April 15, 1949 issue of the Physical Review. This volume also contains a paper by Claude Shannon 'Communication Theory of Secrecy Systems' which was originally published in a classified memorandum 'A Mathematical Theory of Cryptography' in Sept 1, 1945. It was declassified, and published here for the first time publically. There are also other papers on the transistor, and papers by other Bell System researchers. The Bell System Research Labs functioned as a rich incubator during this period, turning out key developments across many technologies. The Bell System Technical Journal is an important journal of record for research in electronics, physics, communications theory, and mathematics. Shannon, Collected Papers #24 (original memorandum publication) and #25 (this publication, which is noted as superceding the original memorandum). Origins of Cyberspace 450.

Lancaster, PA & New York, American Physical Society, 1948. Royal8vo. Bound in contemporary black full cloth with gilt lettering to spine. In "Nature", Vol. 74, 1948. Spine with a bit a wear and front hinge a bit loose, otherwise a fine and clean copy. First printing of the single most important volume of The Physical Review containing an exceptional number of important papers - amongst other the first paper to describe the transistor: One of the most important inventions of the 20th Century which awarded them the Nobel Prize in physics in 1956.,The three first titles are the short letters in Physical Review which first announced the invention of the transistor. The following year Bardeen and Brattain published the more comprehensive report "Physical Principles Involved in Transistor Action". This paper was simultaneously published, the same month, in The Bell System Technical Journal (Number 2 volume 28). In 1956 Bardeen and Brattain shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with William Shockley "for their researches on semiconductors and their discovery of the transistor effect". In 1972 Bardeen again received the Nobel Prize in Physics for his part in the development of the theory of superconductivity (BCS-theory), and thus became the only person, until this day, to receive the Nobel Prize more than once in the same field. "The invention of the transistor would in time change the world by making possible the microchip and all the devices that followed from it, but the discovery ruined the spirit of the Bell Laboratories semiconductor group. Shockley, who had been uninvolved in the invention of the original transistor, stunned Bardeen and Brattain when he tried to patent the invention in his name, hoping to base it on his suggestion of the field-effect amplifier. Shockley's plan failed because the patent attorneys discovered that Julius E. Lilienfeld, a Polish-American inventor, had already patented the field-effect notion in 1930. Shockley further antagonized Brattain and Bardeen by preventing them from working on the consequences of their historic invention, a second transistor, known as the junction device, which could better be used commercially." (DSB)The issue also contain two of the papers leading to Richard Feynman's 1965 Nobel Prize in Physics, (A Relativistic Cut-Off for Classical Electrodynamics & Relativistic Cut-Off for Quantum Electrodynamics) and the paper that led to Polykarp Kusch's 1955 Nobel Prize in Physics (The Magnetic Moment of the Electron)Also containing Maria Goeppert-Mayer paper that led to her 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics (On Closed Shells in Nuclei), the seminal P. A. M. Dirac paper on magnetic monopoles (A theory of Magnetic Poles) and three important papers on The Big Bang Theory by George Gamow, Ralph Alpher and George Herman (The Origin of the Elements and the Separation of Galaxies & Thermonuclear Reactions in the Expanding Universe & On the Relative Abundance of the Elements & A Neutron-Capture Theory of the Formation and Relative Abundance of the Elements).See Hook & Norman: Origins of Cyberspace, No. 450.
