Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. Otto Nielsen (Cover Art) (illustrator). First Printing [Stated]. xvi, [2], 93, [15] pages. Appendix. Notes. Bibliography. Index. During WWII he worked in Switzerland with Prisoners of War. He visited camps in Germany, Austria, and Poland. The author joined the Swedish Civil Aviation Administration in 1947. Letter related to author laid in. He later worked for Scandinavian Airlines System and became chief of Aeropolitical and Foreign affairs. In retirement he became noted as a historian of flight. This book, published in celebration of the 300th anniversary of the birth of Emanuel Swedenborg, was based on several years of research in libraries, archives, and aviation institutions and represents the first comprehensive study of this remarkable design. Emanuel Swedenborg (born Emanuel Swedberg; 29 January 1688 - 29 March 1772) was a Swedish Lutheran theologian, scientist, philosopher, revelator and mystic who inspired Swedenborgianism. He is best known for his book Heaven and Hell (1758). Swedenborg was also an inventor and scientist. Swedenborg's Flying Machine was first sketched by the Swedish scientist Emanuel Swedenborg in 1714, when he was 26 years old. It was later published in his periodical, Daedalus Hyperboreus, in 1716. The image shows the flying machine from above looking down. It consists of one large wing. In the middle of it is a hole with a basket, where the pilot stands. There are two "paddles" on the wings. These are used by the pilot like oars in a boat, except in this case they only move up and down. Underneath the ship is the landing gear; it consists of four long poles, which, except for the ends of two, can not be seen since they are below the ship. In between them is a weight, which is used to keep the ship balanced. The wing is a light frame covered with strong canvas. The large wing would work as a glider, and by working the paddles up and down the pilot would keep the plane in the air, Swedenborg initially hoped.

Den har blivit både ett tidsvittne och ett mångsidigt konstnärligt medium. Trots att intresset för fotografin växer, har dess svenska historia inte tidigare kartlagts. Här skildras nu personerna bakom kameran och de olika epokernas stilar och strömningar. Här möter vi pionjärerna och deras efterföljare, de bofasta och etablerade ateljéfotograferna, liksom resenärerna, de svenskar som gav oss bilder från Asien, Amerika och Arktis, landskapsfotograferna, samhällsskildrarna och societetsfotograferna. Här står att läsa om "Konstnärstiden" då fotograferna oförfärat lånade från målarnas och grafikernas uttryckssätt och frigjorde sig från den exakta avbildningens slaveri, om funkisåren som kom med en ny och djärvare stil och om den idylliska fotografin under trettiotalet. Den svenska fotografins historia är ett efterlängtat pionjärverk. Det illustreras med över 400 bilder ? några bildklassiker, andra nyfunna under författarnas djupdykningar i arkiv och samlingar."
