viii, 159 p.; 22 cm. VG orig. tan cloth in vg dj. `the troubles of mankind arise chiefly from imperfections in man which are due to the appearance of self-consciousness' (27) `The physical unification of the world has increased feelings of insecurity. Formerly you could, generally speaking, only be attacked by your near neighbours; nowadays you may be threatened by people who live on the other side of the world. Moreover, the advance of technology has given men new weapons of mass-destruction--though the historian may doubt whether Hiroshima was more horrible than,say, some of the atrocities of the Mongols in the thirteenth century, the former is much nearer to ourselves. These feelings of insecurity,whether in nations or in smaller bodies politic,lead to a magnifying ofthe importance of one's own group and a belittling of the importance of other groups. The nomadic Arabs prior to Muhammad illustrate thiswiththeir two kinds of poem;in one they "boasted" ofthe glories oftheir own tribe and showed how its heroic achievements exemplified the highest human excellence (as they conceived it),while inthe other they spoke of the baseness and contemptibility of their enemies.Despite the many differences, modern war propaganda has the same basic pattern.Onthe one hand it portrays one's own side as superior in various ways--in ideals,in general conduct and in military success;and onthe other hand it suggests the inferiority of the enemy--his false ideals, his lower standards of conduct (sometimes amounting to atrocities), and his military failures. As people become more sophisticated, more subtlety is required to induce them to believe in their own superiority and their enemies' inferiority. The basic needs of average human beings, however, remain the same.' (123 f.). Binding is Hardcover.…

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. First edition. The first edition of this report by leading hydrologist and namesake of the 'Hurst Exponent', Harold Edwin Hurst. An important work in the field of hydrology and regarding the river Nile. With fascinating provenance. From the library of Frederic Newhouse (1883-1969), was a sometime inspector-general of Egyptian irrigation in the Sudan. This title was published as a part of a series of reports commissioned by the 'Ministry of Public Works, Egypt'. The Egyptian Department of Public works was established in the early 19th century and concentrated on works relating to irrigation and hydraulic engineering. It became the most respected engineering entity and regarded as a fantastic school for civil engineers in modern Egypt. This work was issued during the British Occupation Period and is number 24 of the 'Physical Department Paper'. Co-written by Harold Edwin Hurst and D A F Watt. Hurst was a British hydrologist from Leicester. He produced several studies on the long-term storage capacity of reservoirs and of the fluctuation in water level in the Nile. He worked in Egypt for 62 years and was heavily involved in the new Aswan High Dam project, which was built using his plan. D A F Watt was a resident engineer at the Aswan Reservoir. This technical study charts tables of the discharge of sluices as well as outlining four methods to measure discharge of the Nile. Hurst presents the results of these methods, which includes a wide range of data. The minister of public works at the time, Ibrahim Fahmy, prefaces this work by stating that 'the present report marks to the conclusion of a piece of work of great importance to Egypt which has extended over more than twenty years'. With four plates to the rear of the work, comprising of one photograph and three plans. An interesting and important study on the Nile and the irrigation development during the British occupation. In a quarter cloth binding with paper covered boards. Externally, generally smart. Boards have faded, and have light scattered spots. Prior owner's inscription to the front board, F Newhouse No A F 4/3. Internally, firmly bound. Pages are bright and clean. Very Good. None (illustrator). book.…
