Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The life and times of Frank Willis mayor of Florence, SC from 1995 to 2008. Florence was at a crossroads of sorts. The Florence Civic Center fight was over and the local university, Francis Marion University was mature and starting to grow; international and national business were noticing Florence and starting to come to Florence. The community was changing. Mayor Frank seized the opportunity and arose to great success. Mayor Frank's opportunity: a change in the attitude of Florence about growth and development symbolized by the new Civic Center, funding potential from the new Drs. Bruce and Lee Foundation, the significant occurrence of concurring presidents of the Florence Darlington Technical College and the Francis Marion University, and a potent group of six supporters and advisors recruited into his kitchen cabinet. The book is not only local Florence history but also instruction for anybody yearning local leadership and achievement.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good +. 1st Edition. Viii, 160 Pp. Blue Cloth (Hardcover Issue). Light Wear, Slight Bumping To Corners With Pronounced Larger Bump To Lower Front Tip. Ownership Signature Of John E. Willis, David White Co., Later Of The Naval Observatory At Washington, Inventor Of The Pendelum Astrolabe. Simon Newcomb (1835 -1909) Was A Canadian-American Astronomer, Applied Mathematician And Autodidactic Polymath. Newcomb Visited Paris, France In 1870, Already Aware That The Table Of Lunar Positions Calculated By Peter Andreas Hansen Was In Error. While In Paris, He Realized That, In Addition To The Data From 1750 To 1838 That Hansen Had Used, There Was Further Data Stretching As Far Back As 1672, And Newcomb Used The "New" Data To Revise Hansen's Tables. In 1878, Newcomb Started Planning For A New And Precise Measurement Of The Speed Of Light, Starting Development A Refinement Of The Method Of Léon Foucault. A Letter From Albert Abraham Michelson Began A Long Collaboration And Friendship. In 1880, Michelson Assisted At Newcomb's Initial Measurement, But Michelson Left To Start His Own Project. Miichelson Published His First Measurement In 1880, But Newcomb's Measurement Was Substantially Different, And, In 1883, Michelson Revised His Measurement To A Value Closer To Newcomb's. In 1881, Newcomb Discovered The Statistical Principle Now Known As Benford's Law, Formulating The Principle That, In Any List Of Numbers Taken From An Arbitrary Set Of Data, More Numbers Will Tend To Begin With "1" Than With Any Other Digit.I N 1891, Within Months Of Seth Carlo Chandler's Discovery Of The 14-Month Variation Of Latitude, Now Referred To As The Chandler Wobble, Newcomb Explained The Apparent Conflict Between The Observed Motion And Predicted Period Of The Wobble, As Due To Elasticiity; He Used The Variation Of Latitude Observations To Estimate The Elasticity Of Earth, Finding It To Be Slightly More Rigid Than Steel. He Wrote On Economics And His Principles Of Political Economy (1885) Was Described By John Maynard Keynes As "One Of Those Original Works Which A Fresh Scientific Mind, Not Perverted By Having Read Too Much Of The Orthodox Stuff, Is Able To Produce From Time To Time In A Half-Formed Subject Like Economics." He Was Credited By Irving Fisher With The First-Known Enunciation Of The Equation Of Exchange Between Money And Goods Used In The Quantity Theory Of Money. His Reputation Suffers From His Hostility To C. S. Pierce, And Also From Newcomb's Disbelief In The Possibility Of Manned Flight. (Source: Wikipedia).…
