Zustand: FINE. First printing. Although Teller has been described as the father of the hydrogen bomb, this book was written to "share his fascination and joy in science with young and old alike." As such it serves as an introduction to the complicated world of contemporary physics, and especially as a 'bridge' to rocket science mathematics, used in theoretical physics. Illustrated with many figures and including some problems with the answers at the rear. INSCRIBED by Edward Teller on the front endpaper and signed by both Teller and Wilson Talley. Index. xii, 247 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.…

First edition, first printing, presentation copy signed by Edward Teller on the title, and humorously inscribed by his coauthor, UC Davis physicist Wilson Talley to an unnamed recipient: 'To err* is human - To forgive** divine, Wilson Talley. *you ** ahem - me'. Uncommon signed. Though many Manhattan Project scientists felt deeply concerned or ambivalent about the weapons they invented, physicist Edward Teller (1908-2003) was a life-long booster of the technology. In addition to promoting arms build-up and spearheading the development of the hydrogen bomb, he sought out 'civilian' uses for nuclear explosions that would make the technology seem less threatening to the public. As part of Operation Plowshare, under the Atoms for Peace initiative, Teller recommended using nuclear weapons to open harbours and canals, for mining, geological and meterological research, and even highway construction. This volume covers all these applications and others, with significant background on the physics and mathematics of nuclear explosions. First edition, first printing; 8vo; illustrations within the text, light spot affecting the margin of pages 14-20; original grey cloth, titles to spine and upper board in green and black, cloth lightly rubbed at the extremities, a very good copy in the rubbed jacket with several chips, some affecting the title, and some marks and creasing; 320 pp.…
