Edge sun, text light tone with some foxing, otherwise light wear; Dust Jacket edgeworn with small tears and creases, foxed, rub, wear. Solid hardcover. ; First Edition, First Printing of this early Space Race popular technology account. "Worlds in Space, magnificently illustrated with 16 photographs and 48 drawings by Fred L Wolff, tells the history of rocket development thus far and reveals the steps by which man will eventually travel to other planets. Beginning with the establishment of a robot space station, it details the innumerable problems that must be solved before a human being can leave the earth's atmosphere. Zero gravity and its attendant problem of weightlessness, explosive decompression, intense heat created by friction, terrible cold, and the dangers of rapid acceleration and deceleration are discussed with vivid thoroughness. Assuming that the myriad obstacles to man's survival in space can be surmounted, the author describes types and designs of rockets and space stations already on the drawing boards, power plants, launching methods , landing devices, air-conditioning for larger rockets, systems for eating under zero-gravity conditions - in short, a full treatment of the techniques of space travel." ; xi, 212 pages.

Mass market paperback. Zustand: Good. First Printing [Stated]. 192 pages. Illustrations. Diagrams. Appendix 1 and 2 (Glossary of Space Terms). Name stamped inside front cover. Some page discoloration. Martin Caidin (September 14, 1927 - March 24, 1997) was an American author and an authority on aeronautics and aviation. Caidin began writing fiction during 1957, and authored more than 50 fiction and nonfiction books, as well as more than 1,000 magazine articles. His best-known novel is Cyborg, which was the basis for The Six Million Dollar Man franchise. He also wrote numerous works of military history, especially concerning aviation. Caidin flew with the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds demonstration squadron for several months, and was made an honorary member of the U.S. Army's Golden Knights parachute demonstration team. Additionally, Caidin twice won the Aviation/Space Writers Association award for the outstanding author on aviation. Caidin also established a company with the purpose of promoting aeronautics to young people. The book MAN INTO SPACE by Martin Caidin featured astronaut Alan Shepard, Jr.'s experience as the first American launched into space on May 5, 1961 in a Mercury capsule atop a Redstone rocket. The book went beyond the experience of the first Mercury launch in describing the technology, history, and future of manned space exploration. An amusing item appeared among the pictures section in the book's center. A sketch shows a futurized booster with the words, "NOW BOTH THE US AND THE USSR HAVE THEIR SPACEMEN. THE RACE GOES ON.AND THE STARS ARE THE GOAL." The comment was an extreme exaggeration considering Shepard's Mercury had not orbited the Earth while the Russians had succeeded in an orbital manned mission. Only in science fiction is a mission to the stars a goal of the plot, since both landing and departure to return to Earth would be problematic. Fred L. Wolff (Drawings) (illustrator).…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Down at the Double Helix Shoe Store, Mr. Wolff takes us into the realm of his perceptions where we cannot help but glean insights on ourselves and our circumstances. His work is incisive, thought provoking, often humorous, and, on occasion, profanely blunt. The sum of these poems is a new voice that allows us to see our understanding of what comprises happiness from a welcome and empowering viewpoint. Mr. Wolff¿s debut effort is an illuminating no-holds-barred 'must read.'.…

Zustand: very good. Aldershot : Elgar, c1992. Hardcover. Dustjacket. xi, 319 pp. Has the rate of profit been falling in industrialised countries? What are the factors that are responsible for its increase over time and what factors account for its decline. The rate of profit is a key economic variable. It directly affects the rate of economic growth, both as a source of funds and as an inducement for new investment. It also bears on the distribution of income between wage earners and owners of capital. This important volume of original essays undertakes a rigorous statistical analysis of profitability trends and factors that affect their movement. The results indicate that the profit rate in industrialized economies has been declining over the long term, but the trend is far from uniform, with profitability increasing during the 1980s. The authors also find that several factors have played key roles in causing changes in profitability. Amongst the most important are investment, technology change, movements in the real wage, turnover rates, the growth of unproductive labour, structural change in the economy, work effort, labour-capital relations and public policy. International Perspectives on Profitability and Accumulation fills an important gap in the literature on this important economic and policy issue. Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9781852785574.

Hardcover. Zustand: gut. 2004. Die Pflanzenfotografie der Neuen Sachlichkeit nimmt durch zahlreiche Ausstellungen und Buchveröffentlichungen seit den siebziger Jahren einen festen Platz in der Fotogeschichte ein. Der Fotografie von Kristallen hingegen wurde bislang nur wenig Beachtung geschenkt, obwohl renommierte Fotografen der Neuen Sachlichkeit wie Albert Renger-Patzsch, Aenne Biermann, Paul Wolff, Fred Koch oder Paul Dobe nach der Welt der Pflanzen auch die Welt der Minerale und Kristalle entdeckten - und deren so noch nie betrachtete Schönheit enthüllten. Für diese Fotografen stellte die Kristallefotografie ein von der organischen Form der Pflanze ausgehendes Vordringen in das Reich der Anorganika dar. Dabei erstellte kein neusachlicher Fotograf eine solch umfangreiche "fotografische Kristallographie" wie Alfred Ehrhardt, der mit seinen Aufnahmen die Einheit von Geist und Materie postulierte und die Kristallefotografie der Zeit zu ihrem End- und Höhepunkt fortentwickelte. Die Publikation eröffnet erstmals umfassende Einblicke in die vom lebensphilosophischen Zeitgeist geprägte Kristallefotografie der Neuen Sachlichkeit zwischen Ästhetik, Weltanschauung und Wissenschaft. Die vorgestellten Fotografen:Aenne Biermann, Paul Dobe, Alfred Ehrhardt, Heinrich Falck, Lotte Jacobi, Fred Koch, August Kreyenkamp, Albert Renger-Patzsch, Carl Strüwe, Paul Wolff.
