Fine/N/A. white titles spine; illustrated by b/w. line drawings & photo's.; "the number of days lost through occupationally induced ill health and disease in many organisations can be dramatically reduced.

Description:
Galton Foundation, Cambridge, 1985. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. Professor Parkes writes: With complete failure at school and no more than a second class pass degree as a start, how did I get by? What, I think, saved me was an inquiring mind, an urge to work and entrepreneurial zest, But I was an innovator rather than a consolidator, and once anything I was involved with got off the ground I tended to lose interest and become fertile soil for something else. I was incredibly lucky: World War I robbed me of an education but gave my father the chance to get me to Cambridge without one. I stumbled into reproductive biology in its early days and before this went stale on me, I was stirred up by World War II and the re-birth of the NIMR at Mill Hill. Then came the freezing saga and the olfactory block to conception. Add to these contact with the FPA, the IPPF, WHO, new Societies, new Journals, my move to Cambridge, the Nuffield Unit in Uganda and finally…

His father had owned extensive nursery gardens in Grantchester from which he achieved fame, a fortune and medals from the Royal Horticultural Society, as the result of his cultivation of dahlias. This allowed the son not only to purchase the Old Vicarage but to devote his time to a wide variety of the gentler arts, and these included research into the history of the village. It is therefore appropriate that there should once again be some record of the village as it now stands. The drawings in this volume,…

Brown Dog Books, Bath, Somerset, 2017. First Edition. Softcover. As New/N/A. This is the first of an intended eight volume series dedicated to the teachings of G.I Gurdjieff and his student prodigy, P.D. Ouspensky. Volume One is mainly concerned with esoteric psychology according to Gurdjieff; with a few elements added from elsewhere. Most of what we see on our bookshelves today, pertaining to Gurdjieff and Ouspensky, belongs to the last century and is written in a form and style typical of that era. The exception being Gurdjieff's magnum opus - Beelzebub's Tales to his Grandson. It is my intention to create a synergy of all the materials out there and render them more accessible and lucid for the reader in this, the 21st century. In just eight volumes, I will present a synthesis of all those esoteric materials from the past - spread over perhaps as many as 200 volumes in all. The result will be a succinct collection of condensed and uniquely structured materials, which will provide the…

What could they find to eat in that empty house . what, if not me so conveniently to hand? I lay awake straining for the gnawing through the lath and plaster which would mean they were on their way.' Sylvia, 7-year-old darling of a middle-class Norwich family, can scarcely believe her luck at being allowed to stay with Maud's family in their cottage opposite the Cross Keys pub. Maud is her family's housemaid, independent of spirit and tart of tongue. Sylvia's mother, understanding nothing of the fierce rural poverty of the 1920s, assumes that Maud's impeccable city…

Beginning with the LED lamps and displays, whose principles are discussed, the author devotes approximately one-third of the book to the various solid state photodetectors, the photoconductor, photodiode, avalanche photodiode and phototransistor. The principles of thermal and shot noise are introduced in order to assess the signal-to-noise ratio and noise equivalent power (NEP) of these photodetectors. The second half of the book begins with a detailed account of the solar cell, including its electrical and optical characteristics and a discussion of present and future applications and the economics of its future development. The next section deals with the laser diode, the probable source for all future optical communication systems. A detailed discussion of the double…
