Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. SIGNED LIMITED FIRST EDITION of Albert Einstein: Philosopher Scientist, # 247 of ONLY 760 numbered copies, signed and dated by Albert Einstein. AN OUTSTANDING COPY IN ORIGINAL SLIPCASE. "The closest Einstein ever came to writing an autobiography. Indispensable" (Abraham Pais, "Subtle is the Lord," 1982, on the Autobiographical Notes in Philosopher-Scientist). The seventh volume in The Library of Living Philosophers series, Albert Einstein: Philosopher-Scientist (Evanston, IL: The Library Living Philosophers, 1949). is a tribute volume with deliberations by Einstein and some of the most important scientists of his era, examining the stunning scale and scope of the Einstein corpus. This important volume contains Einstein's autobiography, itself an noteworthy scientific contribution, specially written for the book, and includes a bibliography of his works plus twenty-five scientists' discussions of Einstein's work and achievements. Contributors include Bohr, Born, Reichenbach, Pauli, and a noteworthy essay by Godel in which he argues that Parmenides correctly explicated change as merely an illusion based upon our conceptual framework and our sensory perceptions. Einstein's response to twenty-five scientists' discussion of his work (including the Einstein-Bohr debates) concludes this cornerstone Einstein acquisition in his "Remarks Concerning the Essays Brought Together in this Co-Operative Volume." What were the famous Einstein-Bohr debates about -- and who "won" them? So many commentators, including the protagonists themselves, have remarked on this clash of the two titans, two determined seekers after truth. Particularly engrossing, Niels Bohr's contribution to this volume of Living Philosophers recalls the countless discussions and decades-long disagreements he and Einstein shared about the future of fundamental physics. "Bohr's account of his discussion with Einstein has been called 'one of the great scientific debates in the history of physics, comparable, perhaps, only to the Newton-Leibniz controversy of the early eighteenth century In both cases it was a clash of diametrically opposed philosophical views in both cases it was a clash between two of the greatest minds of their time'" (Jammer, 120). "It is generally agreed that Bohr's article of 1949, "Discussion with Einstein on Epistemological Problems in Physics" [pp. 199-241] is his finest exposé on complementarity" (Pais, Niels Bohr's Times, 428). As Paul Schilpp relishes in his Preface, "[Bohr's] recollections of conversations with Einstein on the epistemological aspects of physical science would never have come into being, were it not for the peculiar nature of this series." Octavo (approx. 6.75 x 9.75 x 1.75), original publisher's leatherette with gilt image of Einstein's signature on front board, bevelled edges, top edge gilt, pages uncut. Illustrated with 8 figures in text, photographic frontispiece after Yousuf Karsh, photographic and facsimile illustrations, limitation statement bearing Einstein's signature on the front free endpaper. Closed tear on two pages of the Index not affecting readability, else a very fine copy in publisher's original brown-gray slipcase. Lacks rarely found, fragile original glassine. Foundational, even indispensable to any collection of Einstein and modern physics. Best price on the market! Book #Bv2201. $13,500. Other landmarks of science by Newton, Bacon, and Galileo available. Please inquire. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Original brown cloth, top edge gilt, publisher's slipcase. Very fine, with the fragile slipcase in excellent condition. A superb copy. FIRST EDITION. One of 760 numbered copies signed and dated by Einstein. This important volume contains Einstein's autobiography, specially written for the book, a bibliography of his works, twenty-five scientists' discussions of Einstein's work and achievements, with Einstein's replies. Contributors of essays include Niels Bohr, Max Born, Wolfgang Pauli, and Kurt Godel. I. I. Rabi's review in Science hailed this as a "most important and significant volume. It is most difficult to get scientists to write simply and clearly about the fundamentals of their science and the leading philosophical ideas that guide them. In this book there is played out a great scientific drama of the last two decades. The book starts with an intellectual autobiography by Einstein himself. He satirically calls it his obituary. I know of no other to compare with it. Neither Newton nor Maxwell nor any of the other great giants of physics had his Schilpp [the editor] to catalyze such an effort. After reading Einstein's article one realizes the great loss this is to scientific culture" (Science, 21 April 1950). This is an especially fine signed copy of an important book in the Einstein canon. Signed by Author(s).

Edited by Paul Arthur Schilpp. Volume seven of the Library of Living Philosophers. Boni 512. Contains Einstein's autobiography, a bibliography of his work, twenty-five scholar's discussions of Einstein's work and achievements, with Einstein's replies to these various scholars. Includes essays by Bohr, Born, Reichenbach, Pauli, and the well-known essay by Godel in which he argues (based upon his solutions to the field equations of general relativity in 1949) that Parmenides was right in that change is an illusion based upon our conceptual framework and our sensory perceptions.

"In 1943, Kemeny entered Princeton University where he studied mathematics and philosophy, but he took a year off during his studies to work on the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos National Laboratory, where his boss was Richard Feynman. He also worked there with John von Neumann. Returning to Princeton, Kemeny graduated with an A.B. in mathematics in 1946 after completing a senior thesis, titled 'Equivalent logical systems', under the supervision of Alonzo Church. He then remained at Princeton to pursue graduate studies and received a Ph.D. in mathematics in 1949 after completing a doctoral dissertation, titled 'Type-theory vs. set-theory', also under the supervision of Alonzo Church. He worked as Albert Einstein's mathematical assistant during graduate school" (Wikipedia article on John Kemeny). "At age 22, a year before he earned his Ph.D., Kemeny became Albert Einstein's mathematical assistant. I once asked him why Dr. Einstein, of all people, needed a mathematician. With that gentle, mustached smile, John said, 'Einstein wasn't very good at math' (Campion, "True Basic. A Sketch of John Kemeny for the Dartmouth Alumni Magazine"; a .pdf of this article can be found online). "People would ask did you know enough physics to help Einstein? My standard line was: Einstein did not need help in physics. But contrary to popular belief, Einstein did need help in mathematics. By which I do not mean that he wasn't good at mathematics. He was very good at it, but he was not an up-to-date research level mathematician. His assistants were mathematicians for two reasons. First of all, in just ordinary calculations, anybody makes mistakes. There were many long calculations, deriving one formula from another to solve a differential equation. They go on forever. Any number of times we got the wrong answer. Sometimes one of us got the wrong answer, sometimes the other. The calculations were long enough that if you got the same answer at the end, you were confident. So he needed an assistant for that, and, frankly, I was more up-to-date in mathematics than he was" (ask me for the source of this quote and I will tell you). A biography of John Kemeny was published in 2019: John G. Kemeny and Dartmouth College: The Man, the Times, and the College Presidency by Stephen Nelson. The book incorporates material from Kemeny's unpublished autobiography and includes a couple pages on how Kemeny became Einstein's mathematical assistant and their interaction when he was. NOTE: I am offering the trade edition of Albert Einstein: Philosopher-Scientist. There was also a limited and signed edition published in 1949 of 760 copies. Given the celebrity of Einstein, copies of the limited and signed edition always seem to be available (as I write this, six such copies are for sale online). They are nicely done, with the top edge gilt, and with a slipcase, so they are more sumptuous than the trade edition, and with the limited and signed edition of this book, you know you have a genuine Einstein signature. BUT: There is nothing personal about these copies (in rare instances Einstein did add a personal inscription to a limited and signed copy). So aside from differences in condition, these 760 copies are identical (unless you think a copy with a lower number is better than one with a higher number). The copy of the trade edition I am offering is in a very different category, because it was inscribed, and given personally, by Einstein to the recipient. And the recipient was someone who mattered to him. John Kemeny was a graduate student at Princeton when he became Einstein's mathematical assistant. This copy was Einstein's gift to "my dear Kemeny". The fact that John Kemeny went on to fame. Signed by Author(s).

xvi, 781 pp. Large 8vo, publisher's cloth in publisher's slipcase. First edition; No. 225 of 760 copies, signed and dated by Albert Einstein. A fine copy. There is some slight use to the slipcase, and small areas of paper loss at the corners of the slipcase. The Library of Living Philosophers, Volume VII.

First edition, signed limited issue, number 555 of 760 copies signed and dated by Einstein. The book and slipcase are in fine condition, and they are housed in the elusive original cardboard packaging, which is numbered to match the limitation. This is the first copy that we have handled in its original packaging. Issued on his 70th birthday, this handsomely produced volume includes the first appearance in print of Einstein's autobiography, specially written for the book and itself an important scientific contribution. In addition to the autobiographical notes, in which Einstein famously describes the awakening of his scientific curiosity when shown a compass as a child, the book presents a series of essays on Einstein's work and achievements by 25 of his contemporaries, including Niels Bohr, Max Born, Kurt Gödel, and Wolfgang Pauli. Several of these have become seminal papers in their own right: "Bohr's account of his discussion with Einstein has been called 'one of the great masterpieces of modern scientific reporting'" (Jammer, p. 136) and Gödel's "appears to be the only published piece by [him] that deals with philosophical issues not directly concerned with mathematics" (Feferman, p. 199). A bibliography of Einstein's writings is also included. This copy is accompanied by correspondence between a former owner, George Pratt of Portland, Oregon, and the Open Court Publishing Company, who issued the Library of Living Philosophers series from 1959 onwards. Pratt's name is written in ink on the cardboard packaging. Primarily dated between 1974 and 1975, the typed letters (mostly supplied in photocopy) detail Pratt's successful verification of Einstein's signature. They include testimony from R. F. Gehner, a representative of the George Banta Publishing Company (printer of the series), in which Gehner recounts personally delivering 760 copies of Philosopher-Scientist to Einstein and observing him sign them. A portion of the original glassine jacket is also present in the envelope. Weil Appendix, p. 41. Solomon Feferman, introductory note to Gödel's Collected Works, vol. 2, 1990; Max Jammer, The Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics, 1974. Octavo. Portrait frontispiece after Yousuf Karsh and plate (facsimile of Einstein's handwriting and portrait in his studio with the editor). Original brown morocco-grain cloth over bevelled boards, spine lettered and ruled in gilt, gilt facsimile of Einstein's signature to front board, top edge gilt, others untrimmed. With original brown card slipcase and the original cardboard packaging, the latter annotated "no. 555". Housed in a brown quarter morocco solander box by the Chelsea Bindery. All in fine condition.

First edition. LIMITED EDITION SIGNED BY EINSTEIN. First edition, number 629 of 760 numbered copies signed and dated by Einstein. This important volume contains Einstein's autobiography, specially written for the book, and itself an important scientific contribution. It also includes a bibliography of his works, twenty-five scientists' discussions of Einstein's work and achievements, with Einstein's response in his 'Remarks Concerning the Essays Brought Together in this Co-Operative Volume'. Contributors of essays include Niels Bohr, Max Born, Wolfgang Pauli, and Kurt Gödel. Nobel laureate Isidore Rabi's review hailed this as a most important and significant volume: "It is most difficult to get scientists to write simply and clearly about the fundamentals of their science and the leading philosophical ideas that guide them. Yet these very attitudes, preferences, and tastes are the fundamental ingredients which give quality, differentiation, and individuality to scientific creation and discovery" (Science 3 (1950), pp. 409-410). The book begins with Einstein's 'Autobiographical Notes'. "Everyone who knows Professor Einstein personally is all too well aware of his extreme shyness and his honest and forthright humility. I do not believe that there would have been one chance in ten thousand that the world would ever have secured an autobiography from the hand of Professor Einstein, if the unique nature of the Library of Living Philosophers had not finally convinced him of the worth-while-ness and significance of such an 'obituary', as he calls his autobiography. Einstein's 'Autobiographical Notes' in themselves assure, therefore, the unique importance of this volume" (Preface, p. xiv). Perhaps the most famous contribution other than by Einstein himself is Bohr's 'Discussion with Einstein on Epistemological Problems in Atomic Physics' "Bohr's account of his discussion with Einstein has been called 'one of the great masterpieces of modern scientific reporting.' According to Abraham Pais 'nowhere in the literature can a better access to [Bohr's] thinking be found'" (Jammer, Philosophy of Quantum Mechanics, p. 136). There is also Gödel's 'A Remark about the Relationship between Relativity Theory and Idealistic Philosophy,' a seminal paper on the concept of time, which "appears to be the only published piece by Gödel that deals with philosophical issues not directly concerned with mathematics" (S. Feferman, Introductory note, Gödel's Collected Works, Vol. II, p. 199). In Hans Reichenbach's 'The Philosophical Significance of the Theory of Relativity,' the "argument over the nature and role of conventions in science reach[ed] its highest level of sophistication The question is whether the choice of a geometry is empirical, conventional, or a priori" (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy). "In this book there is played out a great scientific drama of the last two decades. The central theme is not a matter which is strictly scientific. It is not whether quantum mechanics is correct in the sense that it gives a true or false description of physical phenomena. It is agreed that quantum mechanics has been extraordinarily fertile in predicting new phenomena which have been verified by experiment and that it has reconciled a whole host of seemingly contradictory experimental results. "The sole question is whether quantum mechanics is satisfactory from the philosophic and aesthetic point of view, and whether it is a good point of departure for a more profound understanding of physical phenomena. "The book starts with an intellectual autobiography by Einstein himself. He satirically calls it his obituary. It is a singularly moving and charming document. I know of no other to compare with it. Neither Newton nor Maxwell nor any of the other great giants of physics had his Schilpp to catalyse such an effort. After reading Einstein's article one realises the great loss this is to scientific culture. "Einstein traces the development of his scientific attitudes frankly and objectively with many amusing digressions on education and other topics. He describes the crosscurrents of the scientific thinking of his day and the points of departure from which he made his great early contributions to statistics, quantum theory and relativity. It is an entrancing story. At the end it becomes manifest that relativity and field theory are his great loves. In these fields and modes of thought he finds real joy and comfort of spirit. Quantum theory, which has so completely pervaded the thinking of this age, leaves him quite cold. To him it is a provisional and useful structure but only, so to speak, 'what to do till the doctor comes.' Yet as becomes clear in later articles particularly those of Bohr, Born, and Pauli Einstein, almost more than anyone else after Planck, formulated the leading ideas on which quantum mechanics is founded. From a reading of Einstein's article, one has the impression that he never permitted himself to grasp the importance and significance of his own tremendous contributions to quantum theory. "For all the revolution which he brought to modern physics, Einstein remains the great classicist. Statistics for him are a means of gaining knowledge in situations where one is of necessity ignorant of the precise values and properties of many of the variables. However, to introduce a statistical interpretation into the very fundamental relations of physics, into the simplest conceivable physical situations, is repugnant to him. It is best summed up in his statement that he is willing to believe that the dear God plays dice, but not according to fixed rules. "With this attitude, Einstein has withdrawn himself from the mainstreams of physics of the last two decades. He has devoted himself to what he believes will be the right path to the construction of a unified field theory, which will combine the gravitational and electromagnetic properties of matter. Such a program, if successful, would leave no room for such empi.
