About this Item
'Science Museum (London) illustrated booklets.' Written by FAB Ward (Francis Alan Burnett) the 'Keeper of the Department of Physics at Science Museum.' Signed by FAB Ward ( 'FAB Ward, 21st July 1966' ) at the bottom of the title page. Once listed this will be the Only signed book of any of FAB Ward's books for sale on the Internet. What prompted this exception? Perhaps J.T. Fraser. It was his book. I purchased a number of his books some years ago in Westport, Connecticut where Dr. Fraser lived. This book has his bookplate on the inside front cover. Julius Thomas Frazer who made 'important scholarly contributions to the interdisciplinary Study of Time' and whose 'work has strongly influenced thinking about the nature of time across the disciplines from physics to sociology, biology to comparative religion, was a seminal figure in the general interdisciplinary study of temporality.' Dr. Fraser was also a founding member of the International Society for the Study of Time. You can read a lot more about him in his Wikipedia profile. The covers have some mild wear but are solid. The rear cover has some spotting. The interior is very clean. There are color photographs on the right-side pages, text on the left. No conspicuous creasing. No markings or attachments (other than bookplate). No writing other than the author's signature. Seller Inventory # 003704
