Item description from seller

1939. This is the original 1939 edition -- NOT print on demand edition or modern reprint. Good condition. Light wear/soil to edges of the cover. Reprinted from the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Vol. 25, No. 3, March 1939, pages 153-158. This volume was among several dozen books from Temple Rice Hollcroft's library that we were lucky enough to purchase at auction in New Jersey. Several of the books contain his ink stamp, signature, or a presentation inscription to him. Unfortunately, this volume does not have those signs of his ownership. [But please check our inventory for several others that do]. The American mathematician Temple Rice Hollcroft (1889 - 1967) received B.S. in 1912 and A.B. in 1914 from Hanover College and then A.M. in 1915 from the University of Kentucky. He received his Ph.D. in 1917 from Cornell University under Virgil Snyder. Hollcroft was a mathematics professor at Wells College from 1918 to 1954, from which he retired as professor emeritus. Hollcroft served for 14 years as Associate Secretary of the American Mathematical Society. In 1932 in Zurich he was an Invited Speaker of the International Congress of Mathematician (ICM). His subject was THE GENERAL WEB OF SURFACES AND THE SPACE INVOLUTION DEFINED BY IT. Being invited to talk at the ICM has been called "the equivalent of induction to a hall of fame." - from Wikipedia. Softcover (stapled wraps). Good condition. Illus. by NOT a library discard. pp. 153-158. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Description de la boutique

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.
