    Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Hardcover. 4to. The Limited Editions Club, New York. 1982. Illustrated with Black and White Plates. Number 1602 out of 2000 signed limited copies. Slipcase with light shelf-wear present. Bound in cloth boards. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Eugene O'Neill mined the tragedies of his own life for this depiction of a seedy, skid row saloon in 1912, peopled by society's failures: worn-out anarchists, failed con artists, drifters, whores, pimps, and informers. The pipe-dreaming drunks of Harry Hope's bar numb themselves with rotgut gin and make grandiose plans, while waiting for the annual appearance of the big-spending, fast-talking salesman, Hickey. But this year's visit fails to bring the expected good times, as a changed Hickey tries to rouse the barflies from their soothing stupor with a proselytizing message of salvation through self-knowledge. Considered by many to be the Nobel Prize-winning playwright's finest work, The Iceman Cometh exposes the human need for illusion as an antidote to despair. E-153; 4to 11" - 13" tall.

This rarity offers a concise and fascinating record of the progress in the early communications satellites: SCORE, COURIER, ECHO, WET FORD, RELAY, TELSTAR, and SYNCOM. Jaffe explains the requirements for communications satellites, the advantages and disadvantages of proposed systems, suitable orbits, and techniques for achieving these orbits. Mr. Jaffe provides an introduction to orbital mechanics and a discussion of some technical parameters. He examines potential sources of space power for satellites and provides a foundation for conjecture on the future of man-made earth satellites. To round out this excellent treatment of this exciting phase of space technology, Mr. Jaffe outlines the federal legislation creating the Communications Satellite Corporation - a new kind of private enterprise that operates commercial communications satellites. Leonard Jaffe was the Director of Communication and Navigation Programs in the Office of Space Science and Applications of NASA. Since 1958 he was in charge of NASA satellite activities. He served as Chairman of the NASA International Ground Station Committee of eleven nations.
