Item description from seller

xvi, 450 pp; ads. Original cloth. Cloth very rubbed (this copy was very used, as it should have been). Second Edition. Linus Pauling, in his later years, signed lots of copies of his books on vitamin C, but signed copies of this, his greatest work, are uncommon. This is an especially fine association. SIGNED BY LINUS PAULING to Edward Hughes: "To Eddie Hughes, with sincere/ affection./ Linus Pauling." In the Preface to this second edition, Pauling writes: "I have again to thank many friends for their advice and assistance; I am especially grateful for their aid to Dr. E. W. Hughes, Research Fellow in Chemistry in the California Institute of Technology, and . . ." (p. vii). In the Preface to the first edition (reprinted in this second edition), Pauling included Hughes as first in the list: "I am grateful for advice and assistance in the preparation of the manuscript to many friends, including Dr. E. W. Hughes. . ." (p. x). "In 1924, [Hughes] received a bachelor s degree in chemistry from Cornell and remained there for the next fourteen years. While at Cornell, he gained his Ph.D. in 1935. During this period, he became interested in crystallography after hearing Professor Carlton C. Murdock lecture and went to work with Murdock as a graduate student in the physics department. In 1934, Murdock recommended him as teaching assistant to a visiting professor, Lawrence Bragg. . . . X-ray crystallography was invented by Bragg, and Hughes felt honored to work with him and act as technical editor on his book for the Cornell Press [Atomic Structure of Minerals (1937)]. In 1937, Hughes was again recommended as a teaching assistant, this time to Linus Pauling, who was impressed enough to ask him to act as a technical editor on a book [The Nature of the Chemical Bond] and to offer him a two-year post at Caltech. In 1938, Hughes arrived at Caltech to do research in the chemistry division. . . . Edward Hughes was a respected chemist and continued the pioneering work in crystallography, begun at Caltech by Burdick and Ellis in 1916, when he introduced the 'Least Squares Method' in 1940. This is the universally accepted method for handling the large amount of data involved in the refinement of crystal structure" (online reference).".
