Mathematics and the Imagination, 1940 1st Ed HC/DJ, Edward Kasner & James Newman

Description: Silicon Valley Fine Books, Sunnyvale, California Rare & used books, collectibles, and more ... Now in our 30th year -- over 25 years on eBay! Mathematics and the Imagination by Edward Kasner & James Newman. Published by Simon & Schuster, 1940, First Edition, hardcover, 380 pages. Very good or better, wee bit of bumping on lower/outer corners of covers, minor foxing (spotting) on endpaper, in a good plus dust jacket (in fresh mylar protector) with a little chipping atop the spine and some additional edgewear including a few small closed tears; overall a surprisingly tight, clean copy. Jacket price is clipped at the bottom of the front inner flap (like all first edition copies I believe) but $2.75 price is present on the rear inner flap. Very scarce/correct first edition with matching 1940 dates on title & copyright pages, red horizontal lines on the title page and Kingsport Press at bottom of copyright page (NOT Haddon Craftsmen which would signify a book club edition, also book club editions have black horizontal lines on the title page). An important work, famous for coining the words googel (hence Google) and googolplex (hence Googleplex). Please check out our other eBay items!
