Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Paperback, 8vo (23 cm), 216 pp. Text in English. Cover faded, otherwise in good condition. A significant study produced by the Science Council of Canada in the late 1970s, this work examines the structural weaknesses of Canadian industry through a technological lens. Britton and Gilmour argue that underinvestment in research and development, combined with dependency on foreign technology, limited Canada's industrial competitiveness. The book reflects a pivotal moment in Canadian policy debates, balancing scholarly analysis with recommendations for national innovation strategy. Now increasingly uncommon, it provides an important perspective on the history of Canadian industrial development and economic policy. Seller Inventory # 003422

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Ægidius Gutbier; Johann Michael Gutbier. Novum Domini Nostri Jesu Christi Testamentum Syriace; Lexicon Syriacum. Hamburg: Typis & Impensis Auctoris, 1664; Nürnberg: Typis & Sumptibus Gutbirianis, 1706. First edition of the Syriac New Testament; new, corrected and expanded edition of the Lexicon. Contemporary full vellum, 12mo (17 cm), engraved title to the New Testament. [32], 606 [i.e. 604]; 55, [1]; [50], 146, [50] pp. Text in Syriac and Latin. Vellum darkened and lightly stained, spine with creases and small wormholes; interior toned with scattered foxing. Two leaves in the Lexicon with small rectangular cut-outs, not affecting the printed text, as visible in the supplied photographs; engraved title well struck. Binding sound and unsophisticated. Gutbier's Novum Testamentum Syriace (1664) is among the earliest printed editions of the Syriac New Testament, issued from Hamburg with privilege. Based on codex Ambrosianus and other manuscripts, it reflects the 17th-century effort to recover the Peshitta as a witness to biblical text. The accompanying Lexicon Syriacum appears here in the 1706 Nürnberg edition prepared by Johann Michael Gutbier, expanded and corrected from earlier versions, with spicilegium, critical notes, and catalogues. The binding unites these two landmark works of Syriac philology, offering both text and tools for interpretation. Rare in contemporary vellum, copies combining both the New Testament and the Lexicon are especially prized in the history of biblical scholarship and Syriac studies. Seller Inventory # 003423
