Soft cover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First Trade Paperback Edition. INVALUABLE: INDISPENSABLE, ENTRALLING, AMBITIOUS: AS-NEW First Trade Paperback Edition (Orig. 1995) Fifth Printing (c. 2010): Volume 3 in the series "Weimar and Now: German Cultural Criticism" edited by Anton Kaes w/ Martin Jay & Edward Dimendberg * 6.48" x 9.74" x 1.86", 1.54 kg, xx+810 (830) pp * ABOUT THE BOOK: A laboratory for competing visions of modernity, the Weimar Republic (1918-1933) continues to haunt the imagination of the 20th century. Its political & cultural lessons retain uncanny relevance for all who seek to understand the tensions & possibilities of our age. "The Weimar Republic Sourcebook" represents the most comprehensive documentation of Weimar culture, history, & politics assembled in any language. It invites a wide community of readers to discover the richness & complexity of the turbulent years in Germany before Hitler's rise to power. Drawing from such primary sources as magazines, newspapers, manifestos, & official documents (many unknown even to specialists & most never before available in English), this book challenges the traditional boundaries between politics, culture, & social life. Its 30 chapters explore Germany's complex relationship to democracy, ideologies of "reactionary modernism," the rise of the "New Woman," Bauhaus architecture, the impact of mass media, the literary life, the tradition of cabaret & urban entertainment, & the situation of Jews, intellectuals, & workers before & during the emergence of fascism. While devoting much attention to the Republic's varied artistic & intellectual achievements (the Frankfurt School, political theater, 12-tone music, cultural criticism, photo-montage, & urban planning), the book is unique for its inclusion of many lesser-known materials on popular culture, consumerism, body culture, drugs, criminality, & sexuality; it also contains a timetable of major political events, an extensive bibliography, & capsule biographies. This will be a major resource & reference work for students & scholars in history; art; architecture; literature; social & political thought; & cultural, film, German, & women's studies. * HIGHEST PRAISE: "'The Weimar Republic Sourcebook' is an INVALUABLE resource for understanding one of the most important & resonant eras of the 20th century. SInce the Weimar debate has continued to repeat itself, albeit w/ less intellectual brilliance, this book is as much about the present as about the past. Here is the Weimar era in all its many-voiced & eloquent complexity: most of these texts, even those by the most famous names of the period, appear for the first time in English. This is an INDISPENSABLE, ENTRALLING, properly AMBITIOUS book." -Susan Sontag * ABOUT THE AUTHORS-EDITORS: ANTON KAES is Professor of German & Director of Film Studies at the University of California, Berkeley. He is author most recently of "From Hitler to Heimat: The Return of History as Film" (1989). MARTIN JAY is Sidney Hellman Ehrman Professor of History at the University of California, Berkeley. His books include "Downcast Eyes: The Denigration of Vision in Twentieth-Century French Thought" (California, 1993).

This report distills from available data descriptions of typical human symptoms in reaction to prompt ionizing radiation in the dose range 75 to 4500 rads (cGy) free-in-air. The descriptions correlated symptoms which dose and time over the acute postexposure period of six weeks. their purpose is to provide an empirical base for estimating combat troop performance after a nuclear weapon attack. We divide the dose range of interest into eight subranges associated with important pathophysiological events. For each subrange, we estimate the signs and symptoms manifested by an exposed population--symptom onset, severity, duration, and incidence. The early or prodromial phase of radiation sickness begins about 2 to 4 hours after doses of 300 to 530 rads (cGy). Onset time diminishes with dose, occurring within minutes of exposure to 4500 rods (cGy) . Characteristic prodromal symptoms are nausea, vomiting, anorexia, and diarrhea. The prodromal phase lasts from several days to a matter of hours, depending on the dose. Despite differences of population characteristics, environmental conditions, and medical attention between the exposed persons represented by our data and by battlefield soldiers, we believe these symptom descriptions are relevant to combat personnel. This work was sponsored by the Defense Nuclear Agency. Dr. Anno was born to a Polish mother and a Japanese father, who lived in hiding during Executive Order 9066. A graduate of UC Berkeley, the first biophysics major, he began his career working with rockets and space travel by performing the radiation transport analysis for deep space travel. George would go on to a distinguished national career as an expert in biophysics, especially the effects of acute ionizing radiation on human beings. He studied the effects of radiation on the body. At the Three Mile Island disaster, protocol for evacuation was followed based on his seminal research. Anno would spend the majority of his time working for Pacific Sierra Research Corporation. As the principal author of several often-cited scholarly publications, he continued to be consulted by both the Defense Department and the Dept. of Energy. At age 76, at General Dynamics as senior Staff Scientist, he worked closely with medical doctors and published important mathematical studies of Influenza and Ebola transmission and their effects on populations. H. (Hubert) Rodney Withers (September 21, 1932 - February 25, 2015) was an Australian radiation biologist and physician. He made many contributions to the fields of radiobiology and clinical radiation therapy, but he is best known for his work on post-radiation tissue repair and the effects of ionizing radiation on normal tissues. He received his medical degree from the University of Queensland and his Ph.D. and D.Sc. from the University of London. He worked at the Gray Laboratory in England, the National Cancer Institute, the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, the Prince of Wales Hospital, Sydney, and at UCLA where he served as Professor and Chair of the Department of Radiation Oncology. Withers received numerous awards and honors for his research including the Enrico Fermi Award.

He was a recipient of the Enrico Fermi Award, a Presidential award honoring scientists of international stature for their lifetime achievement in the development, use, or production of energy. It was established in 1956 by the United States Department of Energy in memorial of Italian-American physicist Enrico Fermi and his work in the development of nuclear power. The recipient of the award receives $100,000, a certificate signed by the President and the Secretary of Energy, and a gold medal featuring the likeness of Enrico Fermi. Robert W. Young retired from the Defense Nuclear Agency. This article distills from available data descriptions of typical human symptoms in reaction to prompt total-body ionizing radiation in the dose range 0.5 to 30 Gy midline body tissue. The symptoms are correlated with dose and time over the acute postexposure period of 6 wk. The purpose is to provide a symptomatology basis for assessing early functional impairment of individuals who may be involved in civil defense, emergency medical care and various military activities in the event of a nuclear attack. The dose range is divided into eight subranges associated with important pathophysiological events. For each subrange, signs and symptoms are designated including estimates of symptom onset, severity, duration and incidence. The purpose is to provide an empirical base for estimating combat troop performance after a nuclear weapon attack. Analyses of "composite" data, including the experience of Japanese atomic bomb survivors, was included in this analysis.
