Lightly Used, Very Good + With Faint Bookseller's Stamp On Front Pastedown. Dust Jacket With Wear At Edges, Not Price-Clipped. Well-Meaning Questions Based On An Adversarial View Of History As A Zero-Sum Game As Asked By Someone With No Expertise In Government Administration Or Social Psychology Or Indeed History, The Questions Were Posed To A Panel Of Somewhat Well-Known Personalities With Presumed Good Will And Social Influence But Only A Few With World Class Intellectual Achievements And None With Any Long-Term Experience Working In A Government Administrative Program, And None With Known Expertise Or Originality In Psychology Or Social Psychology, The Lack Of Real Expertise In Government Limits Their Ability To Speak On Any Question Requiring Government Involvement; And Their Lack Of Deep Knowledge Of Human Psycho-History Limited The Usefulness Of Their Well-Meaning Comments On The Future Of Human Individual Behavior. In Other Words, A 1940'S Poll Comparable To A Modern News Or Facebook Discussion Which Is Interesting Only As A Good Example Of How The Celebrity-Comment Format Is Not Only Not New, It's The Basis Of Printed Mass-Market Communication And Has Been "Forever". This Model Of Establishing "Acceptable" Thought And Conceptual Paradigms Through Celebrity Discussion Depends Upon One Primary Method: Avoidance Of Any Direct Criticism Of Anyone For Making "Stupid" Or Immoral" 'Unethical" Judgments, And Removing Any Hint That The Statements Of Others Should Be Evaluated On Those Grounds. As The Chinese Government Just Very Recently Has Started To Move In The Direction Of Stigmatizing The Stupid And Immoral And Explaining Why, They Seek The Moral High Ground Long Claimed By The West, Which Largely Refuses To Stigmatize The Stupid Or Immoral. The Only Explanation Iks That The Public Has An Overwhelming Need To Believe That Their Leaders Have A Philosophy Of Government And Behavior When There Is No Evidence Of Such Anywhere; Probably A Need To Substitute Something For The Blind Obedience And Loyalty Which Characterized Pre-Democratic Life Everywhere.

He was appointed in 1855 to the Liverpool Compass Committee which investigated the deviation of the compass in wooden and iron ships in response to losses at sea caused by compass errors. In 1856 he and his his wife sailed on the maiden voyage of the "Royal Charter" to Australia and back, to make systematic observations on the magnetism of iron ships. He was awarded an honorary MA degree at Melbourne University during this visit. His pleasing results were published in 1859 after his death. (Ferguson 15510. Publisher's catalogue at rear.

Hardcover. Presumed first edition/first printing. 2 volume set. Includes: illustrations, index. xxxiv, 399 and iv, 508, [6] This is one of the Publications of the North Carolina Historical Commission. From WIkipedia: "Archibald DeBow Murphey (1777 1832) was a North Carolina politician known as the "Father of Education" in his state for his proposals that benefited public works and public education. Murphey was born near Red House Presbyterian Church in Orange County, North Carolina (in an area that would later become Caswell County). His father Archibald Murphey was a Pennsylvania revolutionary officer, while his mother, Jane DeBow was from New Jersey. Archibald was one of seven children. He entered the University of North Carolina in 1796 and graduated in 1799 with honors. Murphey served as a professor at his college for a few years, then moved to Hillsborough to study law with William Duffy from July to November 1801 at the home now known as Twin Chimneys. He married Jane Armistead Scott and bought the Hermitage plantation from Jane Armistead Scott's father, John Scott. Murphey was very active in business and political affairs and represented Orange County in the North Carolina State Senate from 1812 to 1818. Murphey was well known for his proposals regarding internal improvements, public schools, and constitutional reform. In 1817, Murphey submitted a legislative report recommending that North Carolina create a publicly financed system of education. In 1819, he drafted a document proposing a program to build roads and canals throughout the state. This proposal was ignored by Murphey's fellow legislators. In 1818, he was elected a superior court judge by the legislature, but gave up the position after two years to concentrate on his worsening financial situation and to research and publish a history of the State of North Carolina. Unsuccessful in securing a seat on the North Carolina Supreme Court, he nevertheless sat on the court in its early years to fill in when any of the three judges on the court had to disqualify themselves because of their previous law practices. Murphey Hall at UNCMurphey did not have much luck in accomplishing any of his goals. His state history was never written, lacking the funding that it needed. He did however collect papers that were helpful for later historians. Meanwhile, Murphey's financial problems were getting worse and worse. Being unable to pay his debts, Murphey was even put in jail for twenty days in Greensboro, North Carolina in 1829. Archibald Murphey died at Twin Chimneys in Hillsborough on February 1, 1832. He is buried at the Presbyterian Church in Hillsborough, North Carolina. The town of Murphy, North Carolina (despite its spelling) was named after him. Murphey Traditional Academy, an elementary school in Greensboro, North Carolina, also bears his name, as well as Murphey Hall at the University of North Carolina, and several other schools in Orange and Caswell County."
