Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Y3 - A first edition (stated) hardcover book SIGNED and inscribed by Don Carleton to previous owner on the title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket that is mylar protected. Dust jacket has soiled patch with chipping on the opposite side of the front top, book has some residue on the front top edge, some scattered light stains and scuffing on the page edges, dust jacket and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. Foreword by Morley Safer. 10.25"x7.25", 375 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Conversations with Cronkite gives readers a rare glimpse into the life and times of the late Walter Cronkite, in his own words. The book contains selections from interviews between the legendary journalist and an experienced oral historian - Cronkite's friend, Dr. Don Carleton. The relationship between Cronkite and the Dolph Briscoe Center for American History was forged in 1988 when Carleton invited the legendary CBS newsman to make the Center the permanent archival home for his personal and professional papers. In 1989 Cronkite asked Carleton to assist him with the research and preparation for his autobiography. Every three to four months, for a period stretching over four years, they met for two or three days, sometimes longer, for Carleton to interview Cronkite and to record the recollections of his extraordinary life and career. Eventually they produced more than sixty hours of recordings and thirteen hundred pages of transcript. While Cronkite used the interviews as the basis of his 1996 memoir, A Reporter's Life, the interviews themselves have never been published. With the publication of Conversations with Cronkite, readers have the opportunity to read the behind-the-scenes stories of his life, edited by Carleton to focus on key events, issues, and themes. More than just oral history transcripts, these are the intimate conversations of two friends, covering virtually every aspect of Cronkite's life and career. Illustrated with photographs from the Cronkite Papers, Conversations with Cronkite gives the readers the opportunity to once again hear the voice of "the most trusted man in America." Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. Signed by Author.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The pioneering surgeon Dr. Denton Cooley performed his first human heart transplant in 1968 and astounded the world in 1969 by conducting the first successful implantation of a totally artificial heart in a human being. Over the course of his career, Cooley and his associates performed thousands of open-heart operations and pioneered the use of new surgical procedures. Of all his achievements, however, Cooley was most proud of the Texas Heart Institute, which he founded in 1962 with a mission to use education, research, and improved patient care to decrease the devastating effects of cardiovascular disease.In 100,000 Hearts, Cooley tells about his childhood in Houston, his education at the University of Texas, his medical-school training at the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston and Johns Hopkins, and his service in the Army Medical Corps. While at Johns Hopkins, Cooley assisted in a groundbreaking operation to correct an infant's congenital heart defect, which inspired him to specialize in heart surgery.Cooley's detailed descriptions of working in the operating room at crucial points in medical history offer a fascinating perspective on the distance medical science traveled in just a few decades. Pioneering surgeon Dr. Denton Cooley recalls his extraordinary career and achievements, which include performing the first successful heart transplant in the United States and the first clinical implantation of a totally artificial heart in a human being.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. P4 - A first edition (stated) hardcover book SIGNED by Kenneth Ashworth on the title page in very good condition in very good dust jacket that is mylar protected. Dust jacket and book have some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. Foreword by Robert M. Berdahl. 9.25"x6.25", 239 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. The years 1969-1973 were a tumultuous time on university campuses throughout the United States. Student protests against the Vietnam War led to a broad rejection of authority and institutions that spread across the country. The University of Texas did not become one of the centers of student revolt, but it did not escape them either. Much of the tumult on the Austin campus in these years, however, resulted from politics within the university. In Horns of a Dilemma: Coping with Politics at the University of Texas, Kenneth Ashworth relates what it was like to work for the UT System at a time when the university's board of regents and system administrators struggled for control. At the center of the action was Frank Erwin, chairman of the university's board of regents, a hard-driving, hard-drinking, well-connected political operator who made the University of Texas his passion. He tolerated no opposition to his plans for the university, cutting down his opponents and critics as relentlessly as he cut down the trees and their student defenders that stood in the way of the expansion of the Texas football stadium. In this insightful memoir, Ashworth provides both the eyewitness account of a participant and the analytical perspective of forty years of subsequent work in Texas higher education. Ashworth worked with, occasionally around, and sometimes against Erwin, other regents, and university leaders on behalf of the university. Throughout the book he keeps coming back to the existential dilemmas he faced - the conflict between what loyalty he owed to his superiors, on the one hand, and to the university, on the other.
