This copy, the scarce Oxford Press imprint in green oxford cloth, and very good, unclipped orange jacket, barely sunned on the spine. A handsome collector's copy. Von Neumann was generally regarded as the foremost mathematician of his time[2] and s…aid to be "the last representative of the great mathematicians". Von Neumann founded the field of continuous geometry.[75] It followed his path-breaking work on rings of operators. In mathematics, continuous geometry is a substitute of complex projective geometry. kHe was a pioneer of the application of operator theory to quantum mechanics in the development of functional analysis, and a key figure in the development of game theory and the concepts of cellular automata, the universal constructor and the digital computer.

Von Neumann discovered continuous geometry in 1935 during the course of his research on rings of operators in Hilbert space…s. The present works collects many (though not all, see Halperin's foreword) of von Neumann's results in this area. A very attractive copy of this posthumous work based on lectures given by von Neumann in 1936 and 1937.

First edition of these notes capturing von Neumann's thought as he developed his major contributions to lattice theory: his concepts of a "continuous geometry" and a "regular ring". Von Neumann, a founding member of the Institute for Advanced Study, delivered these lectures in the spring of 1936: they were recorded by Dr L. Roy…Wilcox (1912-1999), who had just obtained his doctorate in mathematics from Chicago. Von Neumann regarded Wilcox's notes highly enough to make efforts to publish them: his other work intervened but they did eventually appear, posthumously, in the Continuous Geometry volume of 1960. Quarto (276 x 216 mm). Together, 76 mimeographed leaves, extensive formulae in the text. Original yellow quarter buckram, light grey stiff paper covers. Light bumping, faint sunning to spine, contents crisp: a very good copy indeed.
