Item description from seller

55 pp, bound in green cloth with gilt spine lettering. As-new copy in a very good dust jacket with a few tiny tears, some rubbing to rear panel. Isidor Isaac Rabi (1898-1988) "was an American physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1944 for his discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance, which is used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). He was also one of the first scientists in the United States to work on the cavity magnetron, which is used in microwave radar and microwave ovens" (wiki).
