About this Item
Description:
New Haven: Yale University Press, 1936. 8vo, 210 pp. Illustrated with 14 plates and numerous diagrams. Publisher's blue cloth, titled in gilt on backstrip. A very good copy, a few specs and scuffs to the cloth, but clean within and with no marks of previous ownership. § "The history of astronomy is a history of receding horizons." First edition, first printing (no second printing stated). "No modern astronomer made a more profound contribution to our understanding of the cosmos than did Edwin Hubble, who first conclusively demonstrated that the universe is expanding. Basing his theory on the observation of the change in spectra of distant galaxies, called red shift, Hubble showed that this is a Doppler effect, or alteration in the wavelength of light, resulting from the rapid motion of celestial objects away from Earth. In 1935 Hubble described his principal observations and conclusions in the Silliman lectures at Yale University. These lectures were published the following year as The Realm of the Nebulae, which quickly became a classic work." (Yale University Press). Seller Inventory # 126681
