Inhaltsangabe

Book by Pauling Linus Ikeda Daisaku

�ber die Autorinnen und Autoren

Linus Pauling, the world's only winner of two unshared Nobel Prizes (chemistry in 1954 and peace in 1962), born in Portland Oregon, he received his B.S. in chemical engineering at Oregon State University. In 1925 he was awarded a Ph.D. in physical chemistry at the California Institute of Technology. A full professor there since 1932, Pauling left in 1963 to become a staff member at the Center for the Study of Democratic Institutions where he largely devoted himself to the study of the problems of peace and war. Returning to academia in 1967, Pauling spent most of his time teaching at Stanford University, 1969-1974, where he was appointed Emeritus Professor of Chemistry in 1974.

Daisaku Ikeda, studied philosophy, politics, literature, art, economics, law, chemistry, and other subjects under his mentor Josei Toda and, in 1960, succeeded him as president of Soka Gakkai, a position held until 1979. Since 1975 he has been president of Soka Gakkai International (SGI), a lay Buddhist organization for the promotion of peace, culture, and education, with a membership of eight million in Japan and 1.2 million in other countries. He is the founder of a university, junior and senior high schools, elementary schools, a kindergarten, two art museums, the Institute of Oriental Philosophy, the Min-on Concert Association, now the largest group of international musical and cultural exchange in Japan, and is honorary president of the Seikyo Press.

Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
