Many Duotone full page photographic illustrations. Includes English title page on verso of Hebrew title page. Illustrated with a number of b/w facsimile photographs of important figures and histor…ical casts from certain plays performed by Habimah.The book is a history of Habimah ("The Stage") which was founded in Moscow in 1917 under the Moscow Art Theatre. Habimah was the first professional group to ever perform their plays in Hebrew. Led by Nahum Zemach, the company aspired to portray the problems of the Jewish people. Habimah had a few problems of its own; many members of the Communist Party opposed the existence of Habimah. Stalin, however, allowed the group to continue to operate. In 1926, the company went abroad on tour. The following year, in the United States, Habimah split. Zemach and several additional actors remained in the U.S., while others decided to settle in the British Mandate of Palestine (Eretz Israel). Tel Aviv was the new home for Habimah. In 1945, Habimah moved into the building in which it now resides, in the heart of Tel Aviv. Thirteen years later, it became the National Theater of Israel. Each photo has Yiddish and English description.

M. S. Blackett' (see below), with Blackett's ownership inscription in blue ink to front free endpaper.First English edition, with a preface by Einstein, of this work arguing for nuclear disarmament, translated by the gardener, novelist, and anarchist Edward Byams, this copy from the library of Nobel Prize-winning physicist Patrick Blackett, whose own work is discussed at length in the book.Jules Moch (1893-1985) worked as a French Resistance organiser during the war, later became a senior minister in several post-war governments, and was France's delegate to the UN Disarmament Committee for 1951-1960. It was this latter role that informed the principles he sets forth in Human Folly which argue for multilateral nuclear disarmament. Divided into two parts, the first examines the destructive capacities of modern warfare before tracing the recent history of disarmament negotiations. Moch attempts to represent both Soviet and Western positions with fairness, concluding that the divisions between the two are gradually narrowing. Though he does not regard the situation as entirely hopeless, he presents it as one of pressing urgency. The preface by Albert Einstein, one of Moch's most eminent supporters, makes clear peace can only arise from political will: 'Those who do not believe in the possibility of the attainment of a lasting and assured peace, or have not the courage to act accordingly, are ripe for destruction' (p. 8). Provenance: front free endpaper with the ownership inscription of Patrick Blackett (1897-1974) with his occasional underlining throughout and one word ('Target?') in pencil to the top of p. 10. Blackett was awarded the 1948 Nobel Prize in Physics for his pioneering work in nuclear physics and cosmic radiation, including experiments demonstrating nuclear transmutation and important early research into the positron. During the Second World War, he headed Operational Research at the Admiralty, where his statistical criticism of the RAF blanket bombing campaigns led to increasing ostracism from the military authority. His opposition to mass destruction later informed his belief that Britain should not develop nuclear weapons. Combined with his openly socialist views, this attracted the attention of MI5 and led to his inclusion on George Orwell's list of alleged 'crypto-communists', contributing to his marginalisation by the post-war Labour government. Blackett's book The Military and Economic Consequences of Atomic Energy (1948) is discussed at length by Moch (pp. 117-19). Written before the development of second-generation thermonuclear weapons, Blackett had estimated that thousands of atomic bombs would be required to destroy the United States or the Soviet Union when at the time, only a few dozen existed. As Moch observes on p. 121, however, 'today a few dozen thermonuclear bombs would produce the same results'. It is particularly notable that Blackett has not annotated the passages explicitly discussing his work. This copy of Human Folly is offered with Blackett's pamphlet The Atom and the Charter, which discusses the extent to which 'the advent of atomic bombs necessitates changes in the procedure for the applicatio.
