In-Band Single-Frequency Signaling. [Manuscript received June 7, 1954]. - [THE MOST INFAMOUS ARTICLE IN BELL]
New York, American Telephone and Telegraph Company, 1954. 8vo. The entire volume XXXIII (Part I-II), 1954 of The Bell System Technical Journal bound in a nice full green cloth. Library stamp to free front end-paper and title page. Minor discolouring to extremities. Binding tight, clean and fresh. Also internally very nice and clean. Pp. 1309-1330. [Entire volume: 1400 pp.]
First edition of this famous and influential paper, which described the process used for routing telephone calls over trunk lines. The article revealed the internal operation of the long distance switching system in use at that time. This information caused hackers and phone phreaks to develop the Blue Box which enabled them to make free long-distance calls. Among the more famous phreaks can be found the two Apple founders Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs. The use of the Blue Box developed into a sub-culture and many of its users ended up with jail sentences for hacking. The article is now widely regarded as being the most infamous article in The Bell System Techinal Journal.

First edition of this classic in hydrodynamics and giving the first measurement of the velocity of the pulse.""In 1821, assisted by his brother Wilhelm, (then only seventeen years old and preparing for his university entrance examination) Weber began a long physical study of the flow and the progress of waves in fluids, particularly in elastic tubes. In their Wellenlehre (1825) they formulated the basic laws of hydrodynamics and were the first to apply that branch of physics to the circulation of the blood."" (DSB).Garrison & Morton, 766. -
Die specifischen Wärmen der Elemente Kohlenstoff, Bor und Silicium. (2 Parts).
Leipzig, Johann Ambrosius Barth, 1875. Contemp. hcalf. Spine gilt. raised bands. Spine slightly rubbed. In ""Annalen der Physik und Chemie. Hrsg. von J.C. Poggendorff"", Bd. 154. X,644 pp. and 5 folded engraved plates. (Entire volume offered). Weber's paper: pp. 367-423 a. pp. 553-582.
First appearance of this importent paper in which Weber was able to explain why the Law of Dulon & Petit, based on the specific heat of only thirteen elements, was only approximately true. ""An explanation of this anomalous behaviour is to be found in the fact that, as shown by the physicist Heinrich Friedrich Weber, and confirmed by many workers in more recent times, the atomic heat increases at different rates with rise of temperature.... A theoretical basis for this law was obtained in more recent times by P. Debye.""(Findley ""A Hundred Years of Chemistry"", p. 77-78).""The three curious exceptions (C, B, Si) to the Dulong-Petit Law which were until now a cause for despair have been eliminated: the Dulong-Petit law for the specific heats of solid elements has become an exceptional rigorous law...""(Weber).On Albert Einstein and Weber's specific heat, see Pais: ""Subtle is the Lord"", pp. 389 ff.

Scarce first edition. ""In the early 1770s, while still studying theology, Weber bought an electrival machine from an old-clothes peddler. The purchase showed its value in 1778 when, just after his ordination, he won the prize from the Bavarian Academy of Sciences for an 'air electrophore', an air condenser with a movable coating, whose action he explained in the modern manner, using 'atmosphere' to mean 'sphere of activity'""(J.L.
