First edition, first printing. 152pp with monochrome plate frontispiece and 19 further similar plate illustrations. In red cloth boards with silver titles on spine. 8vo. Boards a little worn and marked, rubbed and rounded on corners and spine ends. Previous owner’s name on front free endpaper, a few mild marks on rear endpapers, where it would seem a dust jacket was once taped to the volume. A somewhat romantic exploration of the ideas and inventions associated with electricity, with photographic illustrations including close-ups of atoms and memory sections from the early days of computing.
