Description
True first edition copy. The first American edition, published by Harper & Brothers, issued in 1938. - Baumgarten p.94. The only children's book written by Haldane, a prominent geneticist credited with coining the term clone. Enigmatic online videographer and purported AI expert Quinn Michaels posits that this book contains vital hidden information conveyed in "spy language", most notably a transistor diagram incorporated into the illustration on page 123, despite the fact that it is commonly held that the transistor was not invented by a Bell Labs team until a decade later. For additional information on Michaels' intriguing analysis enter the title of this book plus the word 'analysis', into the most popular video website. 179 pages. Dust jacket not included. Bookplate and pencilled signature, dated 1937, of Swedish journalist and children's book critic Eva v. Zweigbergk [1906-1984] upon front endpaper. Above-average wear and fading to publisher's green cloth-covered boards. Binding intact with a modest lean. A worthy first edition copy of this fascinating work. Book
