THE SAUL-PAUL SIRAG LIBRARY
Here at Deliberate
Innocence Books we have been entrusted with the disposition of quantum
physicist Saul-Paul Sirag's Math and Physics Library. Do look him - and
the merry band of thinkers and innovators of which he was a part, "The
Fundamental Fysiks Group* - up! (eBay won't allow me to provide outside
links.) This collection is extensive, and is in excellent condition.
Most volumes are distinguished by his distinct signature and a date of
acquisition, supplying provenance. Many exhibit, lightly, his distinct
form of notation, and of "highlighting" by tiny lines - passages he
found worthy - worthy of squiggles, you might say. None render the
texts beyond easy visual grasp, or readableness. All such "flaws", or
enhancements if you will, will be indicated by their degree. I have not found any other
marks or flaws, save his own. So they are, at one and the same time, copies quite functional for practical study, like new in all other
respects - and memorabilia from one of the "Hippies That Saved
Physics"!
*Founded in San Francisco in May 1975 by two physicists, Elizabeth Rauscher and George Weissmann, at the time both graduate students at the University of California, Berkeley. The group held informal discussions on Friday afternoons to explore the philosophical implications of quantum theory. Leading members included Fritjof Capra, John Clauser, Philippe Eberhard, Nick Herbert, Jack Sarfatti, Saul-Paul Sirag, Henry Stapp, and Fred Alan Wolf.
