Description

[MANHATTAN PROJECT]: FRANCK JAMES (1882-1964) German physicist, Nobel Prize winner for Physics, 1925. Franck participated in the Manhattan Project during World War II as Director of the Chemistry Division of the Metallurgical Laboratory. Manuscript D.S., James Franck, one page, oblong 8vo, Chicago, Illinois, 28th September 1955. Franck responds to a researcher's questionnaire entitled Whole World Inquiry, comprising four numbered manuscript questions, '1. Were your scientific ''debut'' easy or difficult? 2. Did means of livingâ€¦..enable you to make yourself known in science? Or did you live solely through your work of laboratory? 3. What work (or what discovery) made yourself more famous? Which do you consider as your masterpiece? 4. What is your Maxim of Life?'. Franck has provided his answers alongside each of the questions, responding 'Easy' to number 1, 'Had private means' to number 2, 'I was honoured for my work on the structure of atoms and molecules' to number 3, and 'Justice and Objectivity' to number 4. Signed by Franck at the foot of the page and with his typed address below. Rare. One small tape stain to the lower right corner, not affecting the text or signature, otherwise VG
