THE NEW YORK UNIVERSITY LIBRARY OF SCIENCE

THE NEW YORK UNIVERSITY LIBRARY OF SCIENCE 

I still have in My personal library three popular science books in THE NEW YORK UNIVERSITY LIBRARY OF SCIENCE "multi-volume series designed for the general reader and spanning the whole range of the natural and physical sciences", edited by SAMUEL RAPPORT and HELEN WRIGHT, which contain fascinating articles such as "The Method of Scientific Investigation" by T. H. Huxley and "How Agassiz Taught Me to See" by Nathaniel Shaler, which every reader will enjoy reading:

1. SCIENCE: Method and Meaning

2. PHYSICS

3. ENGINEERING 

My copies of the above three books,
which were originally published by New York University, are paperback editions published by Washington Square Press/Pocket Books/Simon & Schuster, New York.

I bought many excellent Washington Square Press/Pocket Books/Simon & Schuster inexpensive paperbacks from Pocket Books Distributing Co., Calcutta (Kolkata), 30, Chittaranjan Avenue, Kolkata, which was run by Mr. J.D. Tanna, a warm bookseller, when I was a college student many years ago. (J.D. Tanna later handed over his bookshop, renamed TIMELY BOOKS CENTRE, to his equally warm and friendly son, whom I met a few years ago at a Book Fair held in My home town Guwahati, Assam, India.)

By the way, I have about 3000 books in My personal library, bought over many years. I am not trying to show off. I like My modesty to shine.
