Dear Colleagues and Friends,

We are pleased to offer this fine collection of mathematics and
physics, including a few volumes from the personal library of the
noted physicist Philip M. Morse.  Those volumes bear Dr. Morse's
bookplate.  Professor Morse is best known as the author, with
Herman Feshbach, of the classic work: _Methods of Theoretical
Physics_.

Two of the titles on this list are quite desirable and scarce, and we
list those at the beginning.  The remainder are presented
alphabetically by author. 

As always, please contact us by telephone at 818-766-5156 or by
email at bree@auldbooks.com to reserve any title.  You may pay by
Visa, Mastercard, or check/money order.  Shipping and handling
via 4th class mail are included in the price.  UPS, First Class and
overseas will be billed at cost.
