New York: The Free Press, 1991. First Printing [Stated]. Hardcover. 25 cm. xiii, [1], 369, [1] pages. References. Index. DJ has some wear and soiling and is taped over the boards. Jeffrey C. Herf (born April 24, 1947) is an American historian. He is Distinguished University Professor of modern European, in particular modern German, history at the University of Maryland, College Park. Herf's father escaped from Nazi Germany in 1937 and immigrated to the United States. Herf graduated in history from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 1969 and received his Ph.D. in sociology from Brandeis University in 1981. Before joining the faculty at the University of Maryland, he taught at Harvard University and Ohio University. He has published essays in The American Interest, The Washington Post, Commentary, Partisan Review, The Times of Israel, and The New Republic. In his 1984 book, Reactionary Modernism: Technology, Culture and Politics in Weimar and the Third Reich, drawing on critical theory, in particular ideology critique, Herf coined the term "reactionary modernism" to describe the mixture of robust modernity and an affirmative stance toward progress combined with dreams of the past, a highly technological romanticism, which was a current in the thinking of ideologues of Weimar's "conservative revolution" and of currents in the Nazi regime. His subsequent books examine the political culture of West Germany before and during the battle over Euromissiles in the 1980s; memory and politics regarding the Holocaust in East and West Germany; Nazi Germany's antisemitic propaganda; and Nazi propaganda aimed at North Africa and the Middle East.

New York, N.Y. Fusion Energy Foundation, 1983. Preprint Presumed first edition, first printing thus. Wraps. [2], 13, [1] pages. Oversized item, measuring 10-1/2 inches by 8-1/4 inches. Some discoloration to front cover. Erasure residue on front cover. Most pages printed in a two column format. This essay is devoted to the subject of the context for defining requirements for medical and related civil defense under both probable conditions of risk of nuclear and other warfare during an interval of perhaps five to seven years ahead, and also a capacity for dealing with catastrophes of other forms for which a similar kind of emergency capability is required. Fusion Energy Foundation (FEF) was an American non-profit think tank co-founded by Lyndon LaRouche in 1974 in New York. It promoted the construction of nuclear power plants, research into fusion power and beam weapons and other causes. The FEF was called fusion's greatest private supporter. It was praised by scientists like John Clarke, who said that the fusion community owed it a "debt of gratitude". By 1980, its main publication, Fusion, claimed 80,000 subscribers. The FEF included notable scientists and others on its boards, along with LaRouche movement insiders in management positions. It published a popular magazine, Fusion, and a more technical journal as well as books and pamphlets. It conducted seminars and its members testified at legislative hearings. It was known for soliciting subscriptions to their magazines in U.S. airports, where its confrontational methods resulted in conflicts with celebrities and the general public. The FEF has been described by many writers[who?] as a "front" for the U.S. Labor Party and the LaRouche movement. By the mid-1980s, the FEF was being accused of fraudulent fundraising on behalf of other LaRouche entities. Federal prosecutors forced it into bankruptcy in 1986 to collect contempt of court fines, a decision that was later overturned when a federal bankruptcy court found that the government had acted "in bad faith".[1] Key personnel were convicted in 1988.
