Alpher, Ralph. "Theory of the Origin and Relative Abundance Distribution of the Elements." Review of Modern Physics, 1950. Volume 22, Number 2, April 1950. Pp 153-212 Original printed wrappers. Fine copy. A lovely, fresh, bright copy. Written with Robert Herman, this is a deep and historically penetrating review of the "distribution of the elements" issue. Its 180-item bibliography is particularly useful. Also included in this same issue is D. Ter Haar's "Cosmogonical Problems and Stellar Energy", an excellent review covering the first section of the issue (pp 119-152), and also including another very useful *chronological bibliography*. Wonderful paper. $250
