Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey: Prentice-Hall Inc., 1963.  First Edition.

Warmly inscribed by Fuller to E. J. "Sonny" Applewhite and his wife June, signed and dated in the year of publication.

Applewhite was Fuller's collaborator on Synergetics and Synergetics 2.  He joined Buckminster Fuller in his mass-production housing project with the Beech Aircraft Company in Wichita, Kansas from 1945-1946, in personnel and public relations. In 1947, Applewhite joined the Central Intelligence Agency, serving in Bonn and Beirut with the U.S. Foreign Service during the Marshall Plan era. Prior to retiring from his government career at the age of 50, he was Deputy Inspector General of CIA and authored reports for the Agency's Director, Robert S. McNamara.

During the late 1960s, Applewhite reunited with Buckminster Fuller and fulfilled administrative and public affairs roles, writing transcripts of speeches and interviews, making travel arrangements, and maintaining correspondence with various associates of Fuller's. Applewhite also assisted in matters concerning the foreign publishing and reprint rights of Fuller's works, and in the administration and planning for the care and custody of the Fuller archives and chronofile. The most notable outcome of Applewhite and Fuller's partnership is the publication of Fuller's major work on Geometry and Metaphysics: Synergetics (1975) and Synergetics 2 (1979). Over a period of 10 years, Applewhite was an editorial assistant to Fuller and collaborated with him in helping to organize and edit these works, and he wrote about the experience in his book, Cosmic Fishing: An Account of Writing Synergetics with Buckminster Fuller(1977).

Applewhite's name stamp below the inscription.  A very good copy, corners and spine tips a little bumped, a few pages with pencil underlining and marginalia.  Dust wrapper is fair but complete.

Stopped working after 3 months
It stopped working after 3 months. The motor still runs the gear still turns. But it does not engage the can to cut. I bought it for a post operative situation and I am glad that it worked when for the length of time it did but it's disappointing that I now have to throw this item away.

Meh.
Worked great the first couple of times it was used. But then it stopped cutting into the cans and does not open them. It causes the metal to fray off in small pieces which resulted in getting a piece of metal stuck in my finger for weeks so I don't recommend. It's also very loud.

Great opener
Color: Blue
Had a battery operated can opener before and was always changing the batteries. Love the safety cut and this works great now that I can just charge it with my phone charger. Fits in my drawer so no counter space used

Leaves an EXTREMELY SHARP edge - cuts off entire lid from sides of can!
Color: Blue, Color: Blue
This can opener cut off the whole top of the tuna cans and left an insanely sharp, wobbly, very thin edge of the top of the can that nearly cut me because there was no heavy metal lip left behind to hold the structure of the top of the can! This is a very bad feature that is going to really hurt someone! I do NOT recommend this for anyone! Needs a product recall!
