Internally excellent, inscr.fr.pastedown: 'Nellie Marsh, Zion Sunday School, Folkestone, January 1902', otherwise clean, tight & unmarked bar some browning to endpapers facing pastedowns the effect of which is reduced as the floral design is also brown; covers must be considered excellent being bright & unworn with no damage to the oval silver-printed photo of Pandita Ramabai centre fr. Undated but from the inscrip.date it is certainly the 1900 1st edition, subsequent editions were dated and, it seems, mostly in blue cloth.

Budapest. Spiral bound card. VG+. 15.5 Cms x 21 Cms. 12 papers in English reprinted from various sources, all but 2 authored by Csaba Pleh (co-authored in one case). These cover a variety of topics from Hungarian Psychology, psychophysics and Ernst Mach to Halbwachs, Valeria Diences and cognitive psychology. Mostly from mid-1990s, occasionally earlier. The only flaw is that green name stamp of Roger Smith to verso front cover has slightly leaked through to recto. I think this was probably produced on the occasion of a Cheiron Europe conference in Budapest.

University of London bindings were of generally high quality, and markings here are not too intrusive. This work appears to be quite scarce and is an interesting historical document with papers in French and German as well as English. One also wonders whatever became ot the Moral Instruction League.
