Sobre este artículo
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania: University of Pennsylvania Press, 1959. First Edition First Printing . Hardcover. Near Fine/Good. Intriguing investigation of a "pernicious biological cult" that originated in the 1860s, when Karl Marx & Friedrich Engels first read Charles Darwin's "On the Origin of Species" & tried to make his ideas of genetics & natural selection jive with their goals for a socialistic society in the USSR. The adoption of this "Marxian biology" paved the way for the Soviet Union to "annihilate all traces of the science of genetics from the Communist world." Repercussions for American culture, literature, sociology, & politics are considered. In 557 pp with Bibliography, Index, Preface. A FIRST EDITION, first printing, from 1959, this hardcover 8vo has textured blue cloth over boards, lettered in bright gilt to spine. Condition is Near Fine: completely clean, binding strong & straight, both hinges intact, pages off-white with light tanning to edges, heavier to endpapers. A hint of rubbing to extremities & very slight bumping to spine tips & corners. The unclipped DJ is only Good, with spine fading, light soil, & heavy chipping/small holes to extremities; nicely protected against further damage in new clear mylar cover free!
