Bottom spine cap gently folded under. Occasional faint indentations, from what looks to be a small paperclip, to upper pages. Dustjacket very good. Sunning to jacket spine. A .75 x .5" sticker ghost to upper rear jacket panel. A .25" closed tear to front upper panel edge. Gilt lettering crisply debossed to spine. Black buckram covered boards. Very clean, tight, bright. Mylar protective cover to jacket. 318 pp. with bibliography, index of names, and index of subjects. A new volume in the International Library of the Psychology, Philosophy, and Scientific Method. General editor, C. K. Ogden. Preface by Louis Wirth. Translated from the German by Louis Wirth and Edward Shils. "In sharp contrast with contemporary literature which has talked about the "decline," "the crisis," and "the death," of western civilization, [this] works stands out as a silver, critical, and scholarly analysis of the social currents and situation of our time. Professor Mannheim analyzes Ideologies and Utopias as the main mental pattern underlying social action. Ideologies are mental fictions...Utopias are wish-dreams," (front flap).
