Sobre este artículo
NY: Simon and Schuster, 1973. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. Uncommon later edition of this noteworthy collection of essays by the British philosopher, originally published in England and America in 1935. First edition thus. Octavo. 8.25 x 5.75 in. 231pp. Blue cloth boards, silver spine titles; in dust jacket. Small black remainder slash on bottom of textblock, negligible shelfwear. Else fine in a near fine, unclipped ("$7.95") jacket with a couple of short closed tears (and related creases). Attractive copy. N.B. Though the front jacket flap bizarrely credits this as the "first American publication," there was in fact a 1935 edition published in New York by W. W. Norton.
