Sobre este artículo
New York: Literary Guild, 1934. Vintage Copy. Hardcover. Richard Feynman's personally owned volume, annotated in his hand on two pages of the text on the theme of Christianity and science. Annotated by Feynman: "Christianity has always been a detriment to civilization and especially to scientific knowledge . This has spread in spite of Christianity" ; second annotation reads "Too bad U.S. has to be famous for bigotry." Blunt insights from a man who seldom strayed into direct commentary on religious subjects. The Feynman's bookplate is also inside the front cover, with the Confucian quote "Learning without thought is labour lost; thoughts without learning is perilous." Volume has been well-used, presumably by Feynman while a graduate student. Condition is Fair, bound in full blue cloth. Tearing to cloth exterior, scuffing to cloth, hinge has started. 8vo, 8 1/2"h x 5 1/2"w. Volume is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
