THE LAW OF THE JUNGLE.

NY:  Greenburg, Publisher, 1926, 1st. edition, xxiii, 262 pp. ***

SIGNED with a short note on front end paper.  A few quotes from the Preface explain what this book is about.  "It is an attack upon private property, that is to say, upon competitive industry as opposed to cooperative."  The author, a businessman himself, fears that a new paradigm of cooperation "would contribute enormously to the liberation of mankind."  The alternative, in his view,  is the imminent collapse of our industrial civilization.  Written in the aftermath of WW I, this work reflects many of the prevailing theories among various intellectual of the time.  Signed 1st. editions of this book are rare. ***  This book comes with a clear mylar protective cover. ***  Bound in black cloth boards and spine with gilt lettering on front cover.  The covers have light wear and soil.  Gilt of lettering on spine has faded away.  The contents are clean and complete in a good binding. ***  8.25 " tall by 5.5 "
