About This Item
New York: Philosophical Library, 1968. Hardcover. Unpaginated preliminaries, 119p., first American publication and perhaps the first edition in book form; the essays here were composed during the second world war, issued in pamphlet format, and are generically "philosophy". Hardbound in black cloth boards gilt and enclosed in the dust jacket. Top edge of textblock is tinted green, a nice touch. Aside from light handling wear, quite a good copy: sound, clean and unmarked.
