About This Item
London: Oxford University Press / Humphrey Milford, 1929. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Near Fine/Very Good. Xviii, 416 Pp. Blue Cloth, Gilt. First Printing. Near Fine, Gilt Brilliant, No Marks, Pages Unopened (Still Attached Along For Edges). Near Fine. Dust Jacket Price Clipped, Light Wear And Soiling, Small Losses At Edges. One Has To Read The Wikipedia Entry For This Perhaps Charmingly Insufferable Philosopher To Understand How Such An Unforgivably Abominable Personality Could Have Been As Popular As George Bernard Shaw And Bertrand Russell, And For Similar Reasons, In Their Day. How He Has Not Yet Been The Subject Of A First Class Biography Or Movie Is Difficult To Explain, Except That True Socialists Are Not Yet Thought Amusing, And They Are Definitely Still Blindly Hated By The Corporate Class.
