About This Item
New York, NY: John Day, 1950. Book. Very Good. Cloth. First Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. New York, NY, John Day, 1950. First edition. 8vo. Bright red cloth with gilt lettering embossed on spine, 270 pp. To warn of today's threat of terror, Robert Payne exposes the "zero philosophies" of our own time. He draws heavily on the Nuremburg trials, which all too few Americans have read. Then he turns to a hopeful alternative- the cultivation of the sanctity of human life. He presents a positive program which if carried out might possibly be the next step in human evolution, putting an end to squalor, poverty and misery. Rare! Very good in a very good dust jacket, protected by a mylar cover..
