Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Second Edition, Revised and Amplified. Detailed Table of Contents, List of Illustrations (29 Figures), Glossary, Table of Accepted Physical Constants, Table of Estimated Identic Constants, xvi, 243 pages; plus Appendices of 24 pages, dated after the book's publication. The red cloth shows a bit of rubbing at extremities, with two corners bumped; spine is slightly faded, with gilt lettering still legible. [Please see my 8 images of the actual book.] There is slight toning overall and a neat cut-out to the front free endpaper corner, probably from the excising of a signature. Two appendices (8 and 16 pages) have been set in at the back endpapers, leaving small marks from the staples; their last page is age-toned. Binding remains tight; pages crisp and clean. [Again, see images.] "The first sixteen chapters seem to the writer to constitute a thorough proof of the theory using a homely simile, the remaining chapters might be considered to be an attempt to solve the jig-saw puzzle of the physical universe. . . ." As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking.

Shop-Beschreibung

The books listed here are, indeed, from my father's library, representing the depth and varied interests of a modern scholar's mind. Dr. Henry LeRoy Finch, professor emeritus of philosophy and a published author, trained in the classics (graduating top in his class at Yale), and went on to develop an appreciation for modern thinkers. It took over half-a-century to amass this collection of primarily-scholarly books with a broad range of subjects from Philosophy and Religion (with an emphasis on the interrelationships and intricacies of Eastern and Western Thinking) to scientific influences played out over the entire history of humankind, touching necessarily on Art, Anthropology, Archaeology, Literature, History of various Cultures, Psychology, Physics, and Spiritual Thought, including Theosophy and Mysticism. Many are esoteric philosophical works, out-of-print and unavailable elsewhere. A great number cover the interconnections of so many subjects as to defy classification. His was a working library: each volume was read and familiar, its whereabouts on a shelf always known, even when "double-parked." Though many of the books are esoteric, others will appeal to the general reader, often making an abstruse subject more approachable. (There are a hundred books on Einstein alone!) In addition, there are numerous paperbacks--classics, scholarly, first-published editions, several versions of the same book (in different translations), handy for packing along in a back pocket. Each of the volumes from the collection has a bookplate tipped in at the front and may have pencil marginalia--sparse or profuse. I have tried to reflect this in all the listings, but feel free to call and discuss further details of a book's condition. As it will take a long time to write up all the descriptions, some of you may wish to call and ask about a particular book you have been seeking. Meanwhile, I'll try to keep an eye on the "Wants" list. Thank you for visiting this page. I hope my father's books will eventually find happy homes; it was one of his last wishes.
