Beschreibung

Today Herbert Spencer (1820-1903) would be termed a "public intellectual." His enthusiasms included anthropology, philosophy, biology, and political theory; he is sometimes termed the "father of sociology." He was a strong supporter of evolution, but had his own rather quirky interpretation. This is a very Good (Plus) three-volume set of his works. Volumes One and Two are from the 1883 edition, while Volume Three dates from 1888. Purple pebbled cloth bindings with decorative ruling on the covers. Gilt lettering on the spine. Clean texts: 450 pages; 418 pages with Index; and ix, 443 pages. Volume Three is designated the "Fourth Edition," with the addition of two more essays. Very bright texts, with some rather minimal scattered spots, mainly near the endpapers. The corners are very lightly bumped and the cloth has faded to tan around the margins. The publishers adverts in Volume Three have been mis-done: 14 pages of "Mr. Herbert Spencer's Works" are in the rear, but pages 15 and 16 are bound into the front. Rather a minor mis-step, but worth noting. Size: 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Bestandsnummer des Verk�ufers 004056
