Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Printed in Great Britain by the Riverside Press. First American Edition. Date on the title page. Author's First Book. Dedicatory Preface, Synopsis, Introductory, Conclusion, Appendices (French Ergonic Chart; Glossary; List of Phonetic Symbols), Index; 328 pages. The original pale-brown cloth is very good, with darker-brown lettering clear on the spine and upper board. The interior leaves are bright and completely free of markings; however, a number of pages were opened a little roughly and have minor tears at the edges---none comes close to any of the text. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] There is a small chip from the bottom of the half-title page. The folding diagram on page 74 and the folding chart on page 282 are in fine shape. In the Dedicatory Preface to Monsieur Edouard Mathieu, the author reminisces about how they used to pass their leisure in examining aspects of what they came to call 'the Linguistic Problem': "In a recent letter you ask whether I have succeeded in correlating the various aspects of the problem in one homogenous system of linguistic pedagogy. My answer takes the form of the present book. . . ." 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.…

Shopbeschreibung

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.…
