Beschreibung
First edition. Signed by Herman Kahn on front free endpaper. xx, 651 pp. Bound in publisher's maroon cloth lettered in gilt, ruled in black. Near Fine with light wear, bookplate remnants on front paste down, in a Near Fine unclipped dust jacket. An attractive signed copy of an elegantly-designed book. One of the most influential academic works of the cold war, which made its author an instant celebrity. Kahn's recent biographer Sharon Ghamari-Tabrizi said the book "hums with motifs of world cataclysm, resurrection, and miracle," likening its frank, varied, jocular expository style to that of an epic poem. It would be parodied in the classic Stanley Kubrick film Dr. Strangelove. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 140944752
