Hardcover. Condition: Fair. Third Printing. [A fresh and lucid view of economic society and the quality of modern life] From the library of noted scholar William E. Connolly. Earlier printing. Hardcover and dust jacket. Tears to jacket. Dust jacket in protective mylar cover. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Scattered underlining and markings by Connolly through out. "William E. Connolly is Krieger-Eisenhower Professor in the political science department at Hopkins where he teaches political theory. His early book, The Terms of Political Discourse, was awarded the Benjamin Lippincott Award in 1999 as 'a work of exceptional quality that is still considered significant at least 15 years after publication.' In a poll of American political theorists published in PS in 2010, he was ranked the fourth most influential political theorist in America over the last twenty years, after Rawls, Habermas, and Foucault. His work focuses on the issues of democratic pluralism, capitalism, inequality, fascism, and bumpy intersections between capitalism and planetary amplifiers in climate change." - Johns Hopkins University.
