A fine copy of this 1989 second U.S. edition in a Very Good plus dust jacket, unclipped and priced at $16.95. The first edition was published by Monthly Review Press in 1962. Appears unread, no writing or marks. The dust jacket has a vertical rub (see photos) and there is a small white mark on the front panel. A little obscure and quite scarce (Via Libri lists four copies). The book, which has an introduction by Bertrand Russell, contains a correspondence between the German philosopher, Gunther Anders, and the lead pilot who gave the signal to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and suffered severe self-recrimination for his involvement, a response unacceptable to his superiors and the U.S. government.

Store description
I am a book lover and collector with a literary education (which means I have not read Ulysses, but I have taken classes on it). I am a packrat and aficionado of fine and serviceable used items in the belief that it is time to slow down production and slow down our lives in order to appreciate and share that which already exists.

Terms of sale
I will search out used books which have value, be it intrinsic, symbolic,
aesthetic or amusement, describe them and their condition to the best of my
ability, price them fairly and ship them promptly, carefully packaged, as a rule
by Canada Post. I will accept returns in accordance with the policies of ABE
Books.
This is a hobby business that is cheaper than skiing, and I will run it 'until
all the money is gone' as the farmers say. After that, I will have to switch to
collecting match book covers (no offence to those who do). Penny Clipperton,
