Store Description

I specialize in rare or scarce books in philosophy, broadly construed. Early editions of Plato and Aristotle, first English editions of Plato and Aristotle first and early editions of 17-19th century philosophers and logicians, as well as important 20th- century philosophers. I have a few interesting non-philosophy items.
