The Future of Time: Man's Temporal Environment

Good. Trade paperback in original pictorial wraps with bold George Giusti cover design. Cover shows moderate toning and soiling overall, with surface scuffing and creasing, particularly at upper corners and spine head. Spine intact and legible; some vertical stress creasing along spine. Pages tanned throughout as expected for paper stock of this era, with mild waviness at page edges visible in spine view. Interior clean and unmarked by previous reader. Half-title page bears rubber ownership stamp of Dr. Charles Graham, Institute of the Pennsylvania Hospital, with a red penciled shelf notation "1ºB" in upper right corner — a provenance stamp of genuine institutional and historical interest. Binding firm; text block tight. The Future of Time assembles contributions from psychiatrists, psychologists, anthropologists, and philosophers to examine the human experience of time from multiple disciplinary angles — including how drugs, mental illness, culture, and altered states affect temporal perception. Edited by Henri Yaker, Humphry Osmond (who famously coined the term psychedelic and collaborated with Aldous Huxley), and Frances Cheek, the volume sits at the intersection of mid-century psychiatry, consciousness studies, and social psychology. This copy's provenance stamp — Dr. Charles Graham of the Institute of the Pennsylvania Hospital, one of America's oldest and most historically significant psychiatric institutions (est. 1841) — adds a meaningful layer of collecting interest: a working psychiatrist at a historic Penn institution reading Osmond's work on time, madness, and altered perception. A coherent and evocative association copy. Carefully packed and shipped in a box. Shipped via USPS with tracking provided. International shipping available. Additional photographs available upon request. SCI 1a.…
