Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. 1st Edition. First Edition (Number Line to 1). Studies of the Russian Institute Columbia University. Signed and inscribed by the co-editor (with either Rudi or perhaps a Hungarian nickname 'Ruoli') on the half title page. This will be the only signed copy of this book for sale anywhere on the Internet. In fact a search of all of his books produced not even one other signed book. (Note that I just before this listed another title by the author which was also signed, and also inscribed to his friend and likely colleague at Wesleyan University 'Phil'. The book for sale here is in excellent condition. Take a look at the photographs. The red covers are spotless. The black lettering on the spine is unworn. There really isn't any wear to speak of, just a little bit of wrinkling at the spine ends. The book is very solidly bound. The editor's signed inscription is on the front free end paper. It is dated July 1974. Other than that, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The pages in the book are exceptionally clean. I'm leafing through them now and haven't found even a spot of soiling. They are also quite bright. I don't see any creases or dogeared corners. There aren't any markings or attachments. Kudos to Phil. On the other hand, Phil has let us down as regards the dust jacket. I've rated it only Fair. It is Not clipped. But there are several chips, including a small one off the front top edge, edging onto the spine and off the top rear edge, edging onto the other side of the spine. And there is a large chip off the top edge of the rear cover. There's also a tear off the front bottom edge, a crease over some of the lettering on the front, and a few other nicks and such. Positively, it is not at all a fragile jacket. It just seems to have suffered some careless handling. It's also rather clean. It will be fitted with a protective cover. Rudolph L. Tokes was a senior research fellow of the Russian Institute of Columbia University. He was a professor at the University of Connecticut and later at Wesleyan University close to where I purchased this book. Inscribed by Author(s).

The inscription reads: 'For __________ , meeting and greeting initiates the fundamental basis for sharing. In recognition of a shared encounter, David Weiss, Miami Beach, January 13/85.' The book is in very nice condition. You can see the covers in the photos. They are very clean. The cover edges and corners are in excellent shape. The page edges look very good, with just one small tanned spot on the middle page edge. The book is square and the spine is straight. The book is solidly bound. There are no cracks or spaces between any of the facing pages. The covers are nicely tight. The pages are also exceptionally clean. Scrolling through, I'm not finding any soiling. There is a light 1/2 inch colorless impression just off the bottom edge of the pages, something would have pressed down there, creating this little crinkle, not much of anything, far from the print. There are no markings in the book. No attachments. And the author's signed inscription is the only writing to be found anywhere. The dust jacket is also in very good condition. I've always had it in a fitted protective cover. I don't see any losses, any tears. The jacket is clean. The flaps are very clean, no soiling. I don't see any conspicuous creasing. There are no tears. There is a lightly penciled word off the top edge of the front flap. The jacket is not priced or clipped. From the dust jacket: 'In these days of attacks on social work, human relations workers and people in need of human services, this book is a heartening affirmation of our values and our humanism. Out of his rich experience and his creative insight, David Weiss has distilled an exciting refutation to the attackers and to the mechanization of our times. His expression of concern for serving people is a clarion cry against dehumanization. He recognizes how complex yet how inescapable is our task to discern and enhance the worth of the individual. He conveys with sensitivity and compassion the message that each human being is ultimately a microcosm of the mystery which confronts us as we ponder the meaning of being alive. What Weiss is saying is that we cannot afford to flag in our commitment to social justice and in our responsiveness to human need and that priority on human values must once again take its proper place on top of the agenda.'.
