Paperback. Condition: Good. 1. Ezelsoortjes Dutch Gordon Rattray Taylor onderzoekt de problemen van een wereld die onder druk staat door maatschappelijke, technologische en ecologische ontwikkelingen. Hij betoogt dat materiële vooruitgang op zichzelf niet volstaat wanneer de samenleving er niet in slaagt het persoonlijke welzijn en geluk van mensen te vergroten. Tegenover bestaande maatschappelijke structuren en groeiende psychische spanningen plaatst hij alternatieven voor een leefbaardere toekomst en een andere inrichting van de samenleving.…

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Former academic library book; ink stamps to endpapers ; spine label and shelf number to spine. Pages are unmarked and uncreased. A presentable used copy with no major defects. Publisher's note: The quest for a suitable theoretical mould within which to explore the possible constitutional consequences of adult gender-specific sexually explicit material (often referred to as "obscene" or even "pornographic" material) is, by its very nature, premised on a particular conception (or definition) of such material. Although various attempts to produce a legal definition of sexually explicit material have been criticised as either too vague or too broad (or even "under broad"), some attempt at a definition remains an essential preliminary to any meaningful discussion thereof. The theoretical mould(s) within which a definition is (are) cast will largely determine the extent of an effective constitutional challenge to material deemed sexually explicit and, in turn, set guidelines for its possible regulation or prohibition. xxxi, 339 pp. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo.

Front board detached along joint but still firmly anchored by both binding cords; rear board detached and anchored only by one binding cord. Former owner book plate of Henry D. Gilpin (1801-1860, Quaker lawyer and statesman, U.S. Attorney General 1840-41 under President Martin Van Buren) on front pastedown. Text block is fully intact. xliv, 371 pp., w/ two hand-colored plates, the first the frontis. of English Chromatic Scale (Moses Harris's colour-wheel), the second after p. 244 of the French Chromatic Scale (Merimee's), both with intact tissue guards. This translation of Merimee's famous French treatise was made at the suggestion of Mulready, Etty and Wilkie. This volume contains substantial extracts from the original manuscript of Harris's "Natural History of Colours," which the author describes as a "work . . . so very scarce, that I have never seen a copy of it" (p.350). Recommended leather restoration would significantly enhance appearance, but this copy is still quite presentable "as is" and could be recased to provide a complement to its near-immaculate interior. Noted condition as Good-VG weighs semi-detached boards and chipped leather against the quite tidy state of the text block itself, which is solid Near Fine, and its former ownership. Published by Whittaker & Co., Ave Maria Lane, printed by Gilbert & Rivington in St. John's Square. Exceedingly scarce. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Book. …
