Whether you want entertainment or sharp social satire, don't miss this! ALSO KNOWN AS: A condensed version of this novel appeared in Galaxy magazine under the title Gravy Planet. REVIEWS: ".a book so rewarding that it should henceforth show up on all lists of science fiction 'classics.' As H. L. Gold wrote, it represents the type of future fiction which takes one given contemporary situation and carries it to the utmost extremes we are capable of imagining.and the result, oddly, is not so much satire as a horrifyingly convincing reality."--H. H. Holmes in the N.Y. Herald Tribune. "Within a beautifully detailed framework of bitter satire is told a raging melodrama of power-conflict."--J. Francis McComas, The New York Sunday Times. "A novel of the future that the present must inevitably rank as classic."--The New York Times. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.

Near Fine with former owner's bookplate on paste down, typical age-toning to pages, in a Near Fine dust jacket with light edge wear, old bookstore sticker on rear flap, unclipped ($1.50) with barely any of the usual sunning to the spine panel. An attractive copy. Bills itself as "a novel of the future when advertising agencies take over," which sounds more plausible than most sci-fi scenarios to this cataloguer.
