Store Description

Member, I.O.B.A. (the Independent On-line Booksellers Association) "Structure" versus "Agency." A phrase that has characterized much social-scientific debate. Does ?structure? (the routinized regulations of kinship and marriage, work and reproduction, of race, class and gender) determine history, or is it the ?agency? of fully conscious, independently acting, individuals? Structure, Verses, Agency Books isn?t going to solve the debate, but we?ll offer you lots of all three. Versus to verses?we specialize in fine, rare and collectible books, from the fine arts to the social sciences, from poetry to photography, from literature and ethnography to fine bindings and Americana.
