First Edition (NAP). Once listed, this will be the Only copy of this book for sale anywhere on the Internet. It is signed and inscribed as follows: 'To Walter Blum, Long time friend and mentor. With best wishes, Rick Tessler.' As you can see from the photos, the covers are in excellent condition. I think they are a faux leather. They are in nearly perfect condition, there is a slight bit of rubbing below the bottom edge of the spine, only visible from below. Otherwise the edges look perfect. Same with the corners. Same with the spine ends. The gilt lettering on the spine is quite bright. There is a little bit of dust staining on the middle page edge, but it doesn't carry over to the actual pages. These pages appear to be exceptionally clean. I'm scrolling through without seeing any soiling. They also appear to be in excellent condition. I'm not seeing any creasing. There are no markings No attachments of any kind (NOT ex-library). And with the exception of the co-author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The dust jacket is in very solid condition. It's quite clean. The spine is faded from red to pink. There is a little bit of rubbing at the spine ends and at a couple of the corners. The flaps are in excellent condition, no soiling, no wear. The jacket is not priced or clipped. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned. 'The Community Support Program (CSP), sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health, evolved as a federal response to the challenges posed by the deinstitutionalization of the chronically mentally ill. This book offers the first assessment of the program's early successes, its shortcomings, and its prospects for the future.'.…

Store description
Many of the books I will be selling can accurately be described as ranging from somewhat rare to very rare. In some cases there won't be another copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. There doesn't seem much point, for you or me, in offering something that so many others are already offering. Subject matter will range very widely, creating the possibility for people with very different interests to find something that excites them. As regards pricing, my primary goal is to sell the book. Most often I would expect my book to be the least expensive option on the Internet taking into account an appropriate comparison(what is the condition, is the dust jacket present, is the book signed, is it a first printing, etc.). More important than selling the book I want to make sure that you know, as much as is possible, exactly what you are getting. To that end, you'll notice that my descriptions of condition tend to be lengthy, and that there will always be photographs to help you draw your own conclusions. Please feel free to contact me with any questions about a given book. As regards international shipping, the first class or standard rates I charge are based on a package weight between 2 and 3 pounds. If the book is on the thin side there is a possibility that I can securely pack it up under 2 pounds in weight. If so, the shipping price will drop by around $11.00 or $12.00 to $26.00-27.00. Canada, which is less expensive drops to $18.00. You can contact me before purchasing a book for an estimate on the shipping cost. If you buy the book and it weighs in below 2 pounds you'll get a Reduced Shipping message and amount with the invoice and you'll see the lowered final cost before you make your payment.…
