1937True first edition copy. The first American edition, published by Harper & Brothers, issued in 1938. - Baumgarten p.94. The only children's book written by Haldane, a prominent geneticist credited with coining the term clone. Enigmatic online videographer and purported AI expert Quinn Michaels posits that this book contains vital hidden information conveyed in "spy language", most notably a transistor diagram incorporated into the illustration on page 123, despite the fact that it is commonly held that the transistor was not invented by a Bell Labs team until a decade later. For additional information on Michaels' intriguing analysis enter the title of this book plus the word 'analysis', into the most popular video website. 179 pages. Dust jacket not included.

194839 pages. Dedicated to man's age-old effort to create a government strong enough to protect him without creating a force strong enough to enslave him. "Most of the mystery surrounding what we call money results from the illusion that money, in itself, is something: in reality money, in itself, is nothing. If the reader of this book will open his/her mind to this apparently paradoxical truth, he will more easily understand the true nature and function of money. Written for the millions of citizens whose lives are directly and seriously affected by money, but who have never had access to a simple analysis from which they could gain a working knowledge of the subject. We wish to point out, however, that this book merely dissects and examines: it expresses no opinions. Any quarrel with this book is not a quarrel with the authors: it is a quarrel with the facts of our economic life." - from Preface. Average wear. Contents unmarked. Beige covers soiled with unsightly stain at top of front board. Binding intact. Good working copy. Book

1962192 pages. Index. "A fascinating and comprehensive portrait of America's Far Right - of its leaders, its backers, of its methods and motives, of its present organization.

2002517 pages. Index. Many consider David Rockefeller to have been the world's most powerful man. "It's almost inconceivable that one man's life could encompass so many things. But (his) life has, and he tells the world all about it in this candid and highly informative book. This is the first time a Rockefeller has ever told his own story." - from dust jacket. Personalized bookplate, ostensibly for a fellow member of the Council on Foreign Relations has been signed by author and mounted upon front free endpaper. Dust jacket preserved in archival-grade Brodart. Clean and unmarked with very light wear. A handsome copy. Book
1903A very rare copy of this, the first appearance of chapter seven, The Crisis of 1878, of Ida Tarbell's ground-breaking History of the Standard Oil Company. This feature of 16 pages includes photos of: the company's tank farm at Olean, NY; John L. McKinney; Torpedoed oil wells with side-flow and upright flow; A.J. Cassatt; M.N. Allen; a 25,000 oil tank on fire; and a one-page illustration of the hanging in effigy of "Buck" McCandless. With this work, Tarbell invented what we know today as investigative journalism. She was motivated to expose the methods of J.D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil as she felt he had unfairly damaged her father's oil business. The New York University Department of Journalism ranked this study as the fifth best work of 20th-century American journalism. Also contained in this issue is a most scathing 15-page photo-illustrated article on the corruption pervasive in Pittsburgh, PA. Also included is a 9-page article entitled Waifs of the (New York) Street which describes, with illustrations, the heart-breaking life of children forced to work as 'newsboys, peddlers, messengers, and bootblacks that swarm by day and night through every crowded street of busy New York.' Binding intact. Unmarked. Above-average wear. This copy lacks: covers; backstrip; pages 1-2 (title page and first half of table of contents); Advertising pages 133-136. Book
1904A very rare copy of this, the first appearance of A Modern War For Independence, Chapter 6 of Part 2 of Ida Tarbell's ground-breaking History of the Standard Oil Company. This 18-page chapter deals with the united opposition of producers which developed against J.D. Rockefeller's heavy-handed dominance of their industry. Illustrated with photos of A.D. Wood, Lewis Emery Jr., Thomas W. Phillips, Peter Theobald, E.H. Jennings, David Kirk, Michael Murphy, James W. Lee, Hugh King, and Clarence Walker. With this work, Tarbell invented what is known today as investigative journalism. She was motivated to expose the methods of J.D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil as she felt he had unfairly damaged her father's oil business. The New York University Department of Journalism ranked this study as the fifth best work of 20th-century American journalism. Also included is a fascinating illustrated article by P.T. McGrath entitled The Peril of the Icebergs which discusses the horrors of ships colliding with icebergs, strongly foreshadowing the Titanic disaster eight years later. Dozens of glorious illustrated ads. Binding intact. Unmarked. Average wear. Lacking covers, backstrip, and half of page 85 which contained ads. A worthy vintage copy. Book
