Cloth. Etat : Very Good. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition VERY RARE. Light shelf wear to D/J. edges. The means to this dismantling of the suicide pact in which this age seems trapped can be found in these pages. Here is a method the application of which brings liberation - not, as is clear from the book's central theme, an a-political freedom, but a total transformative restoration of man as a human animal who is benign to his own inwardness and to the outwardness of his brothers. He is no danger to society and society can not endanger him. It is significant that despite the persecuiont of the men of knowledge have been submitted to, the teaching survives, and the teachers survive - they fight, they take to the mountains, they hide in the cities. This is not a poetic statement, it is a historical one. (Excerpt from the introduction by Abd al-Qair as-Sufi). This is the most important book written by man. Until this edition only one copy of the book was in existence. For two hundred years the author's copy was kept at the place where he taught and during that time, regularly, every Thursday night, a small group of the intellectual elite of the city of Fez in Morocco would make their way down to the dyer's quarter to the small zawiyya (lit. corner) of the great teacher, gather in a circle and read, examine and apply the method delineated in the hand-written manuscript before them. As of today, that circle still gathers. it is hope that by publication of this extraordinary work, incomparable in its profoundity and clarity, the circle of Fez scholars will be extended and that knowledge may be disseminated through it in this age of intellectual bankruptcy. Illustrated. 456 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
