A propos de cet article

Printed in Great Britain. [Date from the copyright page.] Stated First American Edition; First Printing. Preface, Translator's Note, Introduction, Footnotes, Additional Notes, Bibliography, Indexes of Names & Subjects; xv, 412 pages. The original charcoal-gray boards are in excellent condition, with corners sharp and gilt lettering bright on gently-bumped spine. Binding is strong. However, the crisp, bright interior has pencil underlining on a few dozen pages, by my late philosopher-father, a Wittgenstein scholar. [The quality of the paper would stand up well to erasing of the pencil, but there is quite a bit.] Top edge is deep red. The unclipped dust jacket has some rubbing, a few small chips at the edges, and a large 'bite' at the rear---only the publisher's name affected. [Please see my five images of the actual book.] "What is the meaning of 'meaning'? What are we to do when one person declares meaningless what another finds supremely meaningful? Is there any way of knowing which is right? Can we arrive at a common understanding of what is meaningful? The author contends that contemporary philosophy does point to such a common understanding. § This book also makes a major contribution to today's questions in both philosophy and theology."---from the flap. As with every book from my father's collection, tipped-in at the front is the small, attractive, acid-free bookplate pictured on my homepage. All books are wrapped with special care and are shipped promptly with tracking; international sales sent via global priority, also with tracking.…

Description de la boutique

The books listed here are, indeed, from my father's library, representing the depth and varied interests of a modern scholar's mind. Dr. Henry LeRoy Finch, professor emeritus of philosophy and a published author, trained in the classics (graduating top in his class at Yale), and went on to develop an appreciation for modern thinkers. It took over half-a-century to amass this collection of primarily-scholarly books with a broad range of subjects from Philosophy and Religion (with an emphasis on the interrelationships and intricacies of Eastern and Western Thinking) to scientific influences played out over the entire history of humankind, touching necessarily on Art, Anthropology, Archaeology, Literature, History of various Cultures, Psychology, Physics, and Spiritual Thought, including Theosophy and Mysticism. Many are esoteric philosophical works, out-of-print and unavailable elsewhere. A great number cover the interconnections of so many subjects as to defy classification. His was a working library: each volume was read and familiar, its whereabouts on a shelf always known, even when "double-parked." Though many of the books are esoteric, others will appeal to the general reader, often making an abstruse subject more approachable. (There are a hundred books on Einstein alone!) In addition, there are numerous paperbacks--classics, scholarly, first-published editions, several versions of the same book (in different translations), handy for packing along in a back pocket. Each of the volumes from the collection has a bookplate tipped in at the front and may have pencil marginalia--sparse or profuse. I have tried to reflect this in all the listings, but feel free to call and discuss further details of a book's condition. As it will take a long time to write up all the descriptions, some of you may wish to call and ask about a particular book you have been seeking. Meanwhile, I'll try to keep an eye on the "Wants" list. Thank you for visiting this page. I hope my father's books will eventually find happy homes; it was one of his last wishes.…
