With the ownership inscription to top of title-page of Dr Otto F. Ehrentheil (1897-1983); he arrived in the US from Vienna in November 1938 and assisted family and friends to escape Nazi occupied Europe. His publications include "Clinical Medicine and the Psychotic Patient", 1960. "In 1928 the significantly named Verein Ernst Mach (Ernst Mach Society) was set up by members of the circle with the avowed object of 'propagating and furthering a scientific outlook' and 'creating the intellectual instruments of modern empiricism'. To welcome Schlick back to Vienna in 1929 from a visiting professorship at Stanford California, Carnap, Hahn, and Neurath prepared a manifesto under the general title 'Wissenschaftliche Weltauffassung, Der Wiener Kreis' (The Scientific World View: The Vienna Circle). This manifesto traced the teachings of the Vienna Circle back to such positivists as Hume and Mach, such scientific methodologists as Helmholtz, Poincare, Duhem, and Einstein, to logicians from Leibniz to Russell, utilitarian moralists from Epicurus to Mill, and to such sociologists as Feuerbach, Marx, Herbert Spencer, and Karl Menger. Significantly absent were any representatives of the 'German tradition' - even, although somewhat unfairly, Kant." John Passmore in "The Encyclopedia of Philosophy".
