Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. A heavy octavo of almost 3 lbs., "very good" in a very-good jacket with a half-inch closed tear at top of front panel where it meets the spine. Bottom of jacket front panel has been price-clipped. Some scattered light brown speckling (foxing) to top and front page edges. The author was a Professor of Philosophy, Harvard University, and while not a declared socialist, was in fact a leveler, contending it's "unjust" for members of the working class to fare worse overall than those born into the "entrepreneurial" class, since it's the duty and proper role of society to distribute wealth and goods more or less equally. So, we're supposed to believe it was only because they were born into wealthy and privileged "entrepreneurial" families that wealth and influence (unjustly) crowned the labors of bobbin boy-turned telegraph messenger Andrew Carnegie; John D. Rockefeller (son of a con man who abandoned his family, a boy who started his business career at 16 as a bookkeeper's assistant at 50 cents a day); seventh-grade dropout turned gas station operator Harland Sanders; impoverished orphan Andrew Jackson; truck driver Elvis Presley, and apprentice meat cutter John Jacob Astor? One of the main reasons such success stories have become less common in America is the tax and regulatory burden imposed on savings and investment by the redistributionist, confiscatory schemes of "economic justice" promoted by the levelers allowed to shelter from the real economic consequences of such tyranny over the aspirations of the human soul at places like (the vastly endowed) Harvard University. 607 pp. including Index.
