paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Soft cover. Condizione: Good. First Dutton paperback edition of Anthony Standen's witty and provocative critique of scientific authority, originally published in hardcover in 1950. Standen, himself a scientist, challenges the tendency to treat scientists and scientific institutions as uniquely objective, rational, and immune from the intellectual weaknesses found in other professions. With humor rather than outright hostility, he examines the assumptions, habits, institutional culture, and occasional pretensions of scientists while questioning the idea that scientific training automatically produces superior reasoning or judgment. The book became a widely discussed mid-century critique of scientific culture and remains an interesting period contribution to debates concerning scientific authority, skepticism, scientific method, and the public perception of science. 221 pages. Condition: Good. Original illustrated Dutton paperback wrappers with cover design by Milton Glaser. Wrappers show age-toning, rubbing, scattered surface wear, and light edge and corner wear. Front wrapper has creasing at the upper right corner and additional light handling wear. Spine is toned with light rubbing and wear. Small handwritten ink notation appears on the top edge of the text block. Pages show expected age-toning but appear generally clean and well preserved in the pages examined. Binding remains sound. Please see photographs for full condition. Collector/Scholarly Appeal: An early paperback edition of a notable mid-century critique of scientific culture, with an appealing period cover designed by influential graphic designer Milton Glaser.
