Hardcover. Condizione: Good. 4th Edition. This copy belonged to Prof. Nic Wiehahn. Wiehahn was a South African labour expert and was best known for heading the Wiehahn Commission, which proposed in 1979 that black trade unions be afforded legal recognition. Gilt titling to spine. The navy blue boards are shelf-rubbed and rubbed at all extremities. The spine ends are scuffed and the edges are fraying. The top edge of the spine is split for three quarters of its length from the top and the bottom edge is starting to split. The front joint is severely cracked. Wiehahn's rubber stamp appears five times in the prelims and there is also another prev owner's name dd 1925 to the ffep. The endpapers are browned. There is an inkstain to the bottom outer corner affecting the front pastedown and all the introductory pages. The pages are rough-cut and the bottom edge of the textblock has another two of Wiehahn's rubber stamps. The 668pp of well-thumbed text are very extensively underlined and annotated - largely in pencil. There are a couple of inkblots to the text but there is virtually no foxing. Some of the pages of the publisher's catalogue at the back are uncut and there are notes to the rear endpapers. This is a volume that has been worked through very thoroughly.
