Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. "First Edition" stated. Jacket complete but shows some spider-webbing to corners. Not price-clipped; original $2.75 price showing. German-American psychiatrist Frederic Wertham, born Friedrich Ignatz Wertheimer (1895-1981) was a "progressive psychiatrist" who "tre…ated" poor black patients at his Lafargue Clinic, opened 1946 in the basement of St. Philip's Church in Harlem and financed by voluntary donations. Additionally, in 1932 he accepted a senior staff position at the Bellevue "Mental Hygiene Clinic," at which all convicted felons from the New York Court of General Sessions received a psychiatric examination, intended to be used in sentencing. Wertham, who eventually became director of the insane asylum, remains best-known for his 1954 book "Seduction of the Innocent," and for his subsequent related testimony before the Kefauver anti-crime commission, in which he asserted that comic books featuring violence, re-animated corpses, and scantily-clad ladies caused youthful readers to become juvenile delinquents. The threat of censorship following his inflammatory charges led directly to the creation of the supposedly voluntary "Comics Code," which in turn led to the eradication of most "EC Comics" titles and the subsequent dominance of their dumbed-down "DC" rivals, full of "sanitized super-heroes," the code having banned not only violent or disturbing images but also specific words and concepts ("terror," "zombies") while dictating that criminals must always be seen to be punished. Demonstrating that psychiatrists in general may be as much in need of help as their "patients," Wertham testified that he found images of female nudity concealed in drawings of muscles and tree bark, that Batman and Robin were homosexual lovers, and that he knew comics caused delinquency because 95 percent of children in reform schools read comic books. (Thank goodness he didn't catch any of them reading "Silent Spring" or "Rules for Radicals"!) After Wertham's manuscript collection at the Library of Congress was unsealed in 2010, Carol Tilley, University of Illinois librarian and professor of Information Science, investigated his research and found his conclusions to be largely made-up hokum. In 2012, Tilley wrote "Wertham manipulated, overstated, compromised, and fabricated evidence -- especially that evidence he attributed to personal clinical research with young people -- for rhetorical gain." Here, Wertham details the non-fiction case (albeit with names changed) of a 17-year-old Italian-American youth from New York's tenements who murdered his own mother. Includes lengthy autobiographical passages attributed to the young killer. This copy is Inscribed in Wertham's hand to the otherwise blank FFE "To Artie Shaw with unbounded respect & admiration -- / Your old pal, / Friede W." (including the "i" from the original German spelling.) Artie Shaw (born Arthur Jacob Arshawsky, 1910-2004) was of course the American clarinetist, composer, and band leader, who also wrote published fiction and non-fiction ("The Trouble With Cinderella.") Widely regarded as "one of jazz's finest clarinetists," Shaw led one of the most popular big bands in the late 1930s and early 1940s, being best known for his breakthrough 1938 recording of Cole Porter's "Begin the Beguine." Shaw signed Billie Holiday as his band's vocalist in 1938, becoming the first white band leader to hire a full-time black female singer to tour the segregated South. After recording "Any Old Time," however, Holiday left the band due to hostility from audiences in the South, as well as from music company executives. Shaw was famously married eight times (though never to Lena Horne), including to Lana Turner (1940), Ava Gardner (1945-46), and "Forever Amber" author Kathleen Winsor (1946-48; annulled.) How he and Dr. Wertham came to be "pals" we do not know. Books signed by the intriguing (if somewhat odd) Dr. Wertham are uncommon. 270 pp. including Index. Reduced from $1,000. Inscribed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Edition: First Edition First and only edition of this important and now scarce textbook of neuropathology, used in medical schools throughout the world following publication. By Frederic Wertham, M.D. (1895-1981), formerly Associate in Psychiatry at Johns Hopkins and Senior Psychiatrist at Belle…vue, and Florence Wertham, formerly Charlton Fellow in Medicine at Johns Hopkins. With an introduction by Adolf Meyer, M.D., Psychiatrist-in-Chief, Johns Hopkins Hospital. New York: The Macmillan Company, 1934. 538 pp. plus 166 plates. Florence Hesketh Wertham drew all 166 cell plate illustrations, working from histological preparations she made herself. The plates — reproduced by aquatone process — are the visual core of the work, documenting normal and pathological brain tissue at the cellular level across conditions including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, syphilitic brain lesions, epilepsy, cerebral arteriosclerosis, and general paresis. The introduction by Adolf Meyer, the dominant figure of American psychiatry in the early 20th century, gives the work particular standing. Wertham received the first psychiatric grant awarded by the National Research Council for the research underlying this book. He also published the first study on the effects of mescaline and did pioneer work on insulin use in psychotherapy during this period. Wertham is now perhaps better known for Seduction of the Innocent (1954) and his role in the comic book hearings, but also for founding the Lafargue Clinic in Harlem and for research on racial segregation cited in Brown v. Board of Education. His papers are held at the Library of Congress. Condition: Original dark brown cloth with gilt titling and decoration to spine. Boards generally solid with light wear; cloth fraying and losses at head of spine and at both spine corners — the primary condition issue. Interior pages clean and bright with minimal toning; text legible throughout. All 166 aquatone plates present and intact. No dust jacket. No ownership inscriptions noted. Carefully packed and shipped in a box. Shipped via USPS with tracking provided. International shipping available. Additional photographs available upon request. bSCI 1d.
