Why are his statements so startlingly relevant today? Here for the first time in book form are the writings and debates of Clarence Darrow that reveal why he was such a force to be reckoned with in the court of law and in the court of public opinion. The great attorney's pronouncements, ranging from the Negro problem and politics to non-violent resistance and social action, contribute to a re-evaluation of America's destiny. Typical of Darrow: "Revolution is nurtured by unjust oppression." On Negroes: "Nobody will come to boost you up; you must suffer and many of you must die before the victory will be won." On prohibition: "What kind of poem would you get out of a glass of ice-water?" His famous essays, "Why I Am an Agnostic" and "How to Pick a Jury," are included in this remarkable collection. His short stories, "The Breaker Boy" and "Little Louis Epstine," lend a poignant climax to his known sympathy for the underdog. Clarence Darrow was born in Kinsman, Ohio, in 1857. He was a product of the American imagination and its frontier yearning for freedom and democracy. Darrow found that he could best express his energies in the field of law. But he turned to writing as a means of influencing a broader audience. Through his essays and fiction, with their suspender-stretching and urbane mixture of wit, lawyer's logic, satire, and sentiment, Darrow became the attorney for the public conscience. His beliefs remain a part of America's continuing social philosophy, his battles are epics in our politics and sociology, and his courtroom strategies are legal psychology of the highest order. Here in this book is Darrow, the attorney, the philosopher, the dreamer, the practical cogitator, the Quixote who ground the windmills to a crushing stop. His writings are a touchstone for our age of crisis. Verdicts Out of Court brings together for the first time the passion of a lifetime devoted to lonely victories "because I believed the cause was worthwhile." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Very Good. See scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science, 1973. The May, 1973 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. "Science and Public Affairs" time period. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover since 1947, two years after the publication's inception - is not at this time period on the cover, but shows as twelve minutes to midnight on the contents page. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 56 pp. Very Good; modest soil and spots of external touch-wear, and a front-cover subscriber mailing label to a Hampshire College professor. Contents are immaculate but for dusting at last few pages. See all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change, and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone. Some feature topics in this vintage 1973 issue: Science Exits the White House; Nixon Reorganization; Icebergs for Arab Lands; Genetic Engineering; SALT; BEIR Report; Demophora; Solar Wind; more. See scan of contents page. Very, very scarce original monthly issue. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR52.
