About This Item
Tight, square, uncreased spine has some light sunning. A small instance of former owner writing in ink to the first (promotional) leaf, but interior is else clean and unmarked. A subtle one-inch crease to the back cover, but no other notable shelf-wear. What is the Occam's-razor explanation for the sharpening effect a cardboard pyramid, modeled after the dimensions of the Great Pyramid of Giza and patented by Czech radio engineer Karel Drbal in 1959, has on a razor blade left inside it overnight? 'All the best science' writes botanist/zoologist/biologist/anthropologist/ethologist Watson in this sprawling and fascinating study, 'has soft edges, limits that are still obscure and extend without interruption into areas that are wholly inexplicable.' Eye-catching neon cantaloupe cover to this one, with a great example of the 1970s slab-serif revival in the use of Dave West's nineteenth-century wood type–influenced Behemoth Semi-Condensed. 310 pp. Mass-market Paperbacks.
