| CRAWSHAY-WILLIAMS, RUPERT The Comforts of Unreason: a Study of the Motives behind Irrational Thought. London, Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co. 1947. Hard Cover. Second impression. 8vo, black cloth, gilt title lettering, 206 pages, selected bibliography, index. VG+ in original dustjacket. Extract from a review by Bertrand Russell of this book: "Mr.Crawshay-Williams deals with the various tricks and devices, conscious and unconscious, by means of which we persuade ourselves that things are as we should wish them to be - or persuade others that things are as we wish those others to believe them to be. The subject is one which, in the hands of of less kindly author, might lead to biting satire, suggesting contempt for the reader, but as Mr.Crawshay-Williams treats it, it becomes a cooperative enterprise; one imagines him saying: You and I, dear reader, of course wish to be reasonable, but we know it is difficult. I have caught myself out often in lapses into comfortable myth; let us see whether we can jointly avoid this dangerous habit.". Very Good/Very Good. GBP 15.00 [Appr.: EURO 16.75 US$ 24.92 | JP¥ 2201] Book number: 1728 Click here to order or inquire at Books with care. |
