New York, Heritage Press, 1964. First Edition Thus. Hardcover. Size: Large 8vo 9" - 10. Sturdy, attractive, tightly bound in hardcover format, generally clean, unmarked interior, minimal rubbing to extremities. A justly dubbed classic in Ancient Greece history and culture, politics and poetics, a fine exemplar of Heritage Press production standards and with Sandglass pamphlet laid in. Aristotle's classic work is edited by Benjamin Jowett and S.H. Butcher and with an Horace M. Kallen. Leonard Baskin's fine black-and-white engravings grace the frontis and throughout the text. Twenty-three centuries after its compilation, the Politics, as it's known, still asks central questions. His analysis is based upon 150 different city constitutions and a wide range of political issues to try to establish what's best for men (not women and slaves) and city function. Aristotle believed that city constitutions should be ideal in and of themselves but also serve men's just needs, the ones accorded by man, "a political animal." Brown decorated cloth over boards. 331 pp.tial.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. . . . Fine

Terms of Sale

I've done my best to state clearly and truthfully the condition of each and every book I have listed on-line. Sometimes, however, books change condition insofar as they sit on the shelf for a long time, get moved by customers, get taken to and from book fairs, and so on. Most orders will ship within one to two business days, but often times, they will go out on the same day as they are ordered. I've based my shipping costs on the assumption of books weighing 2.2 LB, or 1 KG. If your book order is heavy or oversized (extra thick, extra long, etc.), I may contact you to let you know that extra shipping is required. Bubble mailers and boxes will be expertly and securely wrapped and monitored. Please contact us if there is anything extra or different you need us to do.
