Octavo, gray cloth (hardcover), 204 pp. Very Good, with foxing (age darkened spotting) to page edges, edgewear; in a Fair, mylar protected dust jacket with edgewear that includes large chips. From dust jacket: Four years ago Philip Wylie hurled into the sea of American smugness a literary stone entitled Generation of Vipers. Its early ripples became a tidal wave. For Mr. Wylie's judgments and prophecies proved to be shockingly accurate. Today many ideas which he introduced appear everywhere as the themes of editorials, magazine articles and books. The hundred-odd thousand who bought Generati of Vipers -- the million-odd-readers -- (its popularity still increases) realized that Philip Wylie was not a mere catalyst or debunker but that he had thrown a chip from a Philospher's stone. Enthralled, overwhelmed, confirmed in their own intuitions, uproariously diverted and at times plain infuriated -- the multitude of Vipers fans (the nane they gave to themselves) have written literally bushels of letters to Mr. Wylie asking when he intended to present his philosophy entire. An Essay on Morals is their answer. Philosophy, American Culture, Americana. zslic.
