Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. 1st Edition. First Edition (Number Line to 1). This book was previously owned by the renowned sociologist Daniel Bell. He signed his name on the first front end paper. He took very good care of the book. It is in excellent condition. The black covers are exceptio…nally clean. The red and gilt lettering on the spine is very bright. The covers edges look terrific. So do the corners. The spine ends have only a little bit of crinkling. The book is very solidly bound from cover to cover with nicely tight pages throughout and nicely tight covers as well. The pages are exceptionally clean. Scrolling through, I'm not finding any soiling. I'm also not seeing any conspicuous creasing, a handful of consecutive pages have a teeny tiny crease just above the tip of their bottom corners, nothing much of anything. There are no markings in the book. There are no attachments. And Daniel Bell's signature is the only writing to be found anywhere. Part of the front inside cover and most of the signed front end paper have a lightly tanned area, looks like some paper must've been left sitting inside there. I've rated the dust jacket only Good because it has a thin tear coming up from the rear bottom edge. The tear connects to a scratch-shaped crease and at the bottom of it there is a small scuff (you can see this in the fourth photo). There's also a little wear at the top edge of the spine, a little color loss there, a teeny tiny tear. There's a small tear off the top edge of the rear cover as well. The jacket looks pretty clean. The flaps as well. They are in good shape. The jacket is NOT price-clipped. I have it in a fitted protective cover. From the dust jacket : 'Christopher Jencks' Inequality is a landmark in social and educational thought in America-- for it presents the evidence to overturn the most cherished assumptions of liberal reform in our society. Jencks and his associates challenge much of contemporary social policy with these startling conclusions: educational reform cannot bring about economic or social equality; genes and IQ scores have relatively little effect on economic success; and school quality has little effect on achievement or on economic success.' I feel I need to say 'what'? The authors 'conclude that even if the schools could be reformed to ensure that every child received an equally good education, adult society would hardly be more equal than it is now. If we really want to achieve equality in America, we must be willing to undertake far more fundamental social and economic changes than school reforms.'.

Trade Paperback. Condición: Near Fine. Book is in excellent condition with covers showing light shelf wear/scuffing only with creaseless covers and spine. Binding is solid and square, text/interior is clean and free of marking of any kind. Publisher's sticker on front. A great many full page color prints. 463 pages. Producing a…book on fashion in the 1980s is not merely a question of immortalizing one of the most feverish periods of invention, creativity, and variety in our recent history. It also means providing a window on the increasingly pervasive advance of show-business society, and on the origins of the designer "total living" environment in which we are now permanently submerged. Ralph Lauren pillowcases, anyone? How about a sip of Absolut from my Calvin Klein Home champagne glasses? ~Excess: Fashion and the Underground in the 80s chronicles the achievements of the fashion establishment in Italy and the rest of the world via its protagonists and trends. It considers the who, what, where, when, and why of an industry that has become an economic phenomenon, with enormous influence on global culture and communication. It catalogues a world in which fashions by Armani, Versace, Valentino, Gianfranco Ferr, Fendi, Missoni, Moschino, Dolce & Gabbana, Fiorucci, Thierry Mugler, Jean Paul Gaultier, Vivienne Westwood, Katherine Hamnett, Azzedine Alaa, Calvin Klein, and John Galliano appear in magazines like Vogue, Elle, Donna, Mondo Uomo, Harpers Bazaar, The Face, i-D, Interview, Vanity Fair, GQ, and Visionaire. It features work by 80s hotshot artists like Helmut Newton, Bruce Weber, Cindy Sherman, Nan Goldin, Andy Warhol, Jenny Holzer, Robert Mapplethorpe, Barbara Kruger, Gilbert & George, Pierre et Gilles, and Leigh Bowery.~Empirically organized as an index, Excess offers an indispensable point of reference for fashionistas, critics, and students. Rather than operating chronologically, it functions thematically, under such categories as Career Women, Sexy Women, American Gigolo, Night Clubbing, Wild Boys, Yuppies, and Graffiti. A special section curated by Peter de Potter is dedicated to the Neo 80s, featuring fashions by Jeremy Scott, Louis Vuitton, Berhard Willhelm, Balenciaga, Veronique Branquinho, and Bottega Veneta, as seen in the pages of Butt, Dazed & Confused, SleazeNation, Spin, Self Service, and Another Magazine. Additionally included are a series of appendices--equally balanced between mainstream and underground--which catalogue the new professions, new words, and new fashions.
