Paperback. Condición: As New condition. No jacket, as issued. Advance Reading Copy [First Edition]. New York: W. W. Norton & Company, 2005. As New condition. Review copy. Softcover. 6" wide by 9.25" tall. Bright, clean, square, tight, and unmarked. Not a remainder. No owner's name or bookplate. Pages are fresh and crisp, apparen…tly never read. No underlining. No highlighting. No margin notes. Laid-in is a typed letter from the publisher to Tamar Jacoby [justice editor for Newsweek, deputy editor of the New York Times op-ed page, and a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute]. From the rear cover: "A landmark defense of civilization that illuminates the political degradations and intellectual fetishisms of our world. From the author of THE HARVEST OF SORROW and one of the world's most respected humanists comes this long-awaited work of history and philosophy. THE DRAGONS OF EXPECTATION -- in the tradition of Isaiah Berlin's THE CROOKED TIMBER OF HUMANITY and George Orwell's ESSAYS -- brilliantly traces how seductive ideas have come to corrupt modern minds, to often-disastrous effects. From the onset of the Enlightenment to the excesses of democracy, Stalinism, and liberalism, Robert Conquest masterfully examines how false nostrums have infected academia, politicians, and the public, showing how their reliance on 'isms' and the destructive concepts of 'People, Nation, and Masses' have resulted in a ruinous cycle of turbulence and war. Including analyses of Russia's October Revolution, World War II, and the Cold War that challenge common historical views, THE DRAGONS OF EXPECTATION is one of the most important contributions to modern thought in recent years." . Advance Reading Copy [First Edition]. Softcover. As New condition/No jacket, as issued. 272pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. New two-toned paper boards with copper lettering to spine in a new dust jacket. 8vo. (6.5 x 1 x 9.25 inches). Clean text free of marks or underlining. Includes appendices [2], select bibliography and an index. 272 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with track…ing. A landmark defense of civilization that illuminates the political degradations and intellectual fetishisms of our world. The publication of The Dragons of Expectation in 2005 reaffirmed Robert Conquest's stature as a leading intellectual and one of the world's great humanists. In the tradition of Isaiah Berlin's The Crooked Timber of Humanity and George Orwell's Essays, this book brilliantly traces how seductive ideas have come to corrupt modern minds; to often disastrous effects. In what Publishers Weekly called "a frontal assault on the pieties of the left," Conquest masterfully examines how false nostrums have infected academia, politicians, and the public, showing how their reliance on "isms" and the destructive concepts of "People, Nation, and Masses" have resulted in a ruinous cycle of turbulence and war. Including fresh analyses of Russia's October Revolution, World War II, and the Cold War, The Dragons of Expectation is one of the most important contributions to modern thought in recent years.
