Hard Cover. First Edition. First UK Edition in dustwrapper priced £6.25 to the inside flap. Publisher's black boards with silver lettering to the spine. A hint of dustiness to the top edge otherwise a fine copy in a near fine dustwrapper with minor age toning to the back panel. Rare. Author's first book and only Science Fiction thriller in which drugs are able - at least in California - to make thoughts real. Great dustwrapper illustration.
