Single Issue Magazine. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. San Francisco: Sierra Club, 1923. First Edition. Vol XI, No. 4, for 1923. This was published during a several-year time period when the Sierra Club did not stipulate the month of an issue, just the volume, the number, and the year - monthly designations for such an infrequent publication having always been somewhat unnecessary in any case. Original printed wrappers, 9 1/4" x 6 1/4", 115 pp. + numerous unpaginated photographic plates, features and ads, including a fold-out map (Grouse Meadows to Vidette Meadow) and a fold-out wide-angle photograph by W.H. Wright. Gray stapled wraps, rather than the usual medium brown. Very Good; circuit binding (yapp binding) was used, in which cover edges were intentionally extended out beyond page edges, but over time the extended part becomes pressed inward somewhat (see scan). Some damage at inside front hinge area, and some spine sunning and abrasion. A handsome copy. See scans. Binding sturdy, contents fine. See scan of contents page for the lineup of stellar club writers and their always engaging and adventurous topics. In addition to the graphics mentioned above, this issue is chock full of photographic plates by the club's best photographers, as well as others, including Robert L. Lipman, A.C. Lovekin, J.S. Hutchinson, James K. Moffitt, Ansel F. Hall, Frank A. Williamson, C.O. Schneider, W. Harris (an 1867 shot), Con L. Grover, Frederick H. Morley, Walter L.

Soft Cover. Condition: Fine. First Edition Thus. 1985 date at title page. Scarce near fine translation of this classic work. Light shelf wear. Pages near fine; no writing. Bind fine, square. Features a new introduction by Lawrence H. White. Carl Menger (1840-1921) was the founder of the Austrian School of economics. Foundational Austrian economist looks at "method". Menger's method emphasized the subjective theory of value, arguing that prices arise from individuals' subjective valuations; rather than production costs. His approach rejected historical or cost-based explanations, focusing instead on how marginal utility guides human choice and market exchange. From review: "Best of this volume could be considered: Menger's groundbreaking discussion of the "organic" origin of money, law, markets, and social institutions. Menger combines Burke's critique of "the spirit of innovation" with Karl von Savigny's historical insights into the origins of customary law. Menger insists that there are many facets of common law, custom, and inherited social institutions like money and markets that advance common welfare. These ideas heavily influenced F.A. Hayek's revival of spontaneous order theorizing in the mid 20th century. Menger's analysis of the organic origins of law and money carries lasting weight beyond the confines of now-forgotten 19th century disputes in the German speaking world. Menger's groundbreaking analysis of the emergence of money and law may draw inspiration from Burke and Savigny, but goes beyond in the uniqueness of his insights and analytical clarity. And, note that the best sections on law and money are less than half the book. The rest possibly can be safely ignored. Recommended are the three chapters of Book III (on organic development) and the lengthy Appendix VIII (on law). This should suffice for most and the rest is additionally useful for the specialized scholar. Printed in the United States of America. 237 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.
