Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. WORKING THE MIND. First Edition, 1932. Excellent Copy. No Foxing. First edition of John Steeksma's classic self-improvement and educational work, written to help readers develop their powers of thought and judgement rather than simply accumulate knowledge.
