On October 25 1946, in a crowded room in Cambridge, England, the great 20th century philosophers Ludwig Wittgenstein and Karl Popper came face to face for the first and only time. The meeting, which lasted ten minutes, did not go well. Their loud and aggressive confronttion became the stuff of instant legend, but precisely what happened during that brief confrontation remianded for decades the subject of intense disagreement. An engaging mix of philosophy, history, biographyand literary detection, this book explores through this confrontation, the history of pohilosophy in the 20th century. At the center of the story stand the two ginats of philosophy themselves, proud, irascible, larger than life, and spoiling for a fight.

Hardcover. First Edition, First Printing. As New in an As New dustjacket. Gray boards with a dark gray, silver-stamped backstrip. 352pps. An excellent, collector's-quality copy: clean, tight, square, and bright. All tips are sharp. Yet to be read. The dustjacket, glossy in a mylar sleeve, is equally fine; the original price is intact. "After a shattering incidence of violence in New York City, Daniel Emerson has returned to the Hudson River town where he grew up. There, along with Kate Ellis and her daughter, Ruby, he settles into the kind of secure and comfortable family life he longed for during his emotionally barren childhood. But then he falls in love with Iris Davenport, the black woman whose son is Ruby's best friend. During a freak October blizzard, Daniel is stranded at Iris's house, and they spend the night together -- the beginning of a sexual liaison that eventually imperils all their relationships, Daniel's profession, their children's well-being, their own race-blindness, and their view of themselves as essentially good people. And the emotional stakes are raised even higher when Iris's husband, Hampton, suffers a devastating accidental injury at Daniel's hands."

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Wesley Allsbrook (illustrator). 1st Edition. This book, or a version of it, was one of the last projects that Bourdain started - with the help of his assistant ("lieutenant" as he liked to call her) and co-author, Laurie Woolever. And I'd say that Laurie Woolever's name deserves to be writ as large as that of Anthony Bourdain. She has managed to cobble together a fascinating book. 43 of the many places in the world that AB visited are discussed in alphabetical order, with ABs quotes printed in blue (and you realize what a craftsman this guy was at stringing words together), mixed in with travel guide stuff and recommendations for hotels and restaurants. Woolever did another posthumous homage to her boss with "Bourdain: The Definitive Oral Biography" (also known as "Bourdain: In Stories") also in 2021. This fine copy in its fine dust jacket is a first printing and is signed on the title page by Laurie Woolever. Signed by a contributor.

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Debut collection of eight short stories from this talented writer. Most of the stories deal with Americans abroad, coping with the culture shock of third world upheavals. This book, and his follow-up novel, "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk", were much lauded and won all sorts of awards. (The novel was made into a 3D, highly technological, film by Ang Lee which, despite having such actors as Steve Martin, Vin Diesel, Chris Tucker and Kristen Stewart in supporting roles, did not achieve much success.) This copy of the first printing is inscribed by the author on the title page thus: "For Andy Weinberger, with thanks for reading Che and making it a Book Sense pick. 'Where no one in his right mind would want to go' - my wife agrees with you. Again, many thanks - Ben Fountain - Dallas, Texas, 8-22-06". So, Andy Weinberger is, or was, the co-owner of a bookstore in Sonoma, California (a bookmark from Readers' Books is laid in), and a Book Sense pick is a promotional activity run for independent bookstores by the American Booksellers Association. I'm not sure what Ben's quotation is - perhaps a line from the book? August 2006 was the month of publication. To add interest to this already interesting copy, a three-page printout is loosely inserted, being an article on Ben Fountain by Zac Crain of D Magazine. Apart from slight softening to base of spine, a fine copy in fine dust jacket. MC. Inscribed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Evan Sung (photographer) (illustrator). Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto provides a lengthy and quite personal introduction to this, his second cookbook. He purposely chose to pay homage to Julia Child's "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" because he wants to do for Japanese home cooking what Julia did for French cuisine. These are Morimoto's favorite dishes - meals that he would "whip up for you and your family in your kitchen if I could." This later printing of the first edition is boldly signed by Morimoto on the title page in Japanese. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. Quite a heavy book, so overseas buyers may well need to expect additional shipping charges. Signed by Author(s).
