A first edition, first printing of Authority and the Individual by Bertrand Russell, published by George Allen & Unwin, London in 1949. A near fine book free from internal inscriptions, with toning to the head of the spine, hinge of the spine and top edge of front and rear boards. Top stain is a little faded, spotting to the fore-edge of text block. In a near fine, unclipped wrapper with fading to the spine and some toning to extremities. Authority and the Individual by Bertrand Russell is a series of six lectures exploring the balance between social order and individual freedom in modern society. Delivered in 1949, Russell examines how institutions like government, education and religion shape behaviour, often at the expense of personal liberty. He warns against totalitarianism while advocating for rational governance, creative freedom and ethical responsibility. The work reflects Russell's deep concern for humanity's future amid technological change, political power and the threat of conformity.
