Item description from seller

292 Pp + 6 Page Catalog Dated 1950. Ramsey's Papers 1923 - 1929, Published Posthumously In 1931, Here Reprinted In 1950 [And Still In Print]. Book With Wear, Spine Gilt Worn But Still Entirely Present; Foyle's Book Store Label On Front Pastedown; About 2-3 Dozen Pages With Very Light (And Erasable) Pencil Lines Or Marginalia; Binding Cracked At Least One Place But Binding Quite Sound. Dust Jacket Worn, Chipped At Corners, Slightly Browned And Foxed. As Moore Writes In His Preface, "The Author Of The Papers Collected In This Volume Seemed To Me To Combine Very Exceptional Brilliance With Very Great Soundness Of Judgment In Philosophy. He Was An Extraordinarily Clear Thinker And Had, Moreover, An Exceptional Power Of Drawing Conclusions From A Complicated Set Of Facts. And, With All This, He Produced The Impression Of Also Possessing The Soundest Common Sense. Ramsey Was Not Only Exceptionally Capable Of Thinking Clearly Himself; He Also Had A Most Uncommon Power Of Explaining Clearly To Others What He Thought And Why He Thought It". Ramsey Was One Of The "Profoundest Thinkers" Of The Cambridge Group, A Friend Of Wittgenstein, Who Died At The Age Of 26.
