About this Item

Presentation copy of the Second Edition, inscribed by Popper to 'Alfred and Hilde' [Braunthal], Christmas 1967. Original cloth. Very Good. Braunthal (1897-1980), a noted refugee economist, was a close friend of Popper in Brussels in the 1930s. 'The main outline was completed by 1935; it was first read, in January or February 1936, as a paper entitled 'The Poverty of Historicism', at a private session in the house of my friend Alfred Braunthal in Brussels' (Popper, The Poverty of Historicism, 1957, p. iv).
