Description

Beautifully rebound copy of the 1909 Minority Report in marbled boards. A very small amount of faint highlighting in ink. No other marks or inscriptions to slightly yellowed pages. No creasing to marbled covers or to spine. A clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. The first few pages have been professionally reworked. 716pp. The four authors did not agree with the Majority Report from the Commission so this Separate Report was written and published along with the main report. From the Personal Library of the late Emeritus Professor Peter Townsend of Bristol University and the London School of Economics, Founding Professor of the University of Essex and founder of the Child Poverty Action Group. We are also selling a large number of other books from Professor Townsend's Collection including many of his signed and authored works.
