About This Item

New York: Basic Books, 1973. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. First edition. xiii, 507pp. Tan cloth with blue spine lettering. Review copy with publisher's slip laid in. Fine in Near Fine unclipped dust jacket, a little curled along top edge and lightly worn at head, back flap creased. A lovely copy of the American sociologist's prescient work that popularized the now ubiquitous term "post-industrial society." It predicted the growth of the service sector, the unprecedented influence of corporations on public life, a drastic change in how Americans work, and the importance of recognizing "intellectual technology"-- concomitent with today's "creative class" and "knowledge economy." Rare in collectible condition.
