About This Item
New York: Farrar Straus & Giroux, 1983. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. How can you know more and more about the cosmos while knowing less and less about yourself, this despite 10,000 self help books, 100,000 psychotherapists, and 100 million fundamentalist Christians. Thus starts the story on the front flap of this funny and engaging book in very fine condition in a like jacket that is not price clipped ($14.95). Book is unopened and unread and internally flawless . A fine Percy collectible.
