Toronto: Alfred A. Knopf Canada, 2008. Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. Signed by Author(s). First Edition.. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Complete number line, in descending order from 10 to 1. "Although the United States regards itself as the most advanced country on Earth, Ronald Wright reveals how it is also deeply archaic: a stronghold of religious extremism, militarism, and so-called modern beliefs -- in limitless growth, endless progress, unfettered capitalism, and a universal mission -- that have fallen under suspicion elsewhere, following two World Wars and the reckless looting of our planet." Black cloth w/silver spine lettering, 368 pages (including notes, bibliography, acknowledgments, index). Faint soil mark to bottom edge, light general wear, in lightly rubbed dust jacket w/light edgewear, thin scratches, impressions, faint full-length vertical impression to right portion of front panel..
