Rare First Edition of "one of the most influential books of the 20th Century" The Lonely Crowd
First edition of this landmark work. Octavo, original cloth. In near fine condition.
The Lonely Crowd is considered by many to be the most influential book of the twentieth century. Its now-classic analysis of the 'new middle class' in terms of inner-directed and other-directed social character opened exciting new dimensions in our understanding of the psychological, political, and economic problems that confront the individual in contemporary American society. "[T]he best-selling book by a professional sociologist in American history . . . [with] the widest influence on the nation at large" (Orlando Patterson, New York Times).
