Torino, Societa? Anonima Tipografico Editrice Torinese, 1941. 4to (cm.33,5x23,5), brossura editoriale (mende al dorso e al margine inferiore dei piatti), pp. 96 riccamente illustrate con bellissime fotografie in nero.. Nelle ultime pagg. spellature al marg. sup. bianco con mende in una carta ma complessivamente buon es. considerata anche l’assoluta rarita? di questa opera. Testo in italiano ed in tedesco. Ricca documentazione fotografica delle attivita? sociali della Fiat per la formazione e l’assistenza degli operai, le scuole professionali, il dopolavoro, le attivita? sportive, le colonie estive. L’opera mette in evidenza il contributo delle Officine torinesi all’industria bellica, in perfetta sintonia con il Regime ed il fronte bellico italo-tedesco; significativa le foto della “gioventu? hitleriana in visita ai reparti specializzati Fiat” e la traduzione a fronte proprio in lingua tedesca. Probabilmente questo volume ha seguito le sorti delle tante opere “fascistissime”, divenute imbarazzanti e fatte sparire con il vento nuovo del dopoguerra; inoltre le vicende belliche hanno provveduto di per se a non facilitarne l conservazione. Non risulta presente nel mercato librario almeno degli ultimi trent’anni e soltanto un esemplare e? censito nelle biblioteche pubbliche italiane.

194 + xiv pages. Index. "This book tells the story of who caused the slump (Great Depression) and how they caused it, and it directs attention to two simple steps that can be taken to save our farmers and traders... The depression from which we now suffer is due to an artificially induced variation in the purchasing power of money. In these pages will be found ample evidence in support of this statement. The quarter from which the trouble is coming is indicated, and the amazing manner in which the machinery for monetary control of the world was established is traced out." - from Introduction.

Its origin was so shrouded in humble obscurity, and the rapidity with which it sprang forward to prosperity and fame was alike so extraordinary and so remarkable, that the public gaze has been kept by a species of fascination upon the movements of the well-known fianciers. From one corner of the world to the other the success of the Rothschilds has been the subject of universal wonder and envy." - from pages 1-2. Above-average wear. Front hinge open. Library binding. Usual library markings. Book

As an innovation in teaching method the possibilities are so revolutionary that no educator can afford to ignore it.

464 pages. Index. Originally published in Italian in 1931. This first English edition substantially revised. Inside front board is the bookplate of M.L. Burstein, "One of the sharpest minds in economics of the last century" - from online reference. "The depreciation of the mark of 1914-1923, which is the subject of this work, is one of the outstanding episodes in the history of the twentieth century. Not only by reason of its magnitude but also by reason of its effects, it looms large on our horizon. It was the most colossal thing of its kind in history: and, next probably to the Great War itself, it must bear responsibility for many of the political and economic difficulties of our generation. It destroyed the wealth of the more solid elements in German society; and it left behind a moral and economic disequilibrium, and breeding ground for the disasters which have followed." - Foreword. Gilt lettering legible upon blue backstrip which is sunned along with portions of each board. Bit of writing inside front board otherwise clean and unmarked. Binding intact. A sound association copy of this important work. COHEN 458. Book
pp. xv, [i] 245. Index. First printing.

Dust soiling to top edge. Binding sound. Several faint pencil erasures to contents. Dust jacket not included. A remarkably well-preserved copy.
